This is AgentSkillsHub's free basic audit: an automated rule-based scan with 42 published rules built on SlowMist's agent-security taxonomy (credential theft, obfuscated payloads, privilege escalation, covert instructions to the agent, and more) across 186,000+ open-source AI agent skills and MCP servers, refreshed every 8 hours. A SAFE grade is a scan result, not a guarantee — deep 5-dimension audits (code · credentials · vendor · supply-chain · operational) are available for enterprise. Audited: 2026-10-24.
