At a glance

A skill your agent uses when reviewing scripts, client components, bundles, or runtime behavior related to Avoid inline JavaScript.

  • Reviewing scripts
  • SKILL.md covers Quick Reference, Check, Fix and Explain, plus 1 more section
  • Instructions only: no scripts, shell commands, URLs or credentials in SKILL.md
  • Client components

What it does

Javascript Inline is an agent skill from thedaviddias/Front-End-Checklist. Use when reviewing scripts, client components, bundles, or runtime behavior related to Avoid inline JavaScript. Inspect both source code and the browser execution path so fixes target the real bottleneck or bug.

Its SKILL.md is about 460 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`).

It works with JavaScript. 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

  • Reviewing scripts
  • Client components
  • Runtime behavior related to Avoid inline JavaScript

Example prompts

  • “/javascript-inline”

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

Javascript Inline loads about 461 tokens when it runs, and up to ~7.8k if it reads all its reference files. Until then it costs about 57 tokens; SKILL.md has 173 words of instructions outside code blocks.

Always · name and description, kept in context so the agent knows when to use it
~57
When it runs · the whole SKILL.md, loaded when a task matches
~461
With references · SKILL.md plus every file in references/, read only if the agent opens them
~7.8k

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.

Avoid inline JavaScript

Inline JavaScript breaks browser caching, violates Content Security Policy (CSP), and creates unmaintainable spaghetti code mixing markup with behavior.

Quick Reference

  • Move onclick/onmouseover handlers to external JS files
  • Use addEventListener instead of inline event handlers
  • Exception: critical above-the-fold JS can be inlined
  • External files enable browser caching across pages

Check

Verify that JavaScript code is not mixed with HTML markup using external script files and proper separation of concerns for better maintainability and performance.

Fix

Move inline JavaScript to external files, implement proper event handling, and use modern JavaScript patterns for DOM interaction.

Explain

Explain why separating JavaScript from HTML improves maintainability, enables caching, reduces security risks, and follows best practices for separation of concerns.

Code Review

Review scripts, client components, and browser execution paths related to Avoid inline JavaScript. Flag exact imports, event handlers, runtime side effects, or blocking operations that violate the rule, and state how the change should be verified in the browser.
