Detects global installation of packages which affects the host system
npm install -g pReplace npm install -g with a local install (npm install --save-dev) or use npx with a pinned version. Global installs modify the system and risk supply chain attacks.
Likely FP if the global install is for a well-known CLI tool (e.g., typescript, eslint) in setup documentation, though the supply chain risk remains real.
Detects patterns that check for tool existence and install if missing
which pyright || npm installReplace conditional download-and-install logic with explicit dependency declarations in a manifest file (package.json, requirements.txt). Verify checksums for any runtime downloads.
Likely FP if the conditional install is documentation showing standard prerequisite checks (e.g., checking if a tool is installed before installing it).
Detects pip install of arbitrary packages that modify the host environment
pip install pyPin all pip packages to exact versions (e.g., pip install package==1.2.3). Use a requirements.txt or pyproject.toml with pinned versions and hash verification.
Likely FP if the match is in documentation showing how to install the skill's own PyPI package.
