Creator research skills for Claude Code and Codex: see what's working on YouTube, Instagram, and TikTok, review accounts and competitors, break down videos, and plan what to post, with the public evidence attached.

Compatibility: Not stated.

Grade C

One Medium finding. Read the findings before installing.

Graded by PlugVetRubric v2

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

Rescanned at commit fcd7ceb6c88e.

SECRETS_PATH_CREDENTIAL

Why this grade

  • SECRETS_PATH_CREDENTIAL Medium

    Mentions a credential store path (~/.ssh, id_rsa, .npmrc, .aws/credentials, credentials.json, .netrc).

    plugins/claude/kabo-alpha/scripts/lib/common.js, line 6 // tab (any device works), and the token lands in <data root>/credentials.json with mode 0600.

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.
