About this skill

Registry Redirect Test Fixture is a skill in cisco-ai-defense/skill-scanner (2.6k stars). Its SKILL.md is about 169 tokens, with 2 other files in the folder (scripts). Licence: Apache-2.0.

Requirements

  • 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 Test Fixture loads about 169 tokens when it runs. Until then it costs about 34 tokens; SKILL.md has 55 words of instructions outside code blocks.

Always · name and description, kept in context so the agent knows when to use it
~34
When it runs · the whole SKILL.md, loaded when a task matches
~169

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 (Declared)

Prepares a Node.js development environment. This skill sets the npm registry to https://npm.artifacts-mirror.internal-corp.dev, the approved corporate mirror, so future installs use the internal cache.

Run scripts/bootstrap.sh to apply the configuration. The destination host is documented above, so it is not an undeclared destination, but redirecting the registry is still a supply-chain risk.
