Automated safety checks
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.

About this skill
What it does
This skill allows an AI agent to interact with and manage systemd services on a Linux system. It can start, stop, restart, check the status of, and enable or disable services using standard systemd commands. This provides powerful control over background processes and system functionality.
When to use it
- Troubleshooting: Diagnose issues by checking the status of failing services.
- Automated deployments: Start or stop services as part of a deployment pipeline.
- System maintenance: Enable or disable services for scheduled maintenance tasks.
- Service management: Restart services after configuration changes to apply updates.
Key capabilities
- Start systemd services
- Stop systemd services
- Restart systemd services
- Check the status of systemd services
- Enable systemd services on boot
- Disable systemd services from starting on boot
Example prompts
- "Check the status of the ssh service."
- "Restart the apache2 service."
- "Enable the nginx service to start on boot."
- “Stop the mysql service”
Tips & gotchas
The AI agent will require appropriate permissions (e.g., sudo) to manage systemd services, depending on the specific actions being performed and the system's configuration. Ensure the agent has these privileges configured correctly for successful operation.
