utility-mermaid-diagrams — independently scanned and version-tracked by SaferSkills.
SaferSkills independently audited utility-mermaid-diagrams (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.

Create effective, syntactically valid mermaid diagrams for product documents.
discover-journey-map, which composes this skill for its timeline or flowchart sectionDon't diagram what a list can say.
Diagrams earn their place when they reveal relationships, branching, or flow that prose flattens. Before creating any diagram, ask:
Does this show branching, relationships, or flow that a list or table would flatten?
A 5-step linear process is a list. A 5-step process with two decision points and a retry loop is a diagram.
