github-commander — independently scanned and version-tracked by SaferSkills.
SaferSkills independently audited github-commander (Agent Skill) and scored it 82/100 (green). The audit ran 55 deterministic rules across Security, Supply Chain, Maintenance, Transparency, and Community; it found 2 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.

The primary manifest — the file an agent reads to learn what this artifact does.
Structured, configurable workflows that teach AI agents to triage GitHub issues, review PRs, and sprint through milestones. Every action is journaled for full audit trails, and human-in-the-loop checkpoints keep you in control.
The reason every step journals its results is that it creates a searchable audit trail — future sessions can find exactly what was tried, what passed, and what failed, without the human needing to remember or repeat context.
Load this skill when any of these apply:
| Workflow | File | Purpose |
|---|---|---|
| Issue Triage | workflows/issue-triage.md | Fix a single GitHub issue end-to-end |
| PR Review | workflows/pr-review.md | Review a PR with validation pipeline |
| Milestone Sprint | workflows/milestone-sprint.md | Work through milestone issues sequentially |
| Roadmap Kickoff | workflows/roadmap-kickoff.md | Translate planning epics into Kanban issues |
| Update Dependencies | workflows/update-deps.md | Dependency update with audit trail |
gh CLI authenticated (gh auth status)GITHUB_TOKEN set for API accessPROJECT_REGISTRY configured for repo auto-detectionAll commands are configurable via environment variables. Defaults assume a Node.js project. Override for other ecosystems (Python, Rust, Go, etc.).
| Variable | Default | Description |
|---|---|---|
PROJECT_LINT_CMD | npm run lint | Lint command |
PROJECT_TYPECHECK_CMD | npm run typecheck | Type-check command (empty = skip) |
PROJECT_BUILD_CMD | npm run build | Build command (empty = skip) |
PROJECT_TEST_CMD | npm run test | Unit/integration test command |
PROJECT_E2E_CMD | _(empty = skip)_ | E2E test command |
PROJECT_PACKAGE_MANAGER | _(auto-detect)_ | npm, yarn, pnpm, or bun |
PROJECT_HAS_DOCKERFILE | _(auto-detect)_ | true to enable Docker audit steps |
COMMANDER_HITL_FILE_THRESHOLD | 10 | HITL if changes touch > N files |
COMMANDER_SECURITY_TOOLS | _(auto-detect)_ | Comma-separated override list |
COMMANDER_BRANCH_PREFIX | fix | Branch naming prefix |
If PROJECT_PACKAGE_MANAGER is not set, detect by lockfile:
bun.lockb or bun.lock → bunpnpm-lock.yaml → pnpmyarn.lock → yarnpackage-lock.json → npmnpmWhen COMMANDER_SECURITY_TOOLS is not set, each tool is detected independently:
| Tool | Detection | What It Scans |
|---|---|---|
npm-audit | Always (Node.js project) | Dependency vulnerabilities |
codeql | codeql CLI or gh codeql | Static analysis (SAST) |
trivy | trivy --version succeeds | Container images, filesystems |
docker-scout | docker scout version succeeds | Docker image CVEs |
gitleaks | gitleaks version succeeds | Secrets in git history |
trufflehog | trufflehog --version succeeds | Secrets (verified only) |
Missing tools are skipped with a journal note — never a failure.
Every workflow uses sequential validation gates. Each gate must pass before the next runs. On failure, the agent attempts to auto-fix (lint/type errors). If auto-fix fails after 2 attempts, the agent requests human input.
Gate 1: Lint + Typecheck → Gate 2: Build → Gate 3: Tests → Gate 4: E2E → Gate 5: SecurityGates configured with empty commands are skipped automatically.
Every significant action creates a journal entry with structured tags:
Entries link to issues/PRs via issue_number and pr_number fields, connecting to the knowledge graph automatically.
The agent pauses and requests human approval when:
