Live repository

Not pinned. Installing fetches whatever the repository holds at the time you run the command.

No human has reviewed this code. The checks below are a static scan of the files at one commit — nobody has run this skill or judged whether it works. A skill runs with whatever access you give your agent, so read the source before you install it.

Automated safety checks

scanned

This skill passed all 6 checks. We read its files at one commit and looked for the things that make a skill dangerous to run — not for whether it works.

  • Declares what it does: passed

    SKILL.md parses and declares a name and a description.

    SKILL.md exists, its frontmatter parses, and it declares a name and a description.

  • No undeclared network calls: passed

    Makes no network calls.

    Every host the skill dials — from its scripts, its config endpoints or the commands it tells the agent to run — is either well-known package and API infrastructure or declared in its own frontmatter. Links in documentation are not counted.

  • No obfuscated payloads: passed

    No encoded or obfuscated payloads.

    No base64, hex or compressed blob is decoded and then executed, and no encoded shell commands.

  • No credential access: passed

    Reads no keys, tokens, keychains or credential files.

    Neither the code nor the SKILL.md instructions read SSH keys, cloud credentials, keychains, token stores, browser cookie databases or dotfiles that hold secrets.

  • No pipe-to-shell installers: passed

    No pipe-to-shell or download-and-run installers.

    No `curl … | sh` pattern, in the code or in the instructions, that runs code fetched at run time.

  • Pinned to a commit: passed

    Scanned trailofbits/skills at 82fe822625.

    The exact upstream commit SHA that was scanned is recorded, so the result refers to specific bytes.

This is a static scan, not a review. It reads the skill's files; it does not run them, and it cannot tell you whether the skill is any good or whether the code does what its description says. A skill runs with whatever access you give your agent.

About this skill

What it does

The audit-context-building skill enables AI agents to systematically gather, analyze, and structure contextual information relevant to an audit. It helps in identifying key data points, relationships, and potential risks by organizing information into a coherent framework that supports thorough auditing processes.

When to use it

  • When preparing for a security or compliance audit and needing structured context about systems or policies.
  • During forensic investigations where understanding the full scope of events is critical.
  • When analyzing logs or data sources to identify anomalies or inconsistencies.
  • To build a comprehensive overview of an environment before making decisions based on audit findings.

Key capabilities

  • Gathering relevant contextual information from multiple sources.
  • Structuring and organizing audit-related data for clarity.
  • Identifying relationships between entities within the audit scope.
  • Highlighting potential risks or areas requiring further investigation.

Example prompts

  • "Build a context map of all user access points in the last quarter."
  • "Audit the recent system changes and identify any anomalies."
  • "Organize this log data into a structured format for review."

Tips & gotchas

  • Ensure that input data is accurate and complete to avoid misleading audit conclusions.
  • Use this skill in conjunction with other auditing tools or frameworks for more comprehensive results.
