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 smartworkx/dev-context at 68091bb238.

    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 smartworkx-create-adr skill automates the creation of Architecture Decision Records (ADRs). It generates ADR files with a standardized template, including sections for context, decision, consequences, and status. This helps teams document important technical decisions in a consistent and maintainable way.

When to use it

  • When starting a new project and needing to quickly establish architectural guidelines.
  • During design reviews where key choices need to be formally recorded.
  • To ensure all team members understand the reasoning behind specific technical implementations.
  • When refactoring existing codebases to document past decisions and their rationale.

Key capabilities

  • Generates ADR files with a predefined template.
  • Standardizes documentation of architectural decisions.
  • Facilitates consistent record-keeping for technical choices.

Example prompts

  • "Create an ADR about choosing React over Angular for the frontend."
  • "Generate a new ADR documenting our decision to use microservices architecture."
  • “Draft an ADR outlining the rationale behind selecting PostgreSQL as our database.”

Tips & gotchas

The skill assumes familiarity with Architecture Decision Record (ADR) principles. While it provides a template, users should ensure the content accurately reflects the actual decision and its implications.
