Safety box score
Grade A, minimal risk: 4 of 100 risk points, rated 2026-10-19. 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 is a documentation-only pricing-analysis skill: it reads any files the user provides and may use web search to research competitor pricing. It does not ship scripts or direct actions, so the main exposure is limited external querying and the business context contained in the materials you ask it to analyze.
| Category | Level | Why |
|---|---|---|
| Code & shell execution | 0 (none) | The skill is a single markdown instruction file and contains no shell commands, code, or native scripts to execute. |
| Network access | 1 (low) | It explicitly says, "Use web search to research competitor pricing if needed," which can send queries and context to external sites. |
| Filesystem reach | 0 (none) | It only says to read user-provided files first; there is no instruction to write, delete, or access paths outside the working context. |
| Secrets & credentials | 0 (none) | There is no request to collect tokens, passwords, `.env` files, browser sessions, or other secret material. |
| Privilege & persistence | 0 (none) | No sudo, service installation, shell startup edits, or other privilege-changing actions are mentioned. |
| Instruction hijack surface | 0 (none) | The content gives normal analysis instructions only; it does not ask the agent to ignore rules, hide things, or follow remote instructions. |
| Irreversible actions | 0 (none) | It recommends analysis and pricing recommendations only; it does not place orders, send messages, publish, deploy, or otherwise act on behalf of the person. |
| Transparency | 0 (none) | There are no binaries, installers, base64 blobs, or generated/decoded code; the entire skill is readable markdown. |
Before installing
- Review whether sending pricing context to web search is acceptable for your use case.
- If you will provide sensitive financials or unreleased pricing plans, test it first with sanitized sample files.
- Confirm that you want a recommendation-only workflow; this skill does not itself create or publish pricing changes.
