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

Historical evidence

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

Open current Skill page

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

Static shell and network findings are partly true positives because the script creates an archive and uploads it to a hardcoded hosted endpoint. Many SKILL.md backtick, weak-crypto, and reconnaissance flags are false positives from documentation text, but the semantic risk remains high because project source and possible secrets can be sent outside the local workspace.

Capability review items (4)
High
Project Archive Uploaded to Hardcoded External Endpoint
TRUE POSITIVE: the script defines a hosted deploy endpoint, archives the selected project, and uploads that archive with curl. This can disclose source code, configuration files, and local secrets to a third-party service.
The endpoint, archive creation, and upload are directly present in the script. Deployment requires network upload, but the data exposure risk is clear and material.
Medium
Deployment Package Does Not Exclude Common Secret Files
TRUE POSITIVE: the tar command excludes node_modules and .git only. Files such as .env, private keys, build artifacts, and service credentials can be included if they are present in the project directory.
The exclusion list is visible and limited. I did not find evidence of secret filtering before upload.
Medium
User-Supplied Directory or Tarball Is Uploaded Without Review
TRUE POSITIVE: the script accepts a path argument or an existing .tgz file and uploads it to the deployment endpoint. There is no manifest preview, size warning, or confirmation step before data leaves the workspace.
The path handling and upload are explicit. The risk depends on user choice, but the script provides no guardrail against uploading sensitive archives.
Low
Script Can Rename a User HTML File
TRUE POSITIVE: for static HTML projects, the script may rename a single HTML file to index.html. This local mutation is intentional but can surprise users and alter their working tree.
The rename branch is directly present and uses mv. The behavior is limited to one static HTML case, so severity is low.

Analysis metadata

Audit model: codex

Analysis state: Complete

Scope is limited to the recorded files, lines, methods, and evidence. No runtime or sandbox execution is claimed.

Static false positives ignored (2)
Low
Documentation Backtick and Weak-Crypto Flags Are False Positives
FALSE POSITIVE: SKILL.md contains fenced examples, inline code, URLs, and framework text. I found no prompt injection attempt, cryptographic operation, or executable backtick expansion in the Markdown content.
The cited Markdown lines are descriptive text and examples. There is no evidence that these lines execute commands or define weak cryptography.
Low
Shell Command Substitutions Are Mostly Legitimate Workflow Steps
FALSE POSITIVE WITH RESIDUAL RISK: command substitutions gather file paths, parse responses, and detect frameworks. They are not direct command injection evidence because variables are quoted, but they support the higher-risk archive upload workflow.
The shell substitutions are visible and appear quoted in the relevant command contexts. The residual concern is data handling, not direct shell injection.

Verify and export

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