Factory

WarnAudited by ClawScan on May 10, 2026.

Overview

This installer is not clearly malicious, but it would make broad, persistent changes by installing many unreviewed agent components and an optional search server with access to past sessions and code.

Install only if you trust the fortunto2/solo-factory and solograph projects. Prefer reviewing the remote repository first, pinning versions or commits, installing into one agent at a time, skipping MCP unless you need it, and checking any hooks or auto-start settings after installation.

Findings (5)

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

A single setup command could alter several AI agent environments at once, not just the one the user intended.

Why it was flagged

The primary workflow tells the agent to perform a bulk installation across every detected agent environment, which can change multiple tools' behavior without per-agent scoping or rollback guidance.

Skill content
npx skills add fortunto2/solo-factory --all ... installs all skills from GitHub to all detected agents
Recommendation

Install only into the specific agent you intend to use, review what will be added first, and provide rollback or uninstall steps before running bulk installs.

What this means

The behavior users receive depends on remote content that was not part of this scan and could change after review.

Why it was flagged

The reviewed artifact is only an installer instruction, while the actual skills are pulled remotely from GitHub without a pinned commit, package version, manifest, or reviewed code included here.

Skill content
Method A (recommended): `npx skills` — works with any AI agent, installs from GitHub directly.
Recommendation

Review the GitHub repository and installed skill contents, prefer pinned versions or commits, and avoid installing changing remote bundles blindly.

What this means

The setup may keep extra agent components running or firing later, after the initial installation task is complete.

Why it was flagged

Hooks, additional agents, and MCP auto-start create persistent or automatically triggered behavior, but the artifact does not describe what the hooks do or how to disable them.

Skill content
This installs all 23 skills + 3 agents + hooks + MCP auto-start in one command.
Recommendation

Use the plugin path only if you trust the full bundle; inspect hooks and auto-start configuration, and document how to disable or remove them.

What this means

Private notes, code, or past session content could be indexed and surfaced in later tasks in ways the user did not expect.

Why it was flagged

The optional MCP server can access and reuse knowledge base content, past coding sessions, and indexed project code, but the artifact does not define what data is included, excluded, retained, or shared back into future agent context.

Skill content
`kb_search` — semantic search over knowledge base; `session_search` — search past Claude Code sessions; `project_code_reindex` — project registry
Recommendation

Configure explicit data scopes and exclusions before enabling MCP, and avoid indexing sensitive projects or past sessions unless needed.

What this means

Running this command executes code downloaded from the internet on the user's machine.

Why it was flagged

This is a user-directed setup hint for installing uv, but it still executes a remote shell script and should be treated as a sensitive installation step.

Skill content
Fix: `curl -LsSf https://astral.sh/uv/install.sh | sh`
Recommendation

Prefer the official installer documentation, verify the source, and avoid piping remote scripts directly into a shell when possible.
