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 marius-townhouse/effective-typescript-skills at d754db2077.

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

1 file, 302 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

The unify-types skill helps resolve type mismatches in TypeScript code. It intelligently infers and combines types from disparate sources, allowing for smoother integration of different data structures or function return values. This reduces the need for manual type annotations and improves code clarity by automatically aligning types where possible.

When to use it

  • When integrating components with differing type definitions.
  • To simplify complex union types in function signatures.
  • When dealing with legacy JavaScript code that lacks explicit TypeScript typing.
  • To reduce boilerplate when combining data from multiple APIs with different response formats.

Key capabilities

  • Type inference and combination
  • Automatic alignment of disparate type definitions
  • Reduction of manual type annotations
  • Improved code clarity

Example prompts

  • "Unify the types returned by these two functions: functionA and functionB."
  • "Combine the types of dataType1 and dataType2 into a single unified type."
  • "Resolve the type conflict between this variable and this function's return value."

Tips & gotchas

This skill requires a basic understanding of TypeScript types and syntax. While it automates much of the process, reviewing the inferred types is recommended to ensure accuracy and prevent unexpected behavior.
