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 vscode-rest-client-generator skill allows AI agents to generate REST client code snippets directly within Visual Studio Code. It automates the creation of HTTP requests, simplifying API testing and integration workflows. This skill streamlines development by reducing manual coding effort for common REST interactions.
When to use it
- API Testing: Quickly create a basic REST client to test an API endpoint.
- Integration Development: Generate code snippets to interact with external APIs in your projects.
- Learning & Prototyping: Experiment with different HTTP methods and parameters without writing extensive boilerplate code.
- Code Generation: Automate the creation of repetitive REST request structures within VS Code.
Key capabilities
- Generates REST client code snippets
- Works within Visual Studio Code (VS Code)
- Automates HTTP request creation
- Simplifies API testing and integration
Example prompts
- "Generate a GET request for
https://example.com/api/data." - "Create a POST request to
https://api.example.com/userswith the following JSON body:{ "name": "John Doe", "email": "[email protected]" }." - “Generate code for a PUT request to update a resource at
/items/123.”
Tips & gotchas
This skill requires Visual Studio Code to be installed and configured. The generated code is intended as a starting point and may require adjustments based on the specific API requirements.
