Security audit

Clarity Annotate

Security checks across malware telemetry and agentic risk

Overview

This skill appears to do what it claims: list and submit protein variant annotations to Clarity Protocol using user-provided API keys.

Install this only if you intend to let the agent interact with Clarity Protocol. Keep API keys scoped where possible, provide the write key only in trusted sessions, and review annotation content before allowing submissions.
