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.
Pinned to a commit: passed

About this skill
What it does
This skill provides guidance and recommendations for writing clean, maintainable, and performant Node.js code. It focuses on adhering to established best practices including error handling, asynchronous programming patterns, and module organization. The skill helps developers avoid common pitfalls and produce high-quality Node.js applications.
When to use it
- Code Review: Ask the agent to review existing Node.js code for potential improvements or adherence to best practices.
- New Project Setup: Get recommendations on project structure, dependencies, and initial configuration when starting a new Node.js project.
- Debugging Performance Issues: Identify bottlenecks and suggest optimizations in slow-running Node.js applications.
- Learning Node.js: Gain insights into best practices for developers of all skill levels learning or working with Node.js.
Key capabilities
- Error handling recommendations
- Asynchronous programming patterns (e.g., Promises, async/await)
- Module organization and structure suggestions
- Code review feedback
Example prompts
- "Review this Node.js code snippet for potential improvements: [code snippet]"
- "What's the best way to handle errors in a Node.js Express route?"
- "Suggest a good project structure for a new Node.js API."
Tips & gotchas
The skill assumes some basic familiarity with Node.js and JavaScript syntax. Providing context or specific code snippets will yield more targeted and useful recommendations.
