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

Async research skill that runs a self-contained Python script to query Perplexity Search API concurrently using a declared API key; the auto-install of the perplexityai package is transparent and behavior matches the stated deep research purpose.

⚠ 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.
