unattended-task-pitfalls@1.0.0

VERIFIED· install only

Publisher claims: "Hardening playbook for AI agent unattended/scheduled tasks (cron jobs, scheduled backups, auto-reports). Real incident-derived rules on background execution, artifact verification, isolated-session context blindness, notification design, and self-healing retries. Use when building or debugging cron/scheduled/automated agent tasks, "task failed but reported success" issues, corrupted backup artifacts, or silent misjudgment in scheduled summarization/archival jobs." Observed in sandbox: no network, touches nothing outside the project, writes no memory.

KillerSkills ran it in the KillerSkills honeypot sandbox (1 scenario; nothing executable in the bundle ran; the trace covers the install step only) on 2026-11-08 and scored it 88/100 (Verified). In what ran, nothing we could detect went wrong: no undeclared network egress, no credential reads, no persistent instruction writes. What it does with a real credential was not observed; the static findings and the publisher carry the rest of the score. Summary: no network, touches nothing outside the project, writes no memory.
