Warnings:
- Trust score: Potentially useful, but at least one trust signal needs human inspection.
- Audit score: Needs review
- Agent safety gate: Sparse or mixed signals. Useful for discovery, but not for autonomous installation.

- Permission surface may require sandboxing
- SKILL.md mandates the use of AskUserQuestion tool for identity and fact-checking, which may not be available in all agent environments.

- Quality score needs review
- Permission surface needs review: secrets or environment access, network or browser access
- Stars/forks activity: 143 stars, 16 forks; issue activity unavailable in current metadata

Validation plan:
1. Inspect repository, README/SKILL.md, license, and recent commits before production use.
2. Install in an isolated workspace or sandbox with no production secrets available.
3. Run the smallest representative task and record files touched, commands run, network access, and outputs.
4. Compare the selected skill against at least one alternative when the eval status is review or failed.
5. Promote only after the agent reports a successful verification result and unresolved warnings are accepted.

Do not use when:
- teams that need a vendor-supported SLA
- production agents without a repository review
- SKILL.md mandates the use of AskUserQuestion tool for identity and fact-checking, which may not be available in all agent environments.
- No OpenAgentSkill engagement data yet
- High-risk permission hints: Secrets or environment access
