Automated safety checks
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

About this skill
What it does
This skill utilizes LLVM to obfuscate code. It transforms executable binaries into a less readable and understandable form, making reverse engineering more difficult. The process involves techniques like instruction substitution, control flow flattening, and opaque predicate insertion while attempting to preserve functionality.
When to use it
- Protecting proprietary algorithms or intellectual property embedded in executables.
- Making malware analysis more challenging for security researchers.
- Adding an extra layer of defense against unauthorized modification of software.
- Obscuring sensitive data processing logic within a binary.
Key capabilities
- Code transformation using LLVM passes
- Instruction substitution
- Control flow flattening
- Opaque predicate insertion
- Binary obfuscation
Example prompts
- "Obfuscate this executable: /path/to/my/program"
- "Apply a strong level of obfuscation to the binary."
- "Can you make reverse engineering harder for this program?"
Tips & gotchas
The effectiveness of obfuscation is not foolproof; determined attackers can still potentially deobfuscate code. Ensure that the target executable is compatible with LLVM and its supported architectures for successful processing.
