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 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 marius-townhouse/effective-typescript-skills at d754db2077.

    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, test-your-types, allows you to verify the types of variables and expressions within TypeScript code. It can identify type mismatches and potential errors early in development, improving code reliability and reducing runtime issues. The skill provides feedback on expected versus actual types, helping developers understand and correct type-related problems.

When to use it

  • Debugging Type Errors: When encountering unexpected behavior or errors related to TypeScript's type system.
  • Code Reviews: To quickly assess the correctness of type annotations in a codebase.
  • Learning TypeScript: As a tool for understanding how TypeScript’s type checking works and identifying common mistakes.
  • Refactoring Existing Code: When modifying codebases with complex types to ensure changes don't introduce new errors.

Key capabilities

  • Type verification of variables
  • Type verification of expressions
  • Identification of type mismatches

Example prompts

  • "Test the type of myVariable."
  • "Verify that calculateSum(a, b) returns a number."
  • "Check the types in this code snippet: [code]"

Tips & gotchas

This skill requires access to TypeScript code. The accuracy of the results depends on the correctness of the provided code and type annotations.
