Caveat verdict

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

Writes files AND executes processes

P2P Obsidian sync skill using Syncthing for Mac-to-iPhone vault synchronization; all file and process operations are local/P2P and the skill explicitly avoids third-party servers.

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

Writes files AND executes processes — may drop and execute malicious scripts

LLM05 · LLM06 · ASI05

Capability combination high

Installs packages AND executes processes — opaque dependency chain with execution

LLM03 · ASI04

Permission integrity

Installs packages at runtime — transitive dependencies are not auditable

package_install

Findings (2)

Pattern match high

HTTP request to bare IP address — common in malicious payloads

README.en.md · code · http://127.0.0.1

Pattern match high

subprocess execution — runs system commands from Python

SKILL.md · code · subprocess.run(

Why the tier is capped

Execution sink present in raw bytes (Hard Floor: class D). Final tier capped at Caution — cannot be lifted by any downgrade, example-payload opt-in, or allowlist.

Permissions & capabilities

No declared permissions — minimal attack surface.
