npx skills@1.7.4 add bergside/awesome-design-skills --skill storytellingWhat it can touch
From the files and frontmatter at commit f631a09. This is how much a skill can do, not whether it is risky.
Instructions only
It is instructions only: no scripts, no named hosts and no pre-approved tools.
Pattern check
Pattern check: nothing flagged · commit f631a09 · 3 Nov 2026
We checked every text file in this skill, at commit f631a09 on 3 Nov 2026, against 45 published patterns such as download-and-run commands, hidden text and credential access. We don't run the skill, we don't read the web pages it points to, and we can't judge everything its instructions might lead an agent to do. In published tests, pattern checks like this one missed most malicious skills. Read the skill before you install it — especially anything it asks you to download or run.
Format check
Each agent reads SKILL.md a little differently. We check the file against each one's published rules; we don't run the skill in any agent.
Agent Skills specPasses
The open format from agentskills.io, held to the strictest version of each rule among the agents we check.
- Note
Reference files that SKILL.md doesn't link: DESIGN.md. Anthropic suggests linking every reference file directly from SKILL.md. B4
Fix: Link each one from SKILL.md and say when to read it.
- Note
Claude CodePasses
Claude Code reads its own extra fields, ignores unknown ones, and still loads a skill whose frontmatter is broken, without its fields.

Fix: Link each one from SKILL.md and say when to read it.
- Note
Claude apps & API uploadPasses
Uploading to claude.ai or the Claude API, or packaging with Anthropic's script, accepts only the six spec fields and stops on anything else.
