Grades are a hygiene check, not a security guarantee.

Claude Code, Skill

Skill Forge

Audit, validate, pressure-test, and grade OpenAI or portable Agent Skills from ZIPs, folders, or SKILL.md drafts; diagnose triggering, suggest fixes, and assess release readiness.

Compatibility: Not stated.

Grade C

One Medium finding. Read the report before installing.

Graded by PlugVetRubric v2

Not a guarantee. A hygiene check of the source at the commit shown, not a security audit.

OBFUSCATION_MINIFIED_PAYLOAD

Why this grade

  • OBFUSCATION_MINIFIED_PAYLOAD Medium

    Contains a very long line with almost no spaces in a script or style file.

    scripts/run_bounded_tests.py, line 239 print(json.dumps(dict(source_read=pathlib.Path('/source/canary').read_text()=='synthetic',source_write_denied=denied('/source/canary'),root_write_denied=denied('/tmp/outside'),scra

Any High, or two or more Medium findings, give D. One Medium gives C. Low findings or a security Note give B. Each code names a finding behind the letter.

Grades are a hygiene check of the source at the commit shown, on the date checked, not a security audit or a guarantee. The free directory grades are automated. Before release, a PlugVet engineer reviews every paid report and any grade we hold back, including all F grades, against the source code and the evidence we quote.
