The sandbox observed nothing beyond the static findings; the proposal cites those.

Issue / PR body

Title: ffmpeg-skill: Hidden zero-width characters detected (KillerSkills verdict caution 61)

## 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 61/100**. Summary: no network, touches nothing outside the project, writes no memory.

- See the findings below.

Full trace and findings: https://killerskills.ai/skills/npm/ffmpeg-skill/3.1.8

## Findings with a location
- `scripts/_common/emoji.py:75` · Hidden zero-width characters detected — scripts/_common/emoji.py:75 · Hidden zero-width characters detected — may conceal content
- `scripts/_common/emoji.py:70` · Hidden zero-width characters detected — scripts/_common/emoji.py:70 · Hidden zero-width characters detected — may conceal content
- `scripts/_common/emoji.py:32` · Hidden zero-width characters detected — scripts/_common/emoji.py:32 · Hidden zero-width characters detected — may conceal content

## Proposed change
The attached patch removes the 3 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.
