Confirmed finding summary

No confirmed security findings

The completed audit recorded no confirmed security findings. This is not proof that the Skill has no side effects.

Installation context

Check the current Skill page

This page summarizes report evidence only. The Skill page provides the canonical install advisory.

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

The static findings are false positives from markdown examples, public RCSB PDB API URLs, safe file-download examples, and scientific terminology. I found no prompt injection, credential access, destructive behavior, data exfiltration, or hidden execution intent in the reviewed files.

Remediation

Suggested fixes recorded by this audit. Applying them is the maintainer’s responsibility.

FIX-001
Low
Documentation examples include local file writes for downloaded structures.

Clarify that users should choose safe output directories and validate PDB identifiers before saving files.
FIX-002
Low
Troubleshooting documentation shows subprocess usage for curl.

Prefer requests-based examples or note that subprocess arguments must remain fixed and never include unsanitized user input.

Expert evidence

Immutable subject identity, scanner metadata, dismissed matches, and source-level evidence.
