trellis-break-loop-6e926e — independently scanned and version-tracked by SaferSkills.
SaferSkills independently audited trellis-break-loop-6e926e (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.
When debug is complete, use this for deep analysis to break the "fix bug -> forget -> repeat" cycle.
Analyze the bug you just fixed from these 5 dimensions:
Which category does this bug belong to?
| Category | Characteristics | Example |
|---|---|---|
| A. Missing Spec | No documentation on how to do it | New feature without checklist |
| B. Cross-Layer Contract | Interface between layers unclear | API returns different format than expected |
| C. Change Propagation Failure | Changed one place, missed others | Changed function signature, missed call sites |
| D. Test Coverage Gap | Unit test passes, integration fails | Works alone, breaks when combined |
| E. Implicit Assumption | Code relies on undocumented assumption | Timestamp seconds vs milliseconds |
If you tried multiple fixes before succeeding, analyze each failure:
What mechanisms would prevent this from happening again?
| Type | Description | Example |
|---|---|---|
| Documentation | Write it down so people know | Update thinking guide |
| Architecture | Make the error impossible structurally | Type-safe wrappers |
| Compile-time | Strict type checking, no escape hatches | Signature change causes compile error |
| Runtime | Monitoring, alerts, scans | Detect orphan entities |
| Test Coverage | E2E tests, integration tests | Verify full flow |
| Code Review | Checklist, PR template | "Did you check X?" |
