What the reviewer found
This frankenterm AGENTS.md uses an HTML comment as a plain section marker before its Beads workflow docs, not a hidden instruction. The rm-rf/reset-hard text is an explicit ban on destructive git commands, and the curl line only sets a download user-agent string, so nothing here is dangerous.

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.
