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 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 technickai/ai-coding-config at 293c4816fd.

    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, technickai-systematic-debugging, provides a structured approach to debugging code. It helps AI agents systematically identify and isolate errors by guiding them through a series of diagnostic steps. The tool aims to improve the efficiency and accuracy of debugging processes, leading to faster resolution of coding issues.

When to use it

  • Complex bugs: When facing an error that is difficult to trace or understand due to its complexity.
  • Regression testing: To systematically check for new errors introduced by recent code changes.
  • Debugging unfamiliar codebases: To provide a guided process when working with code you are not familiar with.
  • Reproducing issues: When attempting to recreate an error reported by a user or tester.

Key capabilities

  • Systematic diagnostic steps
  • Error isolation guidance
  • Structured debugging workflow
  • Regression testing support

Example prompts

  • "Debug this code and walk me through your systematic process."
  • "I'm seeing an error in the payment processing module; can you help me debug it systematically?"
  • "Run a systematic regression test on these changes to identify any new issues."

Tips & gotchas

This skill is most effective when provided with clear code and error descriptions. It may require some initial context or setup to understand the codebase being debugged.
