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.
