๐Ÿ”ด Dangerous
High-risk patterns flagged for review โ€” automated deep scan, not behaviorally verified.

The skill executes curl piped to bash from an external host to install arbitrary code, and instructs the agent to immediately execute any user-pasted bindcode message without inspection, creating a concrete prompt injection vector for arbitrary command execution on the agent host.

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.
