Doiget — independently scanned and version-tracked by SaferSkills.
SaferSkills independently audited Doiget (Agent Skill) and scored it 45/100 (orange). The audit ran 55 deterministic rules across Security, Supply Chain, Maintenance, Transparency, and Community; it found 7 high-severity and 0 lower-severity findings. The full rule-by-rule trace and per-finding evidence are below. Free, methodology-open.

A base64 string of 128+ characters appears in a documentation file. Encoded prompt injection hides the hostile instruction in base64 — invisible to keyword filters — and relies on the agent's ability to decode it at runtime. There is no normal authoring reason to embed a multi-hundred-byte base64 blob in skill docs.

The primary manifest — the file an agent reads to learn what this artifact does.
A single-binary CLI + stdio MCP server that turns DOIs and arXiv ids into local PDFs through official, OA-first APIs. Designed as the agent-facing companion to BiblioFetch.jl.
Docs: stable = the Zola site (built from main); dev = rustdoc built from next; API = docs.rs (latest published release).
Status: Shipping on crates.io (doiget-core, doiget-cli, doiget-mcp), with sigstore-signed binaries + an SBOM attached to the GitHub Release. Tier 1 + Tier 2 sources, the stdio MCP server, citation-graph expansion, and gated TDM sources are all implemented. Releases are cut by a single signed git tag through the tag-driven pipeline (see ADR-0025); release-plz was retired. See CHANGELOG.md for history and docs/PHASES.md for the phase plan.
doiget is a general-purpose automation tool for retrieving papers via official publisher APIs. By design, doiget only attempts retrieval through:
doiget does not work around any access control mechanism, redistribute papers, host content, operate as a SaaS, or bundle any publisher API keys.
Users are responsible for ensuring they have the right to access the content they request and for compliance with each source's Terms of Service.
See docs/LEGAL.md and docs/SCOPE.md.

doiget ships a single self-contained binary — the Linux build is fully static (musl), so it runs on old glibc / HPC boxes too. Every channel installs the same checksum-verified binary from the signed GitHub Release.

doiget serveDefault features fetch only Open Access PDFs through Crossref / Unpaywall / arXiv. Institutional TDM access (Springer OA, APS Harvest, Elsevier ScienceDirect TDM) is not in the default published binary; it must be opted in at build time per publisher. See docs/SOURCES.md.
doiget and BiblioFetch.jl share the same on-disk store format (TOML metadata + PDF files under a configurable store root). doiget defaults to ./papers (under the current working directory; ADR-0036), BiblioFetch.jl to ~/papers/; point both at the same root (e.g. DOIGET_STORE_ROOT=~/papers) to share one store. The shared schema, locking protocol, and atomic write contract are specified in docs/STORE.md. Reference test vectors for the shared safekey algorithm are in docs/SAFEKEY.md.
| Tool | Best for |
