✅ VERDICT: SAFE
This skill is a documentation-focused wrapper for the ripgrep command-line tool. It provides examples of how to use rg for text searching. The skill itself does not contain any executable scripts or code that could pose a direct security threat. The installation instructions refer to trusted package managers (brew, apt) for a well-known, legitimate tool (ripgrep). While any skill that processes user-supplied text carries an inherent risk of indirect prompt injection if the AI agent processes the output without sanitization, this is a general risk and not a specific vulnerability in the skill's design.
