Subagent Driven Development

Security checks across malware telemetry and agentic risk

Overview

This skill is a disclosed coding-workflow helper that coordinates subagents and reviews, with no supported evidence of hidden persistence, exfiltration, or deceptive behavior.

Install this if you want an agent to coordinate implementation tasks, reviews, tests, and commits in a repository. Use it only on branches and codebases where you are comfortable allowing subagents to make code changes and commits, and keep the review gates enabled.

Vague Triggers

Confidence
88% confidence
Finding
The manifest description says the skill should be used 'when executing implementation plans with independent tasks in the current session,' which gives positive conditions but no negative examples beyond the later body text. In a markdown/manifest context, this can leave some ambiguity about edge cases such as partially dependent tasks or mixed planning/execution situations.
