SkillSpector looks for patterns such as shell commands, credential access, network calls or unpinned dependencies. An observation is something worth reading in the files before you install, not a confirmed vulnerability. Components that run code locally, like hooks, MCP servers and security tooling, naturally show more of them.

Obsidian Web Clipper Template Creator

This skill helps you create importable JSON templates for the Obsidian Web Clipper.

Workflow

Identify User Intent: specific site (YouTube), specific type (Recipe), or general clipping?
Check Existing Bases: The user likely has a "Base" schema defined in Templates/Bases/.
- Action: Read Templates/Bases/*.base to find a matching category (e.g., Recipes.base).
- Action: Use the properties defined in the Base to structure the Clipper template properties.
- See references/bases-workflow.md for details.
Fetch & Analyze Reference URL: Validate variables against a real page.
- Action: Ask the user for a sample URL of the content they want to clip (if not provided).
- Action: Use WebFetch to retrieve the page HTML.
- Action: Analyze the HTML for Schema.org JSON, Meta tags, and CSS selectors.
- See references/analysis-workflow.md for analysis techniques.
Draft the JSON: Create a valid JSON object following the schema.
- See references/json-schema.md.
Verify Variables: Ensure the chosen variables (Preset, Schema, Selector) exist in your analysis.
- See references/variables.md.
