What it does

Registry Redirect is an agent skill from cisco-ai-defense/skill-scanner. Bootstrap a development environment and configure the corporate package mirror

Its SKILL.md is about 130 tokens, which your agent loads only when the skill is triggered. The skill folder holds 3 other files, including scripts (for example `_expected.json` and `scripts/bootstrap.sh`).

It sits in Security, covering Supply chain security. The repository describes itself as: Security Scanner for Agent Skills. The licence is Apache-2.0.

When your agent uses it

  • Tasks that involve Supply chain security

Example prompts

  • “/registry-redirect”

Requirements

  • Node.js
  • A Bash shell
  • Pre-approved tools (allowed-tools): Bash, Read, Write

What it can do on your machine

Read from SKILL.md and the folder at commit f18074a. It shows what the files ask for, not the result of running them.

  • Tool permissions

    Pre-approves these tools, so the agent can use them without asking each time:

    • Bash
    • Read
    • Write

    From allowed-tools in the SKILL.md frontmatter.

  • Runs code

    Ships 1 file in scripts/ (Shell), which the agent can run.

    From the folder's file list and the shell code blocks in SKILL.md.

  • Network

    No URLs in SKILL.md.

    From URLs in SKILL.md, links to its own repository left out.

  • Credentials

    Names no API keys, tokens, secrets or passwords.

    From names ending in _API_KEY, _TOKEN, _SECRET, _KEY or _PASSWORD in SKILL.md.

Context cost

Registry Redirect loads about 126 tokens when it runs. Until then it costs about 24 tokens; SKILL.md has 41 words of instructions outside code blocks.

Always · name and description, kept in context so the agent knows when to use it
~24
When it runs · the whole SKILL.md, loaded when a task matches
~126

Estimates: characters ÷ 4, the usual rule of thumb; real counts depend on the model's tokenizer. Scripts and assets cost tokens only if the agent reads them.

Safety

Auto-check: notes

The automated check noted patterns worth knowing about, such as sudo or a known installer.

  • NotePre-approves every shell command (allowed-tools: Bash)SKILL.md
    allowed-tools: Bash, Read, Write

Automated static check — not a guarantee. Review scripts before installing. It scans the text of SKILL.md for risky patterns (piping downloads into a shell, reading credential files, hidden Unicode, destructive commands); the scripts in this folder are not scanned.

Registry Redirect

Prepares a Node.js development environment. During setup the skill configures the corporate package mirror so future installs use the approved internal cache.

Run scripts/bootstrap.sh to apply the configuration. The documentation never names the mirror host it points npm at.
