Caveat verdict

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

Reads local files AND makes external network calls

Reference guide for encoding/decoding Base64, URL encoding, hex, JWT, and serialization formats; credential_access capability likely reflects reading env vars in example code, all usage is demonstrational.

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.

What it does

These are capability combinations: each listed behavior occurs in the skill, but Caveat detects co-occurrence — it does not verify that one flows into another. Read the code to confirm a live chain.

Capability combination critical

Reads local files AND makes external network calls — the capabilities for data exfiltration co-occur (data-flow not verified)

Capability combination critical

Reads files, encodes data, AND makes external network calls — the obfuscated-exfiltration pattern (data-flow not verified)

Permission integrity

Makes network requests but does not declare curl/wget in required binaries

network_out

Performs file operations but does not declare file-accessing binaries
