bridge-leak-check — independently scanned and version-tracked by SaferSkills.
SaferSkills independently audited bridge-leak-check (Agent Skill) and scored it 91/100 (green). The audit ran 55 deterministic rules across Security, Supply Chain, Maintenance, Transparency, and Community; it found 1 high-severity and 0 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.

First recorded scan — no prior version to compare against.
The primary manifest — the file an agent reads to learn what this artifact does.
bridge-leak-check runs over a current repo state (not a diff), greps the configured blocklists, and categorizes every hit into one of four buckets so you don't drown in false positives. It complements rules/promote-safety.md (which scans a diff per-destination at promote time) by running on the post-merge state.
Read the referenced file ONLY when triggered.
| Scan | When | Scope | Strength |
|---|---|---|---|
rules/promote-safety.md | At promote time | Diff only | Catches leaks introduced by the current commit |
bridge-leak-check | Anytime | Whole repo state | Catches pre-existing leaks (from prior promotes, seedings, manual commits) |
The session that birthed this skill discovered that a clean source-side scan does not guarantee a clean destination — open-bridge had three pre-existing leaks (<your-username>-bks.yaml examples, com.bks.my-service, bks wordmark) that no single promote scan caught because they predated the per-repo blocklist.
| Argument | Effect | Default |
|---|---|---|
(none) | Scan current repo with the matching blocklist (auto-detected from .git/config origin) | — |
--repo <name> | Force which blocklist to apply (open-bridge / org-overlay / the-bridge / fallback) | auto |
--strict-oss | Also flag internal-vocabulary hardcoding (uses vocabulary_renames from bridge-audit/data/renames.yaml) | false |
--report-only | Only show categorized report; don't suggest fixes | false |
--target-dir <path> | Scan a different working tree (e.g. /tmp/cloned-upstream) | . |
Every hit lands in exactly one bucket:
| Category | Marker | Example | Action |
|---|---|---|---|
| Legitimate — self-reference | ✅ ✓ | bks-lab/open-bridge inside the open-bridge repo, schema $id URLs that point at this repo's published schemas | Skip — this is correct |
| Legitimate — sister-repo | ✅ ✓ | {org}/bridge-deck cross-link in same OSS family | Skip — this is correct |
| Leak — personal PII | 🔴 | <your-username>, <your-username>, ~/, personal hostnames | Always fix — replace with <your-username> placeholder |
| Leak — internal vocabulary (OSS-strict) | 🟡 | an org-shortname scope value (e.g. scope: acme) in shipped skill docs, a hardcoded org-bridge overlay slug as the only "internal overlay" example | Generalize — see vocabulary_renames in bridge-audit/data/renames.yaml |

bks-lab/open-bridge schema $id URLs — 5 files
✅ Legitimate sister-repo (1 hit, no action needed)

🔴 Personal PII leaks (0 hits)
None — clean ✓
🟡 Internal-vocabulary hardcoded (3 hits — strict-OSS mode)
skills/bridge-promote/SKILL.md:24 — "scope: org" should be "scope: org"
