Not pinned. Installing fetches whatever the repository holds at the time you run the command.

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 dirnbauer/webconsulting-skills at 98b562d70f.

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

About this skill

What it does

This skill, Typo3 Rector, uses the Rector automated refactoring tool to update TYPO3 PHP codebases between major versions. It applies predefined rules to address deprecated code patterns and ensure compatibility with TYPO3 v14. It's designed to catch namespace changes, method signature updates, and other common issues that are difficult to identify manually. Note: for non-PHP migrations (FlexForms, TypoScript, Fluid, YAML), use the typo3-fractor skill instead.

When to use it

  • When upgrading a TYPO3 project to version 14.
  • To automatically correct common code patterns that are deprecated in newer versions of TYPO3.
  • As part of regular maintenance to ensure code consistency and prevent future compatibility issues.
  • Before deploying changes to a production environment running TYPO3 v14.

Key capabilities

  • Automated refactoring of TYPO3 PHP code.
  • Compatibility with TYPO3 version 14 (v14.x).
  • Detection and correction of deprecated code patterns.
  • Handles TYPO3 namespace changes and method signature updates.
  • Requires PHP 8.2 or higher to run, or the use of a container like DDEV.

Example prompts

  • "Run Typo3 Rector on my project."
  • "Perform a dry-run of Typo3 Rector to see what changes it would make."
  • "Update my TYPO3 code to be compatible with version 14 using Typo3 Rector."

Tips & gotchas

  • PHP Version Requirement: Typo3 Rector requires PHP 8.2 or higher due to the use of readonly classes and other syntax in TYPO3 v14 packages. Use DDEV or a container if your local PHP version is older.
  • Always Run: It's crucial to run Typo3 Rector; manual replacements often miss edge cases that Rector rules handle correctly.
  • Configuration: A rector.php file needs to be created in the project root for basic configuration, specifying paths and skips.
