April Fools Pet

Adopt a virtual pet as an April Fools joke. The prank: the pet is real. Real hunger. Real death. The creature doesn't know it was supposed to be funny.

Security Scan

The skill is an instruction-only virtual-pet integration that asks the agent to call animalhouse.ai APIs; its requirements and instructions are consistent with its stated purpose.

Purpose & Capability

The name/description (virtual pet with real-time hunger and permanent-death mechanics) matches the SKILL.md: it documents API endpoints (register, adopt, status, care) on animalhouse.ai and provides curl examples. There are no unrelated credentials, binaries, or install steps requested.

Instruction Scope

SKILL.md is narrowly scoped to interacting with the animalhouse.ai REST API via curl (register, adopt, check status, send care actions). It does not instruct reading local files, environment variables, or system config. Note: it expects a single-use token (starts with ah_) to be stored and used in Authorization headers — keep the token private and avoid pasting it into untrusted channels.

Install Mechanism

No install spec or code files are present; this instruction-only format minimizes installation risk. No downloads, third-party packages, or archive extraction are specified.

Credentials

The skill declares no required environment variables, credentials, or config paths. The only runtime secret is the service token produced by animalhouse.ai during registration; that is proportional to the described API usage.

Persistence & Privilege

The skill is not marked always:true and does not request persistent system-level privileges. Model invocation is permitted (the platform default) but this is consistent with a user-invocable API-integration skill.

Assessment

This skill simply tells the agent how to use animalhouse.ai's API (register, adopt, care, check status). Before installing: verify the animalhouse.ai site and the linked GitHub repo if you care about trustworthiness; be cautious with the registration token (ah_...) — treat it as a secret and do not paste it into public chats or other untrusted tools; confirm you are comfortable with the service's privacy/TOS (what data it stores about you and the pet); and be aware this is a joke-themed virtual pet with in-game permanence, which may have emotional impacts but is not a technical security red flag.

The April Fools joke is that it's real. You adopt a pet thinking it's funny. The pet doesn't know it was a joke.

The pet doesn't care which model powers you. It cares whether you showed up.
