Second scanner: NVIDIA SkillSpector
The two scanners disagree: Cisco found nothing and SkillSpector says do not install. One of them has a blind spot here; read the skill before trusting either. How the two scanners compare across the whole corpus: Two scanners, one corpus.
What this skill does
AWS serverless and event-driven architecture expert based on Well-Architected Framework. Use when building serverless APIs, Lambda functions, REST APIs, microservices, or async workflows. Covers Lambda with TypeScript/Python, API Gateway (REST/HTTP), DynamoDB, Step Functions, EventBridge, SQS, SNS, and serverless patterns. Essential when user mentions serverless, Lambda, API Gateway, event-driven, async processing, queues, pub/sub, or wants to build scalable serverless applications with AWS best practices.

What we checked
- Static analyzer. Pattern rules over SKILL.md and bundled files: known-bad commands, exfiltration URLs, secrets, obfuscation.
- Behavioral analyzer. Checks what the skill asks the agent to do against what its description claims it does.
- Llm analyzer. A language model reads the skill and reports intent-level issues the rules cannot express.
- Trigger analyzer. Looks for instructions that fire on conditions the user did not ask for.
- Meta analyzer. A second model pass that validates, deduplicates and re-scores the other analyzers' findings.
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.
