What the reviewer found

A skill-authoring guide teaching authors how to build skills correctly, including a cautionary example about a real leaked LASTFM_KEY. The 'harvest' text is that warning, not code that reads the environment, and the rm -rf only clears a temp clone under /tmp/REPO.

What was read

The file as it ships in jcrabapple/hermes-skills:

What the static scan said

The scan flagged 2things. The reviewer kept 0 and dismissed 2 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.
