🟠 Risky
Significant concerns — only install if you understand the risks

The skill involves file read, directory traversal, and write capabilities, which could potentially be used for malicious purposes, although its primary purpose seems to be for agent collaboration and task delegation.

⚠ Flagged for review — coarse, uncorroborated signal, not a confirmed exploit. Review the config yourself before installing.
