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 jackspace/claudeskillz at aef4e299d1.

    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 assists with generating, validating, and modifying YAML configuration files. It can parse existing YAML, identify errors, suggest corrections, and create new YAML structures based on provided specifications or examples. The tool is designed to simplify complex YAML configurations often found in backend systems.

When to use it

  • Generating initial config: You need a basic YAML file for a new application but don't want to manually write the syntax.
  • Validating existing configs: You have a YAML file and want to ensure its structure is correct and adheres to expected standards.
  • Modifying complex configurations: You need to update specific values or sections within a large, intricate YAML configuration.
  • Converting data to YAML format: You have data in another format (e.g., JSON) and require it represented as YAML.

Key capabilities

  • YAML parsing and validation
  • YAML generation from specifications
  • Error identification and correction suggestions
  • Data conversion to YAML format

Example prompts

  • "Generate a Kubernetes deployment YAML file for a container named 'my-app' with 3 replicas."
  • "Validate this YAML: [paste YAML content here]"
  • "Convert this JSON data to YAML: [paste JSON data here]"
  • “Suggest corrections for this invalid YAML: [paste YAML content here]”

Tips & gotchas

The skill’s effectiveness depends on clear and specific instructions. Providing example YAML or a detailed description of the desired configuration will yield better results.
