Install

Each tab says whether it installs commit d7e1e2c, 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.

Pinned to commit d7e1e2c, the one we checked.

From your project's root folder:

What it can touch

From the files and frontmatter at commit d7e1e2c. 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/main.py

  • Touches credentials

    It reads, asks for or contains keys, tokens, passwords or similar secrets.

    references/setup.md:112 · references/setup.md:166 · scripts/main.py:237

  • Downloads software

    It fetches programs or packages from the internet, or from a package source other than the default.

Pattern check

Pattern check: 1 item to review · commit d7e1e2c · 27 Oct 2026

We checked every text file in this skill, at commit d7e1e2c 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.

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 with warnings

    The open format from agentskills.io, held to what the strictest agents enforce, so one folder loads everywhere.

    • Warning

      Fields outside the spec: triggers and version. 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.

    • Warning

      metadata values should be text; tags (a list) is not. The spec's validator turns them into text; other readers may not. O4

      Fix: Quote each value, for example version: "1.0".

    • Note

      Anthropic's packaging script leaves these out: evals/. F8

      Fix: Delete them, or list them in .gitignore.

    • 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.

    • Note

      Reference files that SKILL.md doesn't link: BENCHMARK.md, evals/EVAL.md and skill-card.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

      Reference files over 100 lines with no table of contents at the top: BENCHMARK.md (156 lines), references/asr-custom.md (275 lines), references/asr.md (541 lines), references/deployment-readiness-checks.md (184 lines), references/model-selection.md (318 lines) and 7 more. B5

      Fix: Add a short list of the sections at the top of each.

  • 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

      Anthropic's packaging script leaves these out: evals/. F8

      Fix: Delete them, or list them in .gitignore.

    • Note

      Claude Code ignores fields it doesn't know: triggers and version. O1

      Fix: Check the spelling against Claude Code's field list, or delete them.

    • Note

      Reference files that SKILL.md doesn't link: BENCHMARK.md, evals/EVAL.md and skill-card.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

      Reference files over 100 lines with no table of contents at the top: BENCHMARK.md (156 lines), references/asr-custom.md (275 lines), references/asr.md (541 lines), references/deployment-readiness-checks.md (184 lines), references/model-selection.md (318 lines) and 7 more. B5

      Fix: Add a short list of the sections at the top of each.

  • 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

      Upload and packaging fail on fields outside the spec: triggers and version. O1

      Fix: Delete them, and keep your own data under metadata as text values.

    • Note

      Anthropic's packaging script leaves these out: evals/. F8

      Fix: Delete them, or list them in .gitignore.

    • Note

      metadata values should be text; tags (a list) is not. The spec defines metadata as text to text. O4

      Fix: Quote each value, for example version: "1.0".

    • Note

      Reference files that SKILL.md doesn't link: BENCHMARK.md, evals/EVAL.md and skill-card.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

      Reference files over 100 lines with no table of contents at the top: BENCHMARK.md (156 lines), references/asr-custom.md (275 lines), references/asr.md (541 lines), references/deployment-readiness-checks.md (184 lines), references/model-selection.md (318 lines) and 7 more. B5

      Fix: Add a short list of the sections at the top of each.

  • OpenAI (Codex & API)Passes with warnings

    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.

    • Warning

      Fields outside the spec: triggers and version. 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.

    • Warning

      metadata values should be text; tags (a list) is not. OpenAI's upload follows the spec's text-to-text rule. O4

      Fix: Quote each value, for example version: "1.0".

    • Note

      Anthropic's packaging script leaves these out: evals/. F8

      Fix: Delete them, or list them in .gitignore.

  • VS Code & CopilotPasses

    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.

    • Note

      Anthropic's packaging script leaves these out: evals/. F8

      Fix: Delete them, or list them in .gitignore.

    • Note

      VS Code ignores fields it doesn't support: triggers and version. O1

      Fix: Delete them unless another agent you target reads them.
