Zero-context hunks: apply with git apply --unidiff-zero fix.patch on the tagged source of 4.0.0. If the behavior is intended, declare it (host under permissions.network, a line in the README) instead of removing it; the next crawl scores declarations.
Issue / PR body
Title: cli: HTML comment carrying imperative instructions to the agent (KillerSkills verdict caution 78)
## What the honeypot observed KillerSkills ran **[email protected]** in an isolated sandbox (decoy credentials, recording proxy, syscall trace; engine 1.7) and scored it **CAUTION 78/100**. Summary: no network, touches nothing outside the project, writes no memory. - See the findings below. Full trace and findings: https://killerskills.ai/skills/npm/cli/4.0.0 ## Findings with a location - `README.md:207` · HTML comment carrying imperative instructions to the agent — README.md:207 · HTML comment carrying imperative instructions to the agent - `README.md:231` · HTML comment carrying imperative instructions to the agent — README.md:231 · HTML comment carrying imperative instructions to the agent - `README.md:1621` · HTML comment carrying imperative instructions to the agent — README.md:1621 · HTML comment carrying imperative instructions to the agent - `README.md:72` · HTML comment carrying imperative instructions to the agent — README.md:72 · HTML comment carrying imperative instructions to the agent ## Proposed change The attached patch removes the 4 lines above. If the behavior is intended, the fix is to declare it instead: list the host under `permissions.network` (or the MCP manifest) and say in the README why the package needs it; the next crawl will re-score it with the declaration taken into account. ## How this will be verified Nothing is "verified safe" by assertion. When a new version is published, KillerSkills re-runs it in the honeypot and the verdict page updates; you can trigger it early from the verdict page ("Re-scan after I publish a fix"). Reply here or at [email protected] if you believe the verdict is wrong; disputes are reviewed by a person and the outcome is published on the verdict page. _Proposed through killerskills.ai/threats by a user of the package, under their own GitHub account. The evidence is public; the package was never modified by KillerSkills._

We count proposals opened, not merged: a merge shows up as a new version that the crawl re-runs. Disputes: the maintainer can contest the verdict from its page; a person reviews it and the outcome is published.
