Download the script first, inspect it, verify its checksum, then run it. Do not pipe curl/wget output directly to sh/bash. Prefer package manager installs.

Likely FP if the download is from a well-known installer domain (e.g., brew.sh, rustup.rs), though this pattern is inherently risky even with trusted sources.

Download the file first, verify its integrity (checksum, signature), inspect it, then run it. Prefer package managers over raw downloads. Never fetch-and-run in one step.

Likely FP if the target is a well-known installer (e.g., rustup, Homebrew) from its canonical HTTPS domain, though the pattern is inherently risky.

Pin the download to a specific version tag or commit hash. Verify the downloaded file's checksum before using it. Avoid piping curl output directly to a shell.

Likely FP if downloading from an official, well-known domain (e.g., deno.land, rustup.rs) with HTTPS, though this pattern remains risky even with trusted sources.

Sanitize or validate all external inputs (file contents, API responses, user messages) before including them in prompts or tool calls. Implement input/output boundaries between trusted and untrusted data.

Likely FP if the matched text is the skill's own instruction set describing how to handle user input, not an actual injection payload.

Replace direct shell script execution with a language-native implementation or a sandboxed executor. If shell scripts must run, restrict them to a vetted allowlist with integrity checks.

Likely FP if the match references running a script that is part of the skill's own repository (e.g., ./setup.sh) with clear, auditable contents.

Replace direct shell script execution with a language-native implementation or a sandboxed executor. If shell scripts must run, restrict them to a vetted allowlist with integrity checks.

Likely FP if the match references running a script that is part of the skill's own repository (e.g., ./setup.sh) with clear, auditable contents.

Break chained commands into discrete, individually validated steps. Avoid piping untrusted output directly into a shell interpreter.

Likely FP if the matched text is a documentation example showing a common installer one-liner for a well-known tool with a canonical URL.

Avoid loading configuration or behavior-controlling content from runtime URLs. Bundle required configurations locally or pin remote config to versioned, integrity-verified endpoints.

Likely FP if the URL in the match is a documentation link or example URL (e.g., example.com) rather than an actual runtime-fetched configuration endpoint.
