Caveat verdict

otp-challenger

88
🟢 Trusted
No high-risk patterns surfaced by the deep scan — automated capability review, not behavioral proof.

Accesses credentials AND encodes data

Two-factor authentication challenge skill for TOTP/YubiKey verification; OTP_FAILURE_HOOK privilege is explicitly documented in metadata (not hidden) and the skill adds security gates.

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.
