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 jeffallan/claude-skills at 1be15d8064.

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

About this skill

What it does

The spring-boot-engineer skill enables AI agents to develop, configure, and deploy Spring Boot applications. It includes capabilities such as generating boilerplate code for REST APIs, setting up database integrations, and configuring application properties.

When to use it

  • You need to rapidly prototype a backend service using Spring Boot.
  • You want to automate the creation of CRUD operations for a new microservice.
  • Your team is looking to streamline the setup of a Spring Boot project with minimal configuration.

Key capabilities

  • Generate REST controllers and service layers
  • Configure database connections (e.g., H2, MySQL, PostgreSQL)
  • Create and manage application properties files
  • Set up dependency injection and Spring components

Example prompts

  • "Generate a Spring Boot REST API for managing user data with endpoints for create, read, update, and delete."
  • "Set up a Spring Boot project with a PostgreSQL database connection and JPA repositories."
  • "Create a basic Spring Boot application with embedded H2 database and a sample controller."

Tips & gotchas

  • Ensure your environment has Java 8 or higher installed for compatibility.
  • While the skill can generate boilerplate code, it may not handle complex business logic automatically—manual refinement is often needed.
