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 undeclared network calls: failed

    Contacts 7 hosts that are neither well-known infrastructure nor declared in the skill's frontmatter: api.fxtwitter.com, duckduckgo.com, pbs.twimg.com, t.co, twitter.com….

    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.
