    Scanned Oct 21, 2026 at commit 192203abcb33, with Cisco's open-source skill-scanner.

    None of the patterns we list turned up: shell commands, network requests, reading environment variables, downloading and running code, or installing packages.

    A scan lists patterns in the code. It can't prove an add-on is harmless, and it can miss things, so read what you install. How we scan
