Vet a skill for safety before installing it from a skill market, skillhub or GitHub by checking red flags, permission scope and suspicious patterns.

About

skill-vetter is a security-first protocol for checking whether a skill is safe to install, run before pulling anything from a skill market, skillhub, GitHub or other source. It inspects red flags, permission scope and suspicious patterns and gives a safe-to-install verdict. A solo builder uses it as a gate so an agent does not blindly install untrusted third-party skills.
