๐ŸŸข Trusted
No high-risk patterns surfaced by the deep scan โ€” automated capability review, not behavioral proof.

The skill appears to be a legitimate client for interacting with the A2A API Gateway, using standard capabilities like credential access and file operations for its intended purpose.

โš  Flagged for review โ€” coarse, uncorroborated signal, not a confirmed exploit. Review the config yourself before installing.

Automated static analysis โ€” not a human review. Caveat flags capabilities, not confirmed intent, and can produce false positives. Disagree with this verdict? Use Dispute below.

Findings (3)

Pattern match critical

Possible hardcoded credential

SKILL.md ยท code ยท API_KEY="your-key-here

Pattern match high

Pipe-to-python pattern โ€” remote code execution risk

a2a-discover.sh ยท prose ยท downgraded ยท curl -sS "${GATEWAY_URL}/v0/admin/bootstrap" 2>/dev/null | python

Pattern match high

Pipe to python โ€” executes piped content as Python code

Why the tier is capped

Execution sink present in raw bytes (Hard Floor: class C). Final tier capped at Caution โ€” cannot be lifted by any downgrade, example-payload opt-in, or allowlist.
