While they feel like "magic," from a security perspective, they are just another attack surface with specific vulnerabilities in how they define and execute "skills." we built skillaudit.sh because I wanted a minimalist, lightweight tool to audit these new skill definitions without the overhead of heavy frameworks. It focuses on the practical,…
