Caveat verdict
clearweb
Accesses credentials AND makes external network calls
The skill instructs the agent to install the Bright Data CLI by piping a remote install script directly to bash (curl -fsSL https://cli.brightdata.com/install.sh | bash), which is concrete remote code execution from a third-party host.
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.
What it does
These are capability combinations: each listed behavior occurs in the skill, but Caveat detects co-occurrence โ it does not verify that one flows into another. Read the code to confirm a live chain.

Why the tier is capped
Execution sink present in raw bytes (Hard Floor: class A). Final tier capped at Caution โ cannot be lifted by any downgrade, example-payload opt-in, or allowlist.
Permissions & capabilities
No declared permissions โ minimal attack surface.
