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 shoebtamboli/rails_claude_skills at 5b4f14b271.

    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

This skill enables AI agents to leverage Hotwire, a Ruby on Rails solution for building dynamic web applications. It facilitates creating interactive user interfaces with minimal JavaScript and allows for efficient data handling through Turbo Streams and Turbo Frames. The skill streamlines development by providing pre-built components and conventions for modern Rails application architecture.

When to use it

  • Building new Rails applications: Ideal for projects where a server-rendered, fast, and maintainable web app is desired without extensive JavaScript frameworks.
  • Modernizing existing Rails apps: Integrate Hotwire incrementally into older Rails projects to improve performance and user experience.
  • Creating real-time features: Utilize Turbo Streams to push updates to the browser from the server in response to background processes or events.
  • Developing interactive dashboards: Build dynamic data displays with minimal client-side scripting using Turbo Frames.

Key capabilities

  • Turbo Drive: Enables navigation without full page reloads.
  • Turbo Frames: Allows for targeted replacement of parts of a webpage.
  • Turbo Streams: Facilitates pushing real-time updates from the server to the browser.
  • Stimulus: A modest JavaScript framework designed to work seamlessly with Hotwire.

Example prompts

  • "Generate a Turbo Frame to display user notifications."
  • "Create a Stimulus controller for handling form submissions using Hotwire."
  • "Implement a Turbo Stream to update the dashboard with new data every minute."

Tips & gotchas

  • Requires a Ruby on Rails environment. Familiarity with Rails conventions is helpful.
  • Hotwire aims to reduce JavaScript, not eliminate it entirely; some client-side logic may still be necessary.
