This report does not block or authorize the manifest or ZIP.

Static analysis flagged 34 patterns across external_commands (23), network (6), and filesystem (3) categories. All findings evaluated as FALSE POSITIVES: external_commands are documented CLI usage with allowed-tools declaration, network URLs are documentation examples (docs.example.com), and filesystem references are markdown relative links to other skill files. No malicious intent detected. Minor risk from legitimate Bash command execution and network access for web scraping.

SKILL.md:26-48

Network Access for Web Scraping

Skill performs network requests to user-specified URLs for web scraping. This is expected behavior for a download tool but requires user trust in target URLs.

Network access is core functionality for web scraping - legitimate use case but requires user awareness of target URL trustworthiness.

Low

SKILL.md:14

Filesystem Write Access

Skill writes scraped content to local .firecrawl/ directory. Creates nested directory structure for downloaded pages.

Filesystem writes are expected for download functionality - content saved to dedicated .firecrawl directory with predictable structure.

Risk findings

Confirmed security concerns are separated from items that still need review.

Confirmed security concerns (1)

RISK-001 Low

SKILL.md:5-7

External Command Execution via CLI

Skill executes firecrawl CLI commands via Bash. Commands are documented examples with user-provided URLs. Risk is mitigated by allowed-tools declaration restricting to firecrawl and npx firecrawl commands only.

Allowed-tools declaration explicitly limits Bash to firecrawl commands - legitimate CLI tooling pattern with bounded execution scope.
