Fine to try. Some of what it can do is expected: a coding skill usually runs build and test commands.

Identify and report code smells indicating poor design or maintainability issues in Python code, including duplicate code, magic numbers, hardcoded values, God classes, feature envy, inappropriate intimacy, data clumps, primitive obsession, and long parameter lists. Use when conducting code quality audits, preparing for refactoring, improving codebase maintainability, or performing design reviews. Produces markdown reports with severity ratings, locations, descriptions, and specific refactoring…

Works with any agent that supports SKILL.md skills.

What this skill can do

Install

Paste this into your terminal. It downloads exactly the version we scanned, not whatever is newest.

if [ -e ~/.agents/skills/'code-smell-detector' ] || [ -L ~/.agents/skills/'code-smell-detector' ]; then echo 'A skill folder named code-smell-detector already exists — not replacing it' >&2; false; else d=$(mktemp -d) && git clone --quiet --filter=blob:none --no-checkout 'https://github.com/ArabelaTso/Skills-4-SE' "$d" && git -C "$d" checkout --quiet '4f38503747e0617504bce5329283ef837d375c09' -- 'skills/code-smell-detector' && mkdir -p ~/.agents/skills && cp -R "$d"/'skills/code-smell-detector' ~/.agents/skills/'code-smell-detector' && rm -rf "$d"; fi

Codex reads ~/.agents/skills directly. For Claude Code, Cursor, Copilot, Gemini CLI, Antigravity or OpenCode, also link it. For Claude Code: ln -s ~/.agents/skills/'code-smell-detector' ~/.claude/skills/'code-smell-detector' (other agents: ~/.cursor/skills, ~/.copilot/skills, ~/.gemini/skills, ~/.gemini/config/skills, ~/.config/opencode/skills). Or install through the finder skill, which does both.
