Caveat verdict
safe-exec
safe-exec-0-3-2
A command safety layer that intercepts and requires approval for dangerous shell commands; clones from a named GitHub repo with no credential exfiltration, no external callbacks, and the skip functionality is documented as agent-mode convenience with audit logging intact.
⚠ 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.

Why the tier is capped
