tellurium
Verdict safe, but 1 finding (1 low), mainly unauthorized tool use. Most recent scan 2026-10-21.
Second scanner: NVIDIA SkillSpector
Independent static run, no language model, over the same files as the Cisco scan above. How the two scanners compare across the whole corpus: Two scanners, one corpus.
What this skill does
Simulates biochemical kinetic models from SBML or Antimony with Tellurium and libRoadRunner, checks model units, compares deterministic parameter perturbations, and exports and replays SBML plus SED-ML COMBINE archives. Use for reaction-network time courses, kinetic parameters, concentration dynamics and reproducible simulation experiments; steady-state constraint-based metabolic flux analysis belongs to cobrapy.

Findings
LOW Script contacts a destination the documentation never mentions Unauthorized Tool Usestatic
Script contacts or configures 'identifiers.org' but the skill documentation never visibly mentions it. Undocumented network destinations can indicate behaviour the manifest and description do not disclose.

What we checked
- Static analyzer. Pattern rules over SKILL.md and bundled files: known-bad commands, exfiltration URLs, secrets, obfuscation.
- Bytecode analyzer.
- Pipeline analyzer.
- Correlation analyzer.
- Behavioral analyzer. Checks what the skill asks the agent to do against what its description claims it does.
- Trigger analyzer. Looks for instructions that fire on conditions the user did not ask for.
What we did not check
- Runtime behaviour. The skill was not executed; findings come from reading its files.
- Anything fetched at install or run time, including remote scripts, package dependencies, and URLs the skill tells the agent to open.
- Content the analyzers cannot read: images, binaries, and some non-English text.
- Known scanner bypass classes. See the methodology and limitations page.
