SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

💡 This Skill includes scripts (resource) components.

What problem does it solve?

This Skill prevents the accidental adoption of malicious or insecure software by enforcing a rigorous, security-first triage process before any external code is integrated into your environment.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • Automated Triage: Evaluates GitHub repositories against strict security criteria including age, provenance, and license validity.
  • Risk-Based Decisioning: Provides a structured 4-option recommendation (Doc-mine, Clone-audit, Install-direct, or Park) based on the repository's blast radius.
  • Use Case: When you encounter a new GitHub tool that promises to automate your workflow, use this Skill to audit its source code, check for telemetry or credential-stealing hooks, and determine if it is safe to install.

Quick Start

Use the repo-audit skill to evaluate the safety and utility of the repository at https://github.com/owner/repo.

High-intent search queries and answers about installing and using this skill.

FAQPage Schema
How do I audit a GitHub repository for supply-chain attacks before integration?

To audit a GitHub repository for supply-chain attacks, perform a security-focused triage that verifies repository age, provenance, and license validity, followed by manual source-code inspection to detect telemetry or credential-stealing hooks before installation.

What is the best way to triage external libraries for security risks?

The best way to triage external libraries for security risks is to apply a structured evaluation process that assesses the repository's blast radius and enforces strict security gates, yielding a decision to doc-mine, clone-audit, install-direct, or park the tool.

How do I check if a new GitHub tool contains malicious code or credential-stealing hooks?

To check if a new GitHub tool contains malicious code or credential-stealing hooks, conduct a manual source-code inspection during triage to identify suspicious telemetry, unauthorized network calls, or credential exfiltration attempts in high-risk components.

When do I need to perform a source-level audit on external repositories?

You need to perform a source-level audit on external repositories when evaluating new tools, libraries, or agentic workflows before integrating them into a secure environment to prevent the accidental adoption of insecure software.

Does repo-audit work for evaluating agentic workflows and new tools?

Yes, repo-audit works for evaluating agentic workflows and new tools by applying strict security criteria, including age verification and provenance checks, to determine if the external code is safe to install in your environment.

What are the limitations of automated security triage for external repositories?

Automated security triage for external repositories is limited by the necessity of manual source-code inspection for high-risk components, meaning automated checks alone cannot fully guarantee safety without human verification of complex code paths.
