What would fix thisWatchDispute verdict

Is [email protected] safe to install?

KillerSkills ran it in the KillerSkills honeypot sandbox (1 scenario) on 2026-10-30 and scored it 65/100 (Caution). It is not known to be malicious, but it has behaviour or code a security policy should decide on before install. Notable findings: Outbound HTTP to raw IP address; Auto-update or dynamic fetch configuration; Instructs the agent to modify its persistent memory or instruction files. Summary: no network, touches nothing outside the project, writes no memory.
