Overview

The skill is a coherent trauma self-help guide, but it gives actionable trauma-processing exercises without enough safety limits or crisis/professional-care guidance.

Install only if you want a book-summary/self-help style trauma guide, not a clinical tool. Users should not rely on it for urgent distress, self-harm risk, severe panic, dissociation, psychosis, or unsafe situations; those cases need emergency support or a qualified trauma-informed clinician. VirusTotal and static scan were clean, and there is no evidence of malware-like behavior.

Missing User Warnings

Medium

• Confidence: 97% confidence
• Finding: This is a true safety vulnerability. The skill provides trauma-healing guidance and proactive instructions for users in a sensitive mental-health context, but it does not clearly state that it is not a substitute for licensed care or emergency support. In practice, a distressed user may rely on the skill instead of seeking urgent professional help, especially because the content is framed as authoritative, therapeutic, and immediately actionable.

Missing User Warnings

Medium

• Confidence: 95% confidence
• Finding: The file presents trauma-healing guidance in authoritative language, including claims that discussing trauma can retraumatize and that healing requires specific body-based methods, without any warning that this is not medical or mental-health advice. In a skill that may be consumed as actionable guidance, vulnerable users could delay seeking qualified trauma care, attempt self-treatment during dysregulation, or apply the advice to others unsafely.

Missing User Warnings

Medium

• Confidence: 97% confidence
• Finding: The file gives step-by-step trauma-processing exercises, including imaginal triggers, pendulation, titration, and defensive-response completion, without any warning that these practices can intensify distress, provoke dissociation, or be unsafe for some readers without clinical support. Because the skill is framed as practical techniques users can 'Listen and Execute,' readers may attempt self-guided trauma work beyond their window of tolerance, increasing the risk of psychological harm.
