muster@r1
CAUTION· install onlyPublisher claims: "Enables Claude Code sessions to discover and exchange live messages on one machine or across paired machines, waking idle sessions via hooks without dangerous flags, with durable message storage and secure TLS pairing." Observed in sandbox: calls github.com only, touches nothing outside the project, writes no memory.
Coverage
Install scripts ran; no agent task scenario for this bundle.- Tested
- install scripts, with decoy credentials in place · second launch with the clock 45 days ahead · every file read, file written and host contacted by what ran
- Not tested
- use of the skill by an agent
What this means for the label: Caution here covers what ran. The server's tools were not exercised with a real credential, so nothing about their behavior is asserted; the credential summary below says what to do with that.

- What we could not test
- use of the skill by an agent
Connect it with a scoped credential, under the guard, and read the third-party hosts first. The code names apple.com, rustup.rs, evil.example as well as its own vendor. The guard injects D_TOKEN, E_TOKEN, L_TOKEN, LATE_TOKEN, LINK_TOKEN, LOCAL_TOKEN, MTOKEN, REVOKED_TOKEN only into requests to muster.example (and its subdomains) and refuses the rest.
Never paste a credential into a chat, a ticket or a report, including ours. How the guard holds it.
Is muster@r1 safe to install?
KillerSkills ran it in the KillerSkills honeypot sandbox (2 scenarios; install scripts ran; no agent task scenario for this bundle) on 2026-11-11 and scored it 73/100 (Caution). It is not known to be malicious, but it has behaviour or code a security policy should decide on before install. Notable findings: Destructive command against a filesystem root or device; Destructive file system command detected. Summary: calls github.com only, touches nothing outside the project, writes no memory.
