Security audit
Security checks for vulnerabilities and agentic risk
This skill has a coherent audit-and-fix purpose, but it asks agents to create code changes, run shell-enabled delegated sessions, and install an unspecified recurring cron monitor without enough scoping or cleanup.
Install only if you are comfortable with the agent modifying the repository, running build commands, creating commits, and potentially adding a recurring cron monitor. Before using it, prefer replacing the cron step with in-session monitoring, use secure per-run temporary files instead of /tmp/task.md, and limit delegated tools to the current tier's actual needs.

SKILL.md:82Predictable Shared Temporary File Controls a Shell-Enabled Delegated Agent
The skill explicitly instructs launching a subordinate CC session with Edit,Write,Read,Bash, which enables repository modification and shell command execution. While this appears operational rather than malicious, it lacks an explicit safety warning, confirmation gate, or scoping controls, so a user could invoke the skill without clearly understanding that it may execute commands and mutate the repo.
No suspicious patterns detected.
