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 28 Sept 2026

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
Scanned github/awesome-copilot at 6c4d33b9cf.
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 SQL Code Review skill analyzes SQL queries for syntax errors, performance issues, and best practices. It helps identify inefficient queries, potential security vulnerabilities like SQL injection risks, and suggests optimizations such as proper indexing or query restructuring.

When to use it

Before deploying a new SQL script to production to catch errors early
To review legacy SQL code for optimization opportunities
During collaborative development to ensure consistent coding standards
When troubleshooting slow-running queries in a database

Key capabilities

Syntax validation and error detection
Performance analysis and optimization suggestions
Security checks for common vulnerabilities
Code style and best practice recommendations

Example prompts

"Review this SQL query for performance issues: SELECT * FROM users WHERE id > 100"
"Check if this SQL code is vulnerable to SQL injection"
"Suggest improvements for the following query: UPDATE orders SET status = 'completed' WHERE order_id IN (SELECT id FROM temp_table)"

Tips & gotchas

Ensure your SQL dialect (e.g., PostgreSQL, MySQL) is specified for accurate review.
While the tool can flag issues, it may not always provide context-specific fixes—manual verification is recommended.
