About reading-block

Reading Block Save articles with one click. Every five saves, your browser books you a quiet 30-minute reading block on your Google Calendar so you actually read them. 📺 Watch the demo video (2 minutes) This is the Google Calendar version. If you prefer Feishu/Lark Calendar, check out the Feishu/Lark version. Reading Block is a Chrome extension for people who save a lot of "I'll read this later" links and never get back to them. Instead of another list that grows forever, it turns your saved reading into real appointments with yourself. Why use it We all collect links. Long articles, essays, videos, threads. They pile up in tabs and bookmarks and read-it-later apps, and "later" never comes, because nothing ever puts that reading on your actual schedule. Reading Block fixes the missing step: it books the time. Save five things, and it finds a free slot on a day and time you choose (say, weekday afternoons) and puts a 30-minute Reading Block on your calendar with those five links right in the event. When the block ends, it asks what you finished, and quietly rolls anything you didn't into your next session. It's simple on purpose.

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.
