KillerSkills ran it in the KillerSkills honeypot sandbox (2 scenarios) on 2026-11-02 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: OS command execution function call detected; Access to sensitive file paths; Outbound HTTP to raw IP address. Summary: no network, touches nothing outside the project, writes no memory.
