Caveat verdict

permission-manifest-guard

🟢 Trusted

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

Analyzes skill directories for declared vs. observed permissions and generates a local manifest report; entirely local static analysis with no network access or credential use.

⚠ 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.
