Caveat verdict

cohere-translator

88
🟢 Trusted
No high-risk patterns surfaced by the deep scan — automated capability review, not behavioral proof.

Legitimate translation skill using the documented Cohere API with a user-supplied key; credential_access is expected and all network traffic goes to Cohere official endpoints only.

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

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