Overview

This is a disclosed model-routing helper that installs local scripts and config, with no hidden data sending in the shipped code.

Install only if you want a task router that may direct complex work to cloud model providers. Treat provider-routed prompts as potentially leaving your machine, and avoid placing API keys or sensitive secrets in the plain config file unless you accept that storage model.

Missing User Warnings

Medium

• Confidence: 94% confidence
• Finding: The skill explicitly routes 'complex' tasks to external cloud providers such as MiniMax and OpenRouter, but the documentation does not warn users that their prompts, code, or other task data may be transmitted off-device. This creates a real privacy and data-governance risk, especially because users may assume the tool is 'local-first' and may submit sensitive content without informed consent.
