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.

About this skill
What it does
The typescript-refactorer skill helps improve existing TypeScript codebases. It can identify and apply common refactoring patterns, such as extracting functions, renaming variables, and improving type safety. This leads to cleaner, more maintainable, and less error-prone code.
When to use it
- Legacy Code: Refactor older TypeScript projects that have accumulated technical debt.
- Code Reviews: Automate some of the tedious refactoring tasks during code reviews.
- Improving Readability: Enhance the clarity and structure of complex functions or modules.
- Type Safety Improvements: Identify areas where type annotations can be strengthened to prevent runtime errors.
Key capabilities
- Function extraction
- Variable renaming
- Type safety improvements
- Application of common refactoring patterns
Example prompts
- "Refactor this function to extract a helper function for calculating the total."
- "Rename this variable 'user_id' to 'userId' and update all references."
- "Improve the type safety of this code snippet, paying attention to potential
undefinedvalues."
Tips & gotchas
- The skill works best with reasonably well-formatted TypeScript code. Significant syntax errors may hinder its ability to refactor effectively.
