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 failed 1 of 6 checks. A failure is not proof of bad intent; it means something in the code needs a human to look at it before you run it.

  • No credential access: failed

    Touches credential material in 1 place.

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

    What it found

    • tauri/tauri-permissions/SKILL.md:210SSH private keys or config
      "deny": [{ "path": "$HOME/.ssh/**" }]

  • 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 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 dchuk/claude-code-tauri-skills at 855352dfbc.

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

About this skill

What it does

This skill enables AI agents to manage Tauri application security by defining and modifying the tauri.conf.json file. It specifically handles the configuration of allowed permissions for webviews, ensuring that the desktop application only requests necessary access from the operating system during runtime.

When to use it

  • Hardening Security: Restricting a newly built Tauri app to prevent accidental data leaks by defaulting to a secure permission set.
  • Customizing OS Access: Granting specific capabilities like file system read/write or microphone access required for the app's core functionality.
  • Debugging Permission Errors: Adjusting configuration when an AI agent encounters runtime errors related to denied browser-to-desktop communication.
  • Platform-Specific Rules: Applying different permission sets for macOS, Windows, and Linux builds within a single project.

Key capabilities

  • Parses and edits the tauri.conf.json manifest file.
  • Configures the allowlist section to define webview permissions.
  • Sets boolean flags for features like fs-all, shell-all, and http.
  • Manages platform-specific overrides in the build configuration.

Example prompts

  • "Configure my Tauri app to allow full file system access on macOS but restrict it on Linux."
  • "Update the webview permissions to enable microphone access for a voice chat feature."
  • "Disable all shell commands in the Tauri configuration to prevent command injection vulnerabilities."

Tips & gotchas

Ensure your tauri.conf.json structure matches the latest Tauri version, as permission schemas change frequently. Always test the application after modifying these settings, as incorrect configurations can cause the app to fail to launch or request excessive permissions unexpectedly.
