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 assistant-ui/skills at 1ba8e9105c.

    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

The tools skill enables AI agents to interact with external systems, APIs, and utilities, allowing them to perform tasks such as data retrieval, automation, and integration. It provides a framework for connecting AI capabilities with real-world tools and services.

When to use it

  • Automating repetitive tasks like file management or data entry using command-line tools.
  • Integrating third-party APIs (e.g., weather, payment gateways) into an AI agent's workflow.
  • Enhancing an AI agent’s functionality by connecting it with local or cloud-based utilities.

Key capabilities

  • Access to system-level commands and utilities
  • Integration with external APIs and services
  • Automation of workflows through tool execution

Example prompts

  • "Run a script to back up my files."
  • "Fetch the latest weather data from the API."
  • "Execute a command to restart the server."

Tips & gotchas

Ensure that any tools or APIs used have proper permissions and security measures in place. Some system-level commands may require elevated privileges, so use them with caution.
