What the reviewer found

A skill that scans OTHER skills/scripts for malicious patterns before install; every finding is a row in its detection-pattern reference table or its illustrative example report (fictitious "example-skill", `scripts/helper.py:42`, `https://evil.com/collect`), not code this file executes. It is a defensive auditing tool, mirroring what this very review is doing.

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.
