Automated safety checks
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.
Declares what it does: failed
No SKILL.md was found in the skill's directory.
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

About this skill
The github-automation skill enables AI agents to interact directly with GitHub repositories, streamlining version control workflows and repository management tasks. It allows agents to execute commands, manage issues, and handle pull requests without manual intervention.
When to use it
- Automating routine repository maintenance tasks like updating dependencies or running linters.
- Creating or closing issues based on detected bugs in code analysis results.
- Managing pull request workflows by approving changes or requesting modifications.
- Deploying updates to production environments directly from the agent's execution context.
Key capabilities
- Direct interaction with GitHub API endpoints for repository management.
- Execution of shell commands within GitHub Actions workflows.
- Automated issue and pull request lifecycle management.
- Integration with version control systems for seamless code collaboration.
Example prompts
- "Create a new issue in the current repository to track the memory leak found in line 45."
- "Run the linter on the latest branch and report any errors back to me."
- "Approve the pending pull request if all checks pass and merge it into main."
Tips & gotchas
Ensure your AI agent has appropriate GitHub tokens with sufficient permissions before attempting repository modifications. Be cautious when automating destructive actions like force pushes or deleting branches without explicit confirmation mechanisms.
