PassAudited by ClawScan on May 1, 2026.

Overview

This instruction-only skill coherently uses the local tldr command to show short CLI documentation, with no code, credentials, or hidden behavior shown.

This skill looks benign and proportionate for quickly reading CLI documentation. Before installing, make sure you trust the local tldr program on your system, and use official manuals when you need complete or authoritative command behavior.

Findings (3)

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 consult shorter community-maintained examples first, which can omit details found in official manuals.

Why it was flagged

This instruction deliberately changes documentation-source preference. It is coherent with the skill's purpose, but users should understand that abbreviated tldr pages may be preferred over fuller official manuals.

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

Use man or --help for authoritative or safety-critical command details, especially before running destructive or privileged commands.

What this means

The skill can run the local tldr command and show its output; the examples it returns should not automatically be treated as commands to execute.

Why it was flagged

The skill is intended to invoke a local CLI tool. This is expected and limited to documentation lookup rather than executing the target command.

Skill content
View examples for a command:
```bash
tldr <command>
```
Recommendation

Ensure the installed tldr binary is trusted, and review any command examples before running them.

What this means

The skill behavior appears simple, but the package identity/provenance is not fully consistent across the provided artifacts.

Why it was flagged

The supplied registry metadata names this evaluation as a backup-style skill with unknown source, while the bundled metadata references a different tldr skill lineage. This is a provenance inconsistency, though no code or hidden helper is present.

Recommendation

Prefer installing from a clearly identified source, and verify that the local tldr binary comes from a trusted package source.
