VS Code Node
Security checks across malware telemetry and agentic risk
Overview
This skill is a disclosed IDE-control helper with powerful workspace actions, but its capabilities fit its purpose and the artifact shows proportional controls.
Install only if you trust the linked VS Code/Cursor extension and Gateway setup. Keep the command allowlist narrow, leave write confirmation and read-only protections enabled unless needed, keep terminal execution disabled by default, and review diffs before allowing commits or destructive file operations.
