3-verify-pr-fix — independently scanned and version-tracked by SaferSkills.
SaferSkills independently audited 3-verify-pr-fix (Agent Skill) and scored it 45/100 (orange). 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 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.
*.sig, SIGNATURES) outside the documentation.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.
Review the packet, the candidate diff, and relevant tests. Live comparison against a captured baseline is optional. No edits, no merges, no pushes.

gh pr view $PR --repo $REPO --json title,body,baseRefName,headRefName,headRepositoryOwner,mergeable,mergeStateStatus,additions,deletions,changedFiles,maintainerCanModify,statusCheckRollupExtract the linked issue number from the PR body (Closes #, Fixes #, Resolves #, or plain #N). Call it ISSUE. If multiple, ask which one is the verification target.
Read that issue's packet and comments.
This path does not need /tmp/repro-issue-$ISSUE-main.json. Absence of a local baseline limits the live branch, not the whole PR verdict. Do not create fake success or failure files.
gh pr diff $PR --repo $REPO
gh pr view $PR --repo $REPO --json files --jq '.files[].path'Hard flags (any one downgrades a clean live pass to concerns):

Minimal generic selectors only (a[href*="/jobs/view/"]).PERSON_SECTIONS / COMPANY_SECTIONS entry.docs/linkedin-architecture.md.A supplied capture or regression fixture can support a before-and-after claim within its scope. Protocol or startup failures are execution limits, not a pass.
This step is complete when the report can say whether the diff addresses the packet at this SHA, which audit flags apply, and whether a live comparison is still needed.
Only after an explicit yes, and only when a genuine captured baseline exists.
