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 martinholovsky/claude-skills-generator at 1086ef2567.

    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

This skill enables AI agents to establish persistent, full-duplex communication channels over a single TCP connection. It allows for real-time data exchange between the agent and servers without the overhead of repeatedly opening and closing HTTP requests.

When to use it

  • Building chat applications that require instant message delivery with minimal latency.
  • Creating collaborative tools where multiple users need simultaneous updates on a shared state.
  • Implementing live monitoring dashboards that stream server metrics or logs continuously.
  • Developing real-time gaming backends or financial trading bots requiring millisecond precision.

Key capabilities

  • Establishes long-lived connections for continuous data flow.
  • Supports full-duplex communication for simultaneous sending and receiving.
  • Reduces network overhead by maintaining a single connection per session.
  • Enables event-driven architectures for responsive applications.

Example prompts

  • "Set up a WebSocket server to broadcast real-time stock price updates to all connected clients."
  • "Implement a chat feature where messages are delivered instantly without page refreshes using WebSockets."
  • "Create a live debugging console that streams application logs from the backend to the frontend agent."

Tips & gotchas

Ensure your server infrastructure supports persistent connections and manages connection timeouts correctly to prevent resource leaks. Be mindful of firewall configurations, as some networks may block or restrict non-HTTP traffic on standard ports.
