Bearing
PassAudited by ClawScan on May 1, 2026.
Overview
The skill appears to be a local entry-storage shell tool with no network or credential use, but it does not show actual bearing-life calculation logic.
This looks safe to use as a simple local entry tracker, but verify any bearing calculations independently because the provided artifacts do not implement them. Avoid putting secrets in entries, and review remove/export commands before allowing an agent to run them.
Findings (3)
Artifact-based informational review of SKILL.md, metadata, install specs, static scan signals, and capability signals. ClawScan does not execute the skill or run runtime probes.
A user or agent may expect engineering calculation support that the artifacts do not demonstrate.
The advertised calculator purpose is broader than the actual documented command set, which appears to manage stored entries rather than perform bearing selection or life calculations.

Treat this as a local record-keeping tool unless the publisher provides clear calculation logic, formulas, or examples.
Accidental remove or export commands could change or copy the local entries stored by the skill.
The script can delete entries from its local data file and export that data when invoked. These actions are user-directed and scoped to the skill's own storage.
sed -i "${num}d" "$DATA_DIR/data.jsonl" ... cp "$DATA_DIR/data.jsonl" "$out"Confirm remove and export actions before running them, and check the configured data directory if BEARING_DIR is changed.
Anything added to the tool remains in local storage until removed and could be included in later list, search, or export output.
User-provided entries are persisted on disk and may be listed, searched, or exported later.
All data stored in `~/.bearing/` using JSONL format (one JSON object per line).
Do not store secrets or sensitive business data in this skill unless local persistence in ~/.bearing is acceptable.
