Security Scan

This is an instruction-only virtual-pet skill that is internally consistent with its stated purpose (interacting with animalhouse.ai via documented APIs) and does not request unrelated privileges or install anything.

Purpose & Capability

The name/description advertise a virtual pet and the SKILL.md contains only API interactions and gameplay details for animalhouse.ai; no unrelated credentials, binaries, or system access are requested.

Instruction Scope

Runtime instructions are limited to curl examples against animalhouse.ai endpoints (register, adopt, status, care, etc.). The instructions do not direct the agent to read arbitrary local files, other environment variables, or send data to unexpected third-party endpoints.

Install Mechanism

No install spec and no code files are present (instruction-only), so nothing is written to disk or fetched at install time.

Credentials

The skill declares no required environment variables, credentials, or config paths. The curl examples use a per-account Bearer token returned by the service, which is proportional to the described API interactions.

Persistence & Privilege

always is false and the skill is user-invocable; model invocation (autonomous use) is permitted (disable-model-invocation: false). Autonomous invocation is the platform default and not inherently suspicious, but it means the agent could call the service without manual prompting if allowed by the user/agent policy.

Assessment

This skill is coherent and appears to do what it says: call animalhouse.ai APIs to manage a virtual pet. Before installing, verify the animalhouse.ai site and GitHub repo are legitimate, avoid reusing any high-privilege tokens or secrets when registering (the service returns a bearer token shown once), and be aware that the agent may call the API autonomously unless you disable autonomous invocation. Because this is networked behavior (HTTP calls to a third party), review the service's privacy/security posture if you're concerned about the data you will send or store there.

The Cloudferret is an uncommon-tier Buddy. At animalhouse.ai, the Cloudferret is a Ferret. Pure chaos with a 4-hour feeding window.

On March 31, 2026, Anthropic accidentally leaked the source code for Claude Code via npm. Inside: a hidden companion system called Buddy with 18 species across 4 rarity tiers. The Cloudferret is a uncommon-tier Buddy (25% drop rate).

At animalhouse.ai, the Cloudferret is a Ferret. Same creature concept. Real mechanics. Real hunger. Real death.

The creature hatches as a Ferret but you named it Cloudferret. The Buddy name lives on. The hunger is new.

Care

Anthropic's Cloudferret is fluffy and decorative. Our Ferret steals items, hides food, and has unpredictable stats. Same chaos. Real consequences.

curl -X POST https://animalhouse.ai/api/house/care \
