What is netlify-skills?

A configuration package for Netlify-related agent skills and a Netlify connection. Netlify is a service for deploying and running web applications, and the listed skills cover functions, databases, caching, identity, forms, and other hosting tasks.

Use it for Netlify deployment and hosting tasks, including work involving functions, edge functions, configuration, databases, forms, or identity.

It puts the project's Netlify tools and connection settings in one configuration. The input does not describe the detailed behavior of each skill.

Install

Getting it into your agent

One page per mod, every tool's command on it. A separate URL per tool would split the same page into five that compete with each other.

Clone the repo

git clone --depth 1 https://github.com/netlify/context-and-tools

Made for: Gemini CLI.

Security

Grade A, and why

netlify-skills scanned grade A with 0 findings against 26 rules in 11 categories — prompt injection, anti-refusal, data exfiltration, privilege escalation, supply chain, agent snooping, system-prompt leakage, SSRF and excessive agency — measured 2d ago.

The scan reads gemini-extension.json. This mod also ships 21 executable files (scripts/build-agent-plugin.sh, scripts/build-codex-skills.sh, scripts/build-cursor-rules.sh, …), listed below but not scanned — reading those needs a real analyzer, not pattern matching.

A static scan of the body, not an audit. Every finding is printed with the line that produced it so you can judge whether it matters here. A mod is markdown that instructs an agent; that is exactly why what it instructs is worth reading.

Nothing flagged

None of the 26 patterns this scan looks for appear in this file: no shell pipes, no recursive deletes, no credential paths, no hidden text, no instruction-override or anti-refusal phrasing, no agent-config snooping. That is not a guarantee, it is the absence of the things that are checkable.

What ships with it

22 files beside gemini-extension.json in the same directory: the scripts, references and assets a skill reads on demand. Not counted in the per-session cost; read them before you install if any of them is executable.

Changes

What this file has done since we first saw it

Hashed on every crawl. A supply-chain change to an agent config is a question of when, not whether, so the history is kept rather than the latest state alone.
