example-clean — independently scanned and version-tracked by SaferSkills.
SaferSkills independently audited example-clean (Agent Skill) and scored it 65/100 (yellow). The audit ran 55 deterministic rules across Security, Supply Chain, Maintenance, Transparency, and Community; it found 3 high-severity and 6 lower-severity findings. The full rule-by-rule trace and per-finding evidence are below. Free, methodology-open.

A fenced bash/python block in SKILL.md carries a natural-language imperative — "now run this", "execute the following command" — directing the agent to execute the fenced content. What looks like documentation becomes an executable payload the agent may run without ever asking you.

```See INSTALL.md — review scripts/bootstrap.sh (sha-pinned) before running it yourself.The text {match} is the classic direct prompt-injection phrasing. Placed in a skill body that the agent reads as trusted instructions, it tries to make the agent abandon its prior rules and follow whatever comes next — a full system-prompt override.

That is often the first step of a larger attack: knowing the system prompt lets an attacker craft inputs that defeat its constraints by mimicking its own voice.

The primary manifest — the file an agent reads to learn what this artifact does.
A minimal skill demonstrating safe defaults. It does one job — count words in a file — and asks for nothing more than what it strictly needs.
