Review flags: filesystem/home-directory access, network access or external URLs, package installation commands, shell command snippets. These are review signals, not definitive security judgments; inspect before installing.
Required permissions
- • Environment variables / secrets
- • Shell commands
- • Network/API usage
- • Filesystem/home access
Permissions are inferred from SKILL.md text only. They are review prompts, not guarantees about runtime behavior.
Risk flags explained
Mentions filesystem writes, deletes, home-directory paths, or config/key locations.
Mentions external URLs, network APIs, downloads, or HTTP client usage.
Mentions package installation or dependency-fetching commands.
Contains shell command snippets. Review commands before copy/paste or agent execution.
