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 travisjneuman/.claude at 050878886e.

    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 monitoring and observability capabilities, allowing you to analyze system metrics, logs, and traces. It can identify anomalies, correlate events across different systems, and provide insights into application performance. The tool aims to help users understand complex system behavior and troubleshoot issues more effectively.

When to use it

  • Troubleshooting Application Errors: Investigate the root cause of a sudden spike in error rates within an application.
  • Performance Optimization: Identify bottlenecks impacting response times for critical user workflows.
  • Capacity Planning: Analyze resource utilization trends to predict future infrastructure needs.
  • Incident Response: Quickly correlate events from multiple sources during a system outage to accelerate resolution.

Key capabilities

  • Metric analysis and visualization
  • Log aggregation and searching
  • Distributed tracing
  • Anomaly detection
  • Event correlation

Example prompts

  • "Show me the CPU utilization for my web servers over the last hour."
  • "Find all error logs related to user authentication failures in the past 24 hours."
  • "What is the latency distribution for API calls to service X?"
  • "Correlate recent application errors with changes deployed to production."

Tips & gotchas

This skill requires access to existing monitoring data sources (e.g., Prometheus, Elasticsearch). Ensure proper permissions and configuration are in place before use to avoid inaccurate or incomplete results.
