KillerSkills ran it in the KillerSkills honeypot sandbox (2 scenarios) on 2026-10-31 and scored it 67/100 (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; Instructs the agent to modify its persistent memory or instruction files; Instructs the agent to modify its persistent memory or instruction files. Summary: no network, touches nothing outside the project, writes no memory.
