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 failed 1 of 6 checks. A failure is not proof of bad intent; it means something in the code needs a human to look at it before you run it.

  • No obfuscated payloads: failed

    Contains 1 obfuscated or encoded payload pattern.

    No base64, hex or compressed blob is decoded and then executed, and no encoded shell commands.

    What it found

    • .archive/claude-v1/skills/version-checker/security-advisory-db.md:485marshal/pickle payload executed
      pickle.loads(untrusted_data)
  • 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 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 matteocervelli/llms at 1e1f2089eb.

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

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 version-checker skill allows an AI agent to determine the version of a software package given its name. It can compare versions using standard semantic versioning rules (e.g., "1.2.3" is greater than "1.0.0"). This facilitates automated dependency management and compatibility checks within workflows.

When to use it

  • Automated Software Updates: Determine if a software package has a newer version available before initiating an update process.
  • Dependency Compatibility Checks: Verify that the versions of required dependencies are compatible with each other.
  • Software Inventory Management: Automatically track and compare installed software versions against known good or latest releases.
  • Release Validation: Confirm a deployed application's version matches expected values during release verification steps.

Key capabilities

  • Version comparison using semantic versioning.
  • Determines the current version of a specified software package.

Example prompts

  • "What is the latest version of Python?"
  • "Is version 1.2.3 of Node.js newer than 1.0.0?"
  • "Check the version of Docker installed on this system."

Tips & gotchas

The skill relies on external data sources to determine software versions; therefore, its accuracy depends on the availability and correctness of that information. Ensure the agent has access to reliable online resources for accurate version lookups.
