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 failed 1 of 6 checks. A failure is not proof of bad intent; it means something in the code needs a human to look at it before you run it.

  • No undeclared network calls: failed

    Contacts 1 host that is neither well-known infrastructure nor declared in the skill's frontmatter: fullstackrecipes.com.

    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.

    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 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 andrelandgraf/fullstackrecipes at 4449331ed5.

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

About this skill

shiki-code-blocks

What it does

This skill enables AI agents to render code blocks using the Shiki syntax highlighter, providing visually distinct and color-coded output for programming languages. It transforms raw text into formatted, readable code snippets that enhance clarity in technical documentation or chat responses.

When to use it

  • Displaying complex JavaScript, Python, or Rust logic within a conversation to improve readability.
  • Generating SQL queries or configuration files (like YAML or JSON) that require precise syntax differentiation.
  • Creating tutorial content where distinguishing keywords, strings, and comments is critical for user understanding.

Key capabilities

  • Syntax highlighting support for multiple programming languages via the Shiki engine.
  • Automatic formatting of code blocks to ensure consistent visual presentation.
  • Integration with AI agent responses to deliver polished technical output without manual markdown intervention.

Example prompts

  • "Explain how a recursive function works in Python and show me the code."
  • "Generate a bash script to automate system backups and highlight the key commands."
  • "Write a React component for a user dashboard and format the JSX clearly."

Tips & gotchas

Ensure the AI agent has access to the Shiki library or a compatible environment to render the highlighting correctly. If code blocks appear as plain text, verify that the output format supports rich markdown rendering.
