find-skills

PassAudited by ClawScan on May 10, 2026.

Overview

This instruction-only skill is coherent for finding skills, but it can install global skills from external sources while skipping CLI prompts, so users should review installs first.

This skill appears benign for discovering skills. Use it for searching, but before installing anything, verify the skill source and consider running install commands yourself without `-y` so you can see confirmation prompts.

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.

What this means

If the user approves an install too quickly, a new skill may be added globally and affect future agent behavior without the CLI's normal confirmation step.

Why it was flagged

This is purpose-aligned for a skill installer, but global installation with skipped prompts can change the user's agent environment and should be reviewed before use.

Skill content
npx skills add <owner/repo@skill> -g -y

The `-g` flag installs globally (user-level) and `-y` skips confirmation prompts.
Recommendation

Before installing, review the skill name, source, description, and any requested capabilities; consider omitting `-y` so the CLI confirmation remains visible.

What this means

Installing a third-party skill can introduce new instructions or capabilities into the agent environment.

Why it was flagged

The workflow intentionally installs skills from external sources. That is central to the stated purpose, but source trust and provenance matter.

Skill content
`npx skills add <package>` - Install a skill from GitHub or other sources
Recommendation

Prefer well-known sources, inspect the skill page and files before installation, and avoid installing unknown skills globally unless needed.

What this means

The skill identity may be confusing or stale, making it harder to confirm exactly which package is being reviewed.

Why it was flagged

The embedded metadata differs from the registry metadata shown for this review, which lists a different owner ID, slug, and version. This is a provenance inconsistency, though no malicious behavior is shown.

Skill content
"ownerId": "kn77ajmmqw3cgnc3ay1x3e0ccd805hsw", "slug": "find-skills", "version": "0.1.0"
Recommendation

Verify the registry listing and publisher before relying on this skill, especially because it helps install other skills.
