Installation context

Historical evidence

This report may not describe the currently installable artifact. Open the current Skill page for install guidance.

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

The static analyzer reported many high and medium patterns, but review found the external command and blocker hits are Markdown or code-example false positives. The confirmed concerns are external reference links, a hosted platform suggestion, and expected local file I/O; no prompt injection, command execution, credential access, or malicious network behavior was found.

Risk findings

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

Confirmed security concerns (1)

RISK-001 Low
External Links and Hosted Platform Suggestion
The skill links to external documentation and recommends K-Dense Web for complex workflows. This may route users toward an external service, but no automatic network action exists.
The URLs and platform recommendation are explicit in SKILL.md. Risk is limited because they are documentation text and optional guidance, not executable network code.

Expert evidence

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

Static External Command Findings Are Markdown False Positives
The Ruby and shell backtick alerts point to Markdown fences and inline code examples. They show Python scikit-bio usage, not shell execution.
The flagged locations are inside Markdown documentation and examples. No subprocess, shell call, or command interpolation pattern was found in the reviewed files.
Low
Static Blocker Keywords Are Scientific Context False Positives
The C2, weak crypto, and reconnaissance alerts match scientific terms, axis labels, metadata, or performance guidance. No malware behavior is present.
The reviewed lines contain PCoA labels, metadata examples, biological descriptions, or caching advice. They do not contain command-and-control, cryptography, or reconnaissance logic.

Verify and export

The manifest and lockfile bind install artifacts to cryptographic hashes. This integrity claim is separate from the security assessment.
