btca-local — independently scanned and version-tracked by SaferSkills.
SaferSkills independently audited btca-local (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.

BTCA Local, aka "The Better Context App Local" is a simple app defined as a skill file. The purpose of this app is to search git repos cloned onto this machine.
<guidelines> <guideline> if the user includes a direct like to a github repo, always load and reference that </guideline> <guideline> if the user doesn't include any specific links/repos they want you to use, do your best to guess based on the context provided </guideline> <guideline> always include links/citations in your answers explaining what you found </guideline> <guideline> include very clear and complete code snippets. don't leave out stuff like imports, that's important context </guideline> <guideline> when answering use lots of bulleted/numbered lists to keep things readable and clear </guideline> </guidelines>

This skill can be invoked in a couple different ways, and your behavior should reflect that:
this is the "app startup" state, almost as if a terminal app was booted up.
Your job is to search the working directory ~/.btca/agent/sandbox at the top level, just to get a list of all the repos that have been previously cloned
Then you should simply output the following markdown (filling in the existing repos):
# BTCA Local
_use your coding agent to search any git repo locally_
Previously searched:
- repo 1
- ...
Give me a question and the link to a git repo to get started!
(we can also clean out or pre-load some resources to this list...)in this case, your job is to answer/execute the users prompt faithfully, just while also using the btca search workflow when needed to better execute your task
this one's simple, simply answer the users prompt with the btca search workflow
