Caveat verdict

45
🟠 Risky
Significant risk patterns flagged — automated deep scan, not behavioral proof.

Receives external input AND executes processes

The skill requires a cryptocurrency wallet private key (HYPERLIQUID_PRIVATE_KEY) to execute real financial transactions on Hyperliquid; handling private keys with automated live trading represents elevated financial risk.

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.
