Caveat verdict

new-smyx-new-smyx-risk-analysis
The skill reads an api-key from local YAML config files across the workspace and sends video/image data with identity credentials to an external server-side API without transparently disclosing what is transmitted.
⚠ 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.
