Is dotsync AGENTS.md safe to install?

Yes — dotsync AGENTS.md is safe to install, with something worth knowing. Sonnet 5 read every file dotsync AGENTS.md ships from adonyssantos/dotsync on 7 September 2026 and found nothing that acts against the person installing it; the static scan of its 26 rules grades it A.

What the reviewer found

dotsync's own AGENTS.md documents its own install.sh, sayable via `curl | bash` or a local clone -- this is the project's own installer, not a third-party fetch. The `rm -rf "$TMP"` line only cleans up a mktemp'd throwaway HOME used for the smoke test, never the real home directory.

What the static scan said

The scan flagged 3things. The reviewer kept 0 and dismissed 3 as false.

How this review was made

Sonnet 5 read the files above on 7 September 2026 and answered three questions: is it dangerous to whoever installs it, is each scanner finding real, and what should the installer know. The verdict is bound to the file's hash; when the file changes, it is scanned afresh and reviewed again. A script that changes while the definition does not is not re-reviewed — that is a known gap. How the scan and the review work.
