What it does

Disclaimers is an agent skill from thedaviddias/Front-End-Checklist. Use when auditing YMYL content pages for trust signals, generating disclaimer copy for medical or financial content, or reviewing affiliate disclosure requirements under FTC or ASA guidelines.

Its SKILL.md is about 850 tokens, which your agent loads only when the skill is triggered. The skill folder holds 2 other files, including reference files (for example `references/rule.md`).

The repository describes itself as: 🗂 The essential checklist for modern web development, for humans and AI agents. The licence is MIT.

When your agent uses it

  • Auditing YMYL content pages for trust signals
  • Generating disclaimer copy for medical
  • Financial content
  • Reviewing affiliate disclosure requirements under FTC

Example prompts

  • “/disclaimers”

Workflow steps

7 steps, taken from the first numbered list in SKILL.md.

  1. Identify pages in YMYL categories (health, law, finance, safety) and affiliate pages.
  2. Add a disclaimer block near the top of the content, before readers engage with the sensitive material.
  3. For medical content: "This content is for informational purposes only and does not constitute medical advice. Consult a qualified…
  4. For financial content: "This article is for educational purposes only and is not financial advice. Past performance is not indicative of…
  5. For legal content: "This information is general in nature and not legal advice. Consult a licensed attorney for advice specific to your…
  6. For affiliate content: "This post contains affiliate links. We may earn a commission if you purchase through these links at no extra cost…
  7. Mark the disclaimer with an appropriate ARIA role or visually distinctive style so users can identify it.

What it can do on your machine

Read from SKILL.md and the folder at commit e8d14d0. It shows what the files ask for, not the result of running them.

  • Tool permissions

    Pre-approves nothing: there is no allowed-tools line, so your agent's usual permission prompts apply.

    From allowed-tools in the SKILL.md frontmatter.

  • Runs code

    No scripts in the folder and no shell commands in SKILL.md.

    From the folder's file list and the shell code blocks in SKILL.md.

  • Network

    Links to these hosts (documentation or services it may open):

    • frontendchecklist.io

    From URLs in SKILL.md, links to its own repository left out.

  • Credentials

    Names no API keys, tokens, secrets or passwords.

    From names ending in _API_KEY, _TOKEN, _SECRET, _KEY or _PASSWORD in SKILL.md.

Context cost

Disclaimers loads about 847 tokens when it runs, and up to ~2k if it reads all its reference files. Until then it costs about 51 tokens; SKILL.md has 415 words of instructions outside code blocks.

Always · name and description, kept in context so the agent knows when to use it
~51
When it runs · the whole SKILL.md, loaded when a task matches
~847
With references · SKILL.md plus every file in references/, read only if the agent opens them
~2k

Estimates: characters ÷ 4, the usual rule of thumb; real counts depend on the model's tokenizer. Scripts and assets cost tokens only if the agent reads them.

Safety

Auto-check passed

The automated check found no risky patterns in SKILL.md.

Automated static check — not a guarantee. Review scripts before installing. It scans the text of SKILL.md for risky patterns (piping downloads into a shell, reading credential files, hidden Unicode, destructive commands); files beside SKILL.md are not scanned.

Add disclaimers to sensitive content

Google's Search Quality Rater Guidelines classify health, finance, and legal topics as 'Your Money or Your Life' (YMYL) pages that are held to the highest trust standards. Pages lacking appropriate disclaimers score low on Trustworthiness within the E-E-A-T framework, suppressing their rankings.

Quick Reference

  • YMYL pages (medical, legal, financial, safety topics) require visible, accurate disclaimers to demonstrate trustworthiness
  • Google's quality raters assess E-E-A-T; missing disclaimers on sensitive topics signal low trust
  • Disclaimers must be accurate and specific — generic 'consult a professional' text with no context is insufficient

Check

Identify pages covering medical, legal, financial, safety, or affiliate content. For each, check: (1) Is there a visible disclaimer stating the content does not constitute professional advice? (2) For affiliate content, is there an FTC-compliant disclosure before the first affiliate link? (3) Is the disclaimer placed prominently — not hidden in footers or after lengthy content?

Fix

  1. Identify pages in YMYL categories (health, law, finance, safety) and affiliate pages.
  2. Add a disclaimer block near the top of the content, before readers engage with the sensitive material.
  3. For medical content: "This content is for informational purposes only and does not constitute medical advice. Consult a qualified healthcare professional before making health decisions."
  4. For financial content: "This article is for educational purposes only and is not financial advice. Past performance is not indicative of future results."
  5. For legal content: "This information is general in nature and not legal advice. Consult a licensed attorney for advice specific to your situation."
  6. For affiliate content: "This post contains affiliate links. We may earn a commission if you purchase through these links at no extra cost to you."
  7. Mark the disclaimer with an appropriate ARIA role or visually distinctive style so users can identify it.

Explain

Google evaluates YMYL pages under its E-E-A-T (Experience, Expertise, Authoritativeness, Trustworthiness) framework. Missing disclaimers on sensitive topics reduce the Trustworthiness score, which quality raters assign and which influences how Google ranks those pages. Disclaimers also reduce legal risk and meet regulatory requirements (FTC in the US, ASA in the UK for affiliates).

Code Review

Scan page content for YMYL topic keywords (medical symptoms, drug names, investment advice, legal rights, etc.). If found, check for a disclaimer element near the top of <main> or <article>. Verify affiliate pages include FTC-compliant disclosure text before the first <a> with a referral parameter or affiliate domain.
