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 composiohq/awesome-claude-skills at be2a406907.

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

About this skill

What it does

This skill automates the process of shortening REST API endpoints. It takes a long, complex URL and transforms it into a more manageable shortlink using composio's infrastructure. This simplifies sharing and tracking API calls, particularly when dealing with lengthy or frequently used URLs.

When to use it

  • Sharing API links: Quickly generate short, shareable links for internal teams or external partners.
  • Tracking API usage: Shortened links can be tracked to monitor how often specific API endpoints are accessed.
  • Simplifying complex URLs: Reduce the visual clutter and complexity of long API endpoint URLs in documentation or reports.
  • Managing access control: Use shortlinks as a layer for managing access to sensitive API resources.

Key capabilities

  • URL shortening using composio infrastructure
  • Shareable shortlink generation
  • Tracking of shortened links (implied)

Example prompts

  • "Shorten this URL: https://example.com/api/v1/resources?param1=value1&param2=value2"
  • "Create a shortlink for https://long-api-endpoint.example.org/path/to/resource?query=string"
  • “Can you shorten this URL and give me the new link?”

Tips & gotchas

The skill relies on composio's infrastructure, so availability depends on that service. Ensure your AI agent has appropriate permissions to interact with composio if required for link tracking or management.
