TrustedSkills Verification
Unlike other registries that point to live repositories, TrustedSkills pins every skill to a verified commit hash. This protects you from malicious updates — what you install today is exactly what was reviewed and verified.
Installing this skill downloads the exact code at commit 7b5e64ef, not the current state of the repository. This prevents supply-chain attacks from unauthorized updates.
