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 thebushidocollective/han at 19caa51d5f.

    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 provides robust error handling capabilities for Go applications. It allows you to gracefully manage and report errors, ensuring your application remains stable and debuggable. The skill helps format errors with context, log them effectively, and potentially recover from certain failures.

When to use it

  • Debugging complex Go services: When encountering obscure or difficult-to-trace errors in a backend service.
  • Improving error reporting: To provide more informative error messages to users or monitoring systems.
  • Building resilient applications: To implement strategies for handling and recovering from expected failures.
  • Standardizing error handling across projects: To enforce consistent error management practices within a codebase.

Key capabilities

  • Error formatting with context
  • Effective logging of errors
  • Potential for error recovery

Example prompts

  • "Format this Go error and log it: [error object]"
  • "How can I recover from this specific error in my Go application?"
  • "Generate a standardized error response for this scenario."

Tips & gotchas

This skill assumes you have existing Go code. It's designed to enhance, not replace, your core error handling logic; familiarity with Go’s error interface is beneficial.
