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 troykelly/claude-skills at 38a2ecc528.

    The exact upstream commit SHA that was scanned is recorded, so the result refers to specific bytes.

1 file, 287 lines
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 performs a security review of provided text, identifying potential vulnerabilities and risks. It can analyze code snippets, configuration files, or other textual data to highlight areas needing attention from a security perspective. The goal is to improve the overall security posture by proactively finding weaknesses before they are exploited.

When to use it

  • Code Review: Before deploying new code, have this skill assess for common vulnerabilities like SQL injection or cross-site scripting.
  • Configuration Audit: Review infrastructure configuration files (e.g., cloud provider settings) to ensure secure defaults and best practices are followed.
  • Policy Compliance Check: Verify that documents adhere to specific security policies or regulatory requirements.
  • Risk Assessment: Quickly identify potential risks associated with a new project or technology adoption.

Key capabilities

  • Vulnerability identification
  • Security risk assessment
  • Code analysis
  • Configuration review
  • Policy compliance checking

Example prompts

  • "Review this Python code snippet for security vulnerabilities: [code snippet]"
  • "Analyze this AWS S3 bucket policy and identify any potential risks."
  • "Check this document against the NIST 800-53 security controls."

Tips & gotchas

The skill's effectiveness depends on the clarity and completeness of the provided text. Complex or obfuscated code may yield less accurate results.
