Skill Scaffold

Security checks across malware telemetry and agentic risk

Overview

This is a disclosed skill-scaffolding CLI that creates local template files and does not show hidden data access, credential use, exfiltration, or destructive behavior.

Reasonable to install if you want a local skill-template generator. Treat generated SKILL.md content as editable source: review descriptions, triggers, and author-supplied text before publishing or letting another agent rely on it.

Vague Triggers

Medium

Confidence: 91% confidence
Finding: The trigger phrases are broad enough to activate on generic requests like 'create a skill' or 'new skill template', which may cause an agent to invoke this skill outside the user's intended context. In an agent ecosystem, overbroad routing can lead to unintended tool use, confusion, or execution of scaffolding workflows when the user only asked for advice or a different platform-specific action.
