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
The webhook-receiver-hardener skill secures incoming webhook requests by validating signatures and filtering malicious payloads before they reach your application logic. It acts as a protective gateway, ensuring only authenticated and safe data triggers downstream actions.
When to use it
- Protecting public APIs that receive frequent external calls from unauthorized access attempts.
- Filtering out malformed or suspicious JSON payloads in production environments.
- Enforcing strict signature verification for services like Stripe, GitHub, or Slack integrations.
- Preventing denial-of-service attacks by rejecting requests with invalid headers or excessive size.
Key capabilities
- Validates webhook signatures using configurable secret keys.
- Inspects request headers and body content for anomalies.
- Blocks unauthenticated or tampered payloads automatically.
- Logs security events for audit and monitoring purposes.
Example prompts
- "Set up a hardened webhook receiver for my Stripe payment notifications with signature validation."
- "Filter incoming GitHub webhooks to only accept signed requests from trusted repositories."
- "Configure the webhook hardener to reject any payload larger than 10KB or missing the X-Signature header."
Tips & gotchas
Ensure you store your webhook secrets securely and never expose them in client-side code. This skill requires a backend endpoint capable of handling raw HTTP requests with signature verification logic enabled.
