🟠 Risky
Significant concerns — only install if you understand the risks

The skill executes a script with sudo privileges, which may pose a risk if not properly validated, but it is for security hardening purposes.

⚠ Flagged for review — coarse, uncorroborated signal, not a confirmed exploit. Review the config yourself before installing.

Automated static analysis — not a human review. ClawAudit flags capabilities, not confirmed intent, and can produce false positives. Disagree with this verdict? Use Dispute below.
