Liuyao En

Liuyao (Six Lines) I Ching Coin Divination with virtual coin simulation. English adaptation of the Chinese Liuyao skill. For full Confucian/Taoist depth, use...

Security Scan

The skill's instructions reference a local generation script and many reference files that are not present in the package manifest and the metadata versions disagree, so the bundle is incomplete/incoherent and should be treated with caution.

Purpose & Capability

The skill claims to provide virtual coin simulation via scripts/liuyao.py and to read many reference documents (64gua.md, confucian.md, taoist.md, history_wisdom.md, cases.md, tutorial.md), but the provided manifest contains only SKILL.md and three reference files (five_elements.md, main.md, skill.md). The runtime needs described (a local script to generate hexagrams) are not satisfied by the files that are actually included.

Instruction Scope

SKILL.md explicitly instructs the agent to run a local script and to read multiple specific reference files. Because those files are missing from the package, the instructions are inconsistent and may lead the agent to behave unpredictably (e.g., improvise coin generation or attempt to fetch missing resources). There is no request for external endpoints or secrets in the instructions themselves.

Install Mechanism

No install spec or external downloads are present; this is an instruction-only skill. That lowers installation risk compared to packages that download and extract code.

Credentials

The skill requests no environment variables, no credentials, and no config paths. There is no apparent request for sensitive data or unrelated credentials.

Persistence & Privilege

always is false and the skill does not request broader system privileges or to modify other skills. Autonomous invocation is allowed (default) but not by itself a problem; nothing in the package asks for persistent system presence.

What to consider before installing

This package is incomplete or inconsistent: SKILL.md tells the agent to run scripts/liuyao.py and to load many reference files that are not included in the manifest, and the version numbers in files conflict. Before installing or enabling this skill: 1) Ask the publisher for the missing script (scripts/liuyao.py) and the referenced reference files, and verify their contents. 2) Confirm the source/homepage and that the owner is trustworthy; do not install code from an unknown personal archive. 3) Prefer to run the skill in a restricted/sandboxed environment (no access to secrets) until you can review the missing files. 4) If you cannot obtain the missing files, do not enable autonomous invocation — use the skill only manually or choose a different, complete skill. The package does not request credentials, so the direct secret-exfiltration risk is low, but incomplete instructions can cause unpredictable agent behavior, so proceed cautiously.

🌏 East-West Philosophy Bridge

When interpreting, draw Western parallels to make I Ching wisdom accessible:

Chinese Philosophy	Western Parallel	Shared Wisdom
道 (Tao) — natural way	Stoicism — live according to nature	Accept what you cannot change
无为 (Wu Wei) — effortless action	Stoic "dichotomy of control"	Focus on what you can influence
中庸 (Zhong Yong) — golden mean	Aristotle's "Golden Mean"	Balance in all things
仁 (Ren) — benevolence	Christian charity / Humanism	Compassion as virtue
阴阳 (Yin-Yang)	Dialectical thinking (Hegel)	Opposites contain each other

Liuyao vs Tarot (For Western Users)

Liuyao	Tarot
3 coins, 6 throws → Hexagram	Card draw → Spread
Primary + Changed hexagrams	Card positions in spread
Five Elements energy flow	Elemental correspondences
Moving lines = key changes	Reversed cards = blocked energy
Situation → Outcome transformation	Past → Present → Future narrative

🎲 Coin Symbols

Result	Symbol	Meaning

3 tails	× Old Yin (6)	Moving → Yang
2 heads + 1 tail	— Young Yang (7)	Stable
2 tails + 1 head	- - Young Yin (8)	Stable
