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 undeclared network calls: failed

    Contacts 1 host that is neither well-known infrastructure nor declared in the skill's frontmatter: api.launchdarkly.com.

    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.

  • 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 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 tech-leads-club/agent-skills at 6df68d5202.

    The exact upstream commit SHA that was scanned is recorded, so the result refers to specific bytes.

About this skill

The technical-design-doc-creator skill generates comprehensive technical design documents based on project requirements and architectural constraints. It structures output to include system diagrams, data models, API specifications, and implementation strategies for complex software initiatives.

When to use it

  • Planning a new microservices architecture requiring clear service boundaries and interaction flows.
  • Documenting database schema changes and migration strategies for legacy system modernization.
  • Creating initial design specs for internal tools to align engineering teams before development begins.
  • Drafting integration plans for third-party APIs to ensure security and compliance standards are met.

Key capabilities

  • Generates structured technical documentation covering architecture, data flow, and deployment strategies.
  • Produces system diagrams and visual representations of component interactions.
  • Defines API endpoints, request/response formats, and authentication mechanisms.
  • Outlines risk assessments, scalability considerations, and performance optimization tactics.

Example prompts

  • "Create a technical design document for a real-time analytics dashboard processing 10k events per second."
  • "Draft a design spec for migrating our monolithic user service to a serverless architecture using AWS Lambda."
  • "Generate a comprehensive design doc including data models and API contracts for a multi-tenant SaaS platform."

Tips & gotchas

Ensure you provide detailed context about existing infrastructure, security requirements, and performance targets to maximize document relevance. The skill focuses on structural planning; always have senior engineers review generated designs before final implementation.
