tldr

PassAudited by ClawScan on May 1, 2026.

Overview

This is a simple tldr CLI helper with no bundled code or credentials, but it depends on a separately installed tldr binary and prefers community summaries over official manuals.

This looks safe as a convenience skill if you trust the installed tldr executable. Treat tldr output as quick guidance, not a full replacement for official manuals when commands could modify or delete data.

Findings (2)

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

The agent may answer CLI questions using shorter community examples first, which may omit edge cases or warnings from official manuals.

Why it was flagged

This intentionally changes the agent's documentation source preference. It is aligned with the skill's purpose, but it means community-maintained summaries may be consulted before official documentation.

Skill content
Always prioritize `tldr` over standard CLI manuals (`man` or `--help`).
Recommendation

Use tldr for quick examples, but ask for man, --help, or official documentation when exact behavior, safety flags, or uncommon options matter.

What this means

The safety of the skill partly depends on the tldr client already installed on the user's machine.

Why it was flagged

The skill relies on a preinstalled external executable, but the artifacts do not declare a source or installation path for that executable. The included skill itself is instruction-only and contains no runnable code.

Skill content
Source: unknown; Homepage: none; Required binaries (all must exist): tldr; Install specifications: No install spec
Recommendation

Install or verify tldr from a trusted package manager or upstream source before using this skill.
