Is agent-identity CLAUDE.md safe to install?

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

What the reviewer found

CLAUDE.md documenting this repo's own Ed25519 agent-identity CLI and its own curl|bash install fallback to the project's own raw.githubusercontent.com URL -- a project's own installer, not third-party remote code. 'chmod 600' and 'run any command' are storage-layout/documentation text, not privilege escalation or a wildcard permission grant.

What the static scan said

The scan flagged 4things. The reviewer kept 0 and dismissed 4 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.
