Grade A, minimal risk: 0 of 100 risk points, rated 2026-10-20. The grade rates what the skill and its scripts can reach on the machine of whoever installs it, across eight categories from shell execution to secrets access. How the score works.
This skill is a markdown-only framework for synthesizing customer research into an Ideal Customer Profile. It does not ship executable code or ask for system access; the main consideration is the sensitivity of whatever customer data you choose to feed it, plus two outbound reference links.
| Category | Level | Why |
|---|---|---|
| Code & shell execution | 0 (none) | No scripts, shell commands, or code execution are included; the skill is plain Markdown guidance only. |
| Network access | 0 (none) | It does not fetch remote content or send data anywhere; the only remote references are passive “Further Reading” links. |
| Filesystem reach | 0 (none) | There are no file reads, writes, deletes, or paths outside the project described in the skill. |
| Secrets & credentials | 0 (none) | The skill does not ask for API keys, passwords, tokens, or other credentials; it only references customer research data in general. |
| Privilege & persistence | 0 (none) | No sudo, service registration, shell startup edits, or other privilege changes are present. |
| Instruction hijack surface | 0 (none) | The text contains no instructions to ignore policies, hide behavior, or follow external prompts; it is straightforward analytical guidance. |
| Irreversible actions | 0 (none) | It produces an ICP analysis but does not act on the result by posting, deploying, purchasing, or deleting anything. |
| Transparency | 0 (none) | Everything provided is readable Markdown; there are no binaries, encoded blobs, or generated installers. |
Before installing
- No install-time checks are needed; this is documentation only.
- If you will pass real survey/interview data into the skill, redact PII and any confidential customer notes first.
- If you plan to use the two external “Further Reading” links, review their destination sites before opening them in your environment.
