Install
Each tab says whether it installs commit be1d2ee, the one we checked, or the latest version.
No tab for your agent? Use Any agent for OpenCode, Goose, Windsurf (Devin Desktop), Zed, Roo Code, Factory Droid, Junie, Amp and Antigravity, and Claude Code for Cline. Kiro needs the folder copied by hand.

Codex, Cursor, Copilot, VS Code, Gemini CLI, OpenCode, Goose, Amp and Zed all read .agents/skills; Claude Code and Kiro list only their own folders.

npx skills@1.7.4 add axoviq-ai/synthadoc --skill web_searchWhat it can touch
From the files and frontmatter at commit be1d2ee. This is how much a skill can do, not whether it is risky.
What it can touch: Shell, network or credentials
Runs shell commands
Its instructions or files give the agent commands to run on your computer.
Reaches the network
It sends or fetches data over the internet, for example with curl, an HTTP library or a package install.
Names web addresses
It mentions outside web addresses the agent may visit. We list them but don't follow them.
Bundles scripts
The folder holds code files the agent may run.
scripts/__init__.py
Pattern check
Pattern check: nothing flagged · commit be1d2ee · 27 Oct 2026
We checked every text file in this skill, at commit be1d2ee on 27 Oct 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.
How the check worksReport an incorrect finding
Outside links we did not follow
- https://tavily.com
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 specFails
The open format from agentskills.io, held to what the strictest agents enforce, so one folder loads everywhere.
- Error
The name "web_search" has underscores. Names may use only a–z, 0–9 and single hyphens. N3
Fix: Use name: web-search and rename the folder to match.
- Warning
The frontmatter uses [ ] or { } values. Most agents accept them, but the spec's validator (skills-ref) rejects the file. F4
Fix: Write lists as "- item" lines and maps as indented key: value lines, without anchors or tags.
- Warning
Fields outside the spec: version, entry, triggers, requires and author. Uploads to the Claude apps and API, and the spec's validator, reject the file; most agents ignore these fields. O1
Fix: Delete them for a portable skill, or keep them if you only target the agents that read them.
- Note
The description doesn't say when to use the skill. D6
Fix: Add a sentence such as "Use when …" naming the requests or files that should trigger it.
- Error
Claude CodePasses
Claude Code reads its own extra fields, ignores unknown ones, and still loads a skill whose frontmatter is broken, without its fields.
- Note
Claude Code ignores fields it doesn't know: version, entry, triggers, requires and author. O1
Fix: Check the spelling against Claude Code's field list, or delete them.
- Note
Claude apps & API uploadFails
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.
- Error
The name "web_search" has underscores. Anthropic's validator allows only lowercase letters, digits and hyphens. N3
Fix: Use name: web-search and rename the folder to match.
- Error
Upload and packaging fail on fields outside the spec: version, entry, triggers, requires and author. O1
Fix: Delete them, and keep your own data under metadata as text values.
- Error
OpenAI (Codex & API)Fails
Codex finds SKILL.md by its exact name and needs a description; OpenAI's Skills API checks the frontmatter against the spec and caps uploads.
- Error
The name "web_search" has underscores. OpenAI's upload follows the spec, which allows only a–z, 0–9 and hyphens. N3
Fix: Use name: web-search and rename the folder to match.
- Warning
Fields outside the spec: version, entry, triggers, requires and author. Codex ignores them; OpenAI doesn't say whether its upload accepts them. O1
Fix: Delete them, or move your own data under metadata as text values.
- Error
VS Code & CopilotPasses with warnings
VS Code reads skills one folder below .github/skills, .claude/skills or .agents/skills and falls back to the folder name when the name is missing or differs; GitHub's Copilot docs require the exact name SKILL.md.
- Warning
The name "web_search" has underscores. VS Code uses the folder name whenever the name differs from it. N3
Fix: Use name: web-search and rename the folder to match.
- Note
VS Code ignores fields it doesn't support: version, entry, triggers, requires and author. O1
Fix: Delete them unless another agent you target reads them.
- Warning
SKILL.md
We only show SKILL.md text here when its licence clearly allows it.
