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.

npx skills@1.7.4 add ScrapeCreators/social-media-research-skills --skill scrapecreators-apiWhat it can touch
From the files and frontmatter at commit 64ba7b4. 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.
Pre-approves tools
Its allowed-tools field lists tools the agent may use without asking you first, in agents that honour it.

SKILL.md:13 (opens in a new tab)allowed-tools: Bash, Read, Write, WebFetch
We checked every text file in this skill, at commit 64ba7b4 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: homepage. 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; openclaw (a map) 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
There is no license field, so readers can't tell whether they may reuse the skill. O2
Fix: Add license: with an SPDX name such as MIT or Apache-2.0, or the name of a bundled licence file.
- Warning
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: homepage. 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
Upload and packaging fail on fields outside the spec: homepage. O1
Fix: Delete them, and keep your own data under metadata as text values.
- Note
The description is 660 characters. The claude.ai Help Center says 200 at most, though Anthropic's API docs and validator allow 1,024. D4
Fix: If the claude.ai upload refuses it, trim the description to 200 characters.
- Note
metadata values should be text; openclaw (a map) is not. The spec defines metadata as text to text. O4
Fix: Quote each value, for example version: "1.0".
- Error
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: homepage. 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; openclaw (a map) is not. OpenAI's upload follows the spec's text-to-text rule. O4
Fix: Quote each value, for example version: "1.0".
- Warning
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
VS Code ignores fields it doesn't support: homepage. O1
Fix: Delete them unless another agent you target reads them.
- Note
SKILL.md
