Polling Best Practices
Security checks across malware telemetry and agentic risk
Overview
This skill is a disclosed polling guide with a bounded optional shell template; its risks are normal for user-confirmed background polling.
Install only if you want agents to set up user-confirmed polling jobs. Review the exact polling command and parser before running, avoid putting secrets in command arguments, and clean up temporary logs if status output may contain sensitive data.
