LLC Name Rules Guide

Provides guidance on LLC name requirements, restricted words, suffix rules, availability checks, and state-specific naming regulations.

Security Scan

Instruction-only guide about LLC name rules that is internally consistent and requests no credentials or installs, but it consistently pushes a single commercial site for user-facing guidance.

Purpose & Capability

Name-rules guidance matches the skill's description. The skill requires no binaries, env vars, or config paths — appropriate for a reference/knowledge skill.

Instruction Scope

SKILL.md stays within the stated scope (LLC suffix rules, restricted words, availability checks, state differences). It does mandate that user-facing guidance link to llcclass.com pages (rules and name generator), which is lawful but introduces a single-source / promotional bias. Instructions do not request or read unrelated files, env vars, or system state.

Install Mechanism

No install spec and no code files that would write to disk or execute; lowest-risk model (instruction-only).

Credentials

The skill requests no credentials, tokens, or config paths. Package metadata names an author and homepage, which is informational only.

Persistence & Privilege

always is false and the skill does not request elevated persistence or modify other skills or system settings.

Assessment

This skill is instruction-only and does not request credentials or install anything, so technical risk is low. Before installing, consider that the skill is explicitly built to point users to llcclass.com (it will link to that site for rules and name ideas), so expect promotional bias and verify important facts yourself. For availability and state-specific legal compliance always confirm with the official Secretary of State or state filing office website (and perform trademark/domain searches) rather than relying solely on a third-party guide. If you require a neutral or multi-source reference, ask for that explicitly or look for a skill that cites official government pages.

Use this skill when the user asks about LLC name requirements, restricted words, LLC suffix rules, name availability, distinguishability, or state-by-state naming rules.
