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 srstomp/pokayokay at ef6a34d63b.

    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

This skill provides robust error handling capabilities within backend systems. It allows AI agents to gracefully manage unexpected errors, log detailed information about failures, and potentially attempt recovery actions. The skill aims to improve system stability and reduce the impact of errors on users.

When to use it

  • Automated deployments: Use this when deploying code changes to ensure that any deployment-related issues are caught and handled appropriately.
  • Data processing pipelines: Apply error handling during data ingestion, transformation, or loading processes to prevent pipeline failures.
  • API integrations: Implement robust error management when interacting with external APIs to handle potential connection problems or invalid responses.
  • Scheduled tasks: Use this skill for scheduled jobs to ensure that errors don't go unnoticed and impact future runs.

Key capabilities

  • Error logging
  • Graceful failure handling
  • Detailed error reporting

Example prompts

  • "Implement error handling for the data ingestion process."
  • "Log any API connection failures with detailed context."
  • "Ensure that deployment errors are reported to the operations team."

Tips & gotchas

This skill is most effective when integrated early in the development lifecycle. It requires appropriate logging infrastructure to be set up beforehand to capture and analyze error information effectively.
