These are SkillSpector’s own severities. On a checked sample its high-severity flags on skills were ~96% false positives — a documented command, a public API, a “never do X” rule — so we show them as a caution to read, not a verdict. Why →

  • high Rogue Agent · line 21
    Skill modifies its own code, configuration, or behavior at runtime. Self-modification enables an agent to escalate privileges, disable safety constraints, or install persistent backdoors.
    Fix: Prevent the skill from modifying its own code, SKILL.md, or configuration files. Treat skill files as read-only at runtime.
  • high YARA Match · line 50
    YARA rule matched a known malware signature (reverse shell, backdoor, ransomware, C2 framework, or info stealer).
    Fix: Remove the malware payload or compromised file entirely. Investigate how it entered the skill and audit all other artifacts for additional indicators of compromise.

    Skill establishes unauthorized persistence across sessions via cron jobs, startup scripts, or state files. Session persistence allows an attacker to maintain access beyond the current interaction.
    Fix: Remove any persistence mechanisms (cron jobs, startup scripts, state files). Skills should not maintain state across sessions without explicit user consent.

Token cost

What it costs to keep this loaded

Counted locally with the o200k_base tokenizer, which is exact for GPT models; Claude uses its own tokenizer and its counts differ. Treat this as one consistent yardstick across the catalogue rather than a bill. Prices are per million input tokens.

Security

Grade A, and why

craft-cloud 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 6d 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.

Craft Cloud — Serverless Hosting for Craft CMS

Reference for Craft Cloud, Pixel & Tonic's serverless hosting platform for Craft CMS. Covers the craft-cloud.yaml config file, the Build → Migrate → Release deploy pipeline, the craftcms/cloud extension, edge image transforms and static caching, the Cloud filesystem, plugin Cloud-compatibility requirements, and self-hosted → Cloud migration.

This skill is scoped to Craft Cloud specifically — what's different on Cloud vs running Craft yourself on Forge, Servd, or bare metal. For Servd, see the servd skill. For generic Craft deployment (build artifacts, project config sync, atomic deploys on traditional hosts), see the craftcms skill's deployment.md.

Companion Skills — Load When Needed

  • craftcms — When the Cloud topic intersects plugin or module PHP work (e.g. App::isEphemeral() guards in services, asset-bundle constraints, queue job design for the 15-minute cap).
  • craft-site — When Cloud intersects front-end templating (ESI islands inside cached pages, edge image transform usage, {% expires %} opt-outs for static caching).
  • ddev — For the local-dev parity recipe (matching PHP/DB versions, simulating the ephemeral filesystem locally).
  • craft-php-guidelines — When editing plugin PHP to add Cloud-compatibility checks.

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.
