terminal-skills

A task router that finds instructions for specialized work such as deployment platforms, document pipelines, and third-party APIs.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it to plan and carry out specialized technical tasks. Searching and browsing work without an API key; task planning may require one.
Why use it?
It helps an agent handle tasks outside its usual knowledge by using reviewed instructions instead of starting from scratch.

Grade A, and why

terminal-skills 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.

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.
