Install target

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 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.

  • No credential access: failed

    Touches credential material in 18 places.

    Neither the code nor the SKILL.md instructions read SSH keys, cloud credentials, keychains, token stores, browser cookie databases or dotfiles that hold secrets.

    What it found (3 of 18)

    • infrastructure/servers/ssh-configuration/SKILL.md:34SSH private keys or config
      ssh-keygen -t ed25519 -C "[email protected]" -f ~/.ssh/id_ed25519
    • infrastructure/servers/ssh-configuration/SKILL.md:37SSH private keys or config
      ssh-keygen -t rsa -b 4096 -C "[email protected]" -f ~/.ssh/id_rsa_legacy
    • infrastructure/servers/ssh-configuration/SKILL.md:40SSH private keys or config
      ssh-keygen -t ed25519 -C "ci-deploy-key" -f ~/.ssh/ci_deploy -N ""
  • 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 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 bagelhole/devops-security-agent-skills at 0365f57a07.

    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 allows an AI agent to generate and modify SSH configuration files. It can create configurations for connecting to remote servers, manage key forwarding, and configure various SSH options. The agent can also help troubleshoot existing SSH configurations by identifying potential issues or suggesting improvements.

When to use it

  • Automating the setup of new development environments with secure SSH access.
  • Generating SSH configuration files for jump hosts or bastion servers.
  • Troubleshooting connection problems and optimizing existing SSH setups.
  • Creating scripts that automatically configure SSH keys for multiple users.

Key capabilities

  • Generate basic SSH configurations
  • Manage key forwarding settings
  • Configure various SSH options

Example prompts

  • "Create an SSH configuration file to connect to [email protected]."
  • "Add a line to my SSH config to forward agent forwarding for user deploy."
  • “Generate an ssh config that uses the identity file located at /home/user/.ssh/my_key”

Tips & gotchas

The skill assumes basic familiarity with SSH configuration syntax. Incorrect configurations can lead to connection issues, so always review generated files before deploying them.
