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

Most "fast" results come from broken benchmarks; catching this before running saves hours.pom.xml with jmh-core) or Gradle (me.champeau.jmh plugin). Setup differs; running differs. See references/maven.md or references/gradle.md.Throughput for ops/sec, AverageTime for ns/op, SingleShotTime for cold-path / startup, SampleTime for distribution (p50/p99). Wrong mode → wrong question answered.
