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 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

    Only contacts known or declared hosts: github.com.

    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.

    Hosts contacted

    github.comsource host

  • 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 plurigrid/asi at 293ce9f76e.

    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 understand and generate Zig programming language code. It allows agents to assist with tasks like writing simple programs, explaining existing Zig code snippets, and translating logic into Zig syntax. The agent can also help debug basic Zig errors based on provided code.

When to use it

  • Code generation: Generate small utility functions or data structures in Zig for a specific purpose.
  • Code explanation: Ask the agent to explain what a piece of Zig code does, line by line.
  • Debugging assistance: Provide a snippet of Zig code with an error and ask the agent to identify potential issues.
  • Translation from pseudocode: Translate conceptual logic described in plain English into functional Zig code.

Key capabilities

  • Zig programming language understanding
  • Code generation in Zig
  • Code explanation
  • Basic debugging assistance

Example prompts

  • "Write a Zig function to calculate the factorial of a number."
  • "Explain what this Zig code does: fn main() ! { ... }"
  • "I'm getting an error 'undefined type'. What could be wrong with this Zig code?"

Tips & gotchas

The agent’s knowledge is limited to the current state of the Zig language. It may struggle with very complex or advanced Zig concepts.
