About safety-tooling

safety-tooling This is a repo designed to be shared across many AI Safety projects. It has built up since Summer 2023 during projects with Ethan Perez. The code primarily provides an LLM API with a common interface for OpenAI, Anthropic and Google models. The aim is that this repo continues to grow and evolve as more collaborators start to use it, ultimately speeding up new AI Safety researchers that join the cohort in the future. Furthermore, it provides an opportunity for those who have less of a software engineering background to upskill in contributing to a larger codebase that has many users. This repo works great as a git submodule. This has the benefit of having the ease of being able to commit changes that everyone can benefit from. When you into the submodule directory, you can and to that repository. We provide an example repo that uses as a submodule here: https://github.com/safety-research/safety-examples The code can also eaisly be pip installed if that is more suitable for your use case. Repository setup Installation (from clone) To set up the development environment for this project, follow the steps below: We recommend using to manage the python environment.

How this security grade is produced

Grades come from a rule-based scan built on the SlowMist agent-security taxonomy, covering 11 red-flag categories including credential harvesting, data exfiltration, and curl | sh installers. It is a first-layer scan, not a manual audit — we say so rather than overstate it.

The scale of the problem is documented independently: Liu et al. (2026), in a study of 31,132 agent skills, report that 26.1% contain security vulnerabilities. Our own full-catalog census is published as a citable open dataset.
