Live repository

Not pinned. Installing fetches whatever the repository holds at the time you run the command.

No human has reviewed this code. The checks below are a static scan of the files at one commit — nobody has run this skill or judged whether it works. A skill runs with whatever access you give your agent, so read the source before you install it.

Automated safety checks

scanned

This skill passed all 6 checks. We read its files at one commit and looked for the things that make a skill dangerous to run — not for whether it works.

  • Declares what it does: passed

    SKILL.md parses and declares a name and a description.

    SKILL.md exists, its frontmatter parses, and it declares a name and a description.

  • No undeclared network calls: passed

    Makes no network calls.

    Every host the skill dials — from its scripts, its config endpoints or the commands it tells the agent to run — is either well-known package and API infrastructure or declared in its own frontmatter. Links in documentation are not counted.

  • No obfuscated payloads: passed

    No encoded or obfuscated payloads.

    No base64, hex or compressed blob is decoded and then executed, and no encoded shell commands.

  • No credential access: passed

    Reads no keys, tokens, keychains or credential files.

    Neither the code nor the SKILL.md instructions read SSH keys, cloud credentials, keychains, token stores, browser cookie databases or dotfiles that hold secrets.

  • No pipe-to-shell installers: passed

    No pipe-to-shell or download-and-run installers.

    No `curl … | sh` pattern, in the code or in the instructions, that runs code fetched at run time.

  • Pinned to a commit: passed

    Scanned athola/claude-night-market at 9045831255.

    The exact upstream commit SHA that was scanned is recorded, so the result refers to specific bytes.

This is a static scan, not a review. It reads the skill's files; it does not run them, and it cannot tell you whether the skill is any good or whether the code does what its description says. A skill runs with whatever access you give your agent.

About this skill

What it does

The shell-review skill allows AI agents to review and analyze shell scripts. It can identify potential errors, security vulnerabilities, and inefficiencies within a script’s logic. This capability helps ensure the reliability and safety of automated tasks executed through the command line.

When to use it

  • Debugging: When a shell script produces unexpected results or errors, use shell-review to pinpoint the source of the problem.
  • Security Audits: Before deploying a shell script in a production environment, leverage shell-review to proactively identify and mitigate potential security risks.
  • Code Optimization: Improve the performance and efficiency of existing shell scripts by having the skill suggest improvements.
  • Learning & Education: New users can use it to understand best practices for writing secure and efficient shell scripts.

Key capabilities

  • Error detection in shell scripts.
  • Security vulnerability identification.
  • Efficiency analysis and optimization suggestions.

Example prompts

  • "Review this script: #!/bin/bash echo 'hello'"
  • "Analyze this bash script for potential security vulnerabilities: [script content]"
  • "Can you suggest improvements to make this shell script more efficient? [script content]"

Tips & gotchas

The skill's effectiveness depends on the quality and complexity of the provided shell script. It is best suited for scripts written in Bash or similar POSIX-compliant shells.
