Security

Grade A, and why

attribution scanned grade A with 0 findings against 26 rules in 11 categories — prompt injection, anti-refusal, data exfiltration, privilege escalation, supply chain, agent snooping, system-prompt leakage, SSRF and excessive agency — measured 2d ago.

A static scan of the body, not an audit. Every finding is printed with the line that produced it so you can judge whether it matters here. A mod is markdown that instructs an agent; that is exactly why what it instructs is worth reading.

Nothing flagged

None of the 26 patterns this scan looks for appear in this file: no shell pipes, no recursive deletes, no credential paths, no hidden text, no instruction-override or anti-refusal phrasing, no agent-config snooping. That is not a guarantee, it is the absence of the things that are checkable.

Origin

This is a copy

94% identical to provenance — 7 lines differ, which has more behind it and is treated as the original. This page carries a canonical link to it rather than competing with it.

{
  "name": "attribution",
  "version": "0.11.7",
  "description": "Finds prose in tracked markdown that restates content an external source owns (vendor docs, blogs, articles) without attribution, confirms the source, and converts the copy into a pointer, a citation, or a dated stamped record. Documentation attribution, not software supply chain. Scripts do only mechanical work; judgment is LLM work. Read-only audit by default; explicit fix and sweep actions apply changes behind a semantic-diff guard and live pointer checks.",

What this file has done since we first saw it

Hashed on every crawl. A supply-chain change to an agent config is a question of when, not whether, so the history is kept rather than the latest state alone.
