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
The testing-dags skill enables AI agents to test Directed Acyclic Graphs (DAGs) used in workflow automation systems like Apache Airflow. It provides tools for validating DAG structure, detecting errors, and simulating execution paths.
When to use it
- Before deploying a new DAG to ensure it adheres to syntax and logical rules
- To identify potential issues such as circular dependencies or invalid task references
- During continuous integration pipelines to automate DAG validation
Key capabilities
- Validate DAG structure for correctness
- Detect circular dependencies in workflows
- Simulate DAG execution paths for error checking
Example prompts
- "Check if this DAG has any circular dependencies."
- "Validate the syntax and logic of my Airflow DAG."
- "Simulate the execution path of this workflow to find errors."
Tips & gotchas
- Ensure your DAG files are properly formatted before testing.
- This skill works best with DAGs written in Python for systems like Apache Airflow.
