Risk Level: SAFE
Full Analysis
- [COMMAND_EXECUTION]: The skill uses the Bash tool to execute search queries by piping Dimensions Search Language (DSL) strings to the
shortwingCLI utility. This is the intended and primary mechanism for the skill's functionality. - [CREDENTIALS_UNSAFE]: The documentation identifies
~/.dimensions/dsl.iniand environment variables likeDIMENSIONS_KEYas storage locations for API credentials. These are standard practices for CLI tools and no instructions are provided to the agent to read or exfiltrate these files. - [EXTERNAL_DOWNLOADS]: The skill includes instructions to install the
shortwingtool from a local directory (~/aves/shortwing) usinguv pip install. This references local infrastructure rather than an untrusted remote source.
