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.
Pinned to a commit: passed

About this skill
What it does
This skill leverages z-schema to programmatically validate JSON data against a specified schema definition. It ensures data integrity by checking structure, types, and constraints before processing or storing information within backend workflows.
When to use it
- Before inserting user-submitted forms into a database to prevent malformed records.
- During API integration to verify that incoming payloads match expected request formats.
- In CI/CD pipelines to validate configuration files (e.g., YAML or JSON) before deployment.
- When processing batch data imports to filter out invalid entries early in the pipeline.
Key capabilities
- Validates JSON structures against defined schemas using
z-schema. - Enforces strict type checking, required fields, and pattern matching.
- Provides clear error reporting for non-compliant data.
- Integrates seamlessly into Node.js-based backend environments.
Example prompts
- "Validate this customer order JSON against our standard schema before saving to the database."
- "Check if the incoming API payload conforms to the required user profile structure."
- "Run a validation check on this configuration file using z-schema and report any missing fields."
Tips & gotchas
Ensure your schema definitions are accurate, as z-schema will strictly enforce them; minor deviations can cause valid data to fail. Always handle validation errors gracefully in your application logic to provide meaningful feedback to users or downstream systems.
