What Skill Inspector does

Skill Inspector reviews AI agent skills before installation using NVIDIA SkillSpector static scanning and source-aware semantic review. Use it when you need to decide whether a skill or downloaded skill folder is safe, trustworthy, installable, over-permissioned, or malicious.

Skill Inspector is cataloged under Quality on DirSkills. Skill Inspector comes from a repository tagged agent-security, agent-skills, agentic-ai, ai-security and claude-code.

Documentation

README

Skill Inspector

Goal

Decide whether an AI agent skill is safe to install, keep installed, or submit for review.

Use two independent review lines:

  1. SkillSpector static evidence: deterministic scanning for known risk patterns.
  2. Agent semantic review: source-aware judgment about intent, permission fit, hidden behavior, and user control.

Do not rely on the numeric score alone. A low score can miss semantic risk, and a high score can be justified when sensitive behavior is clearly documented, necessary, and bounded.

Operating Rules

This is the opening of the README. Read the full README on GitHub.
