Detects downloading a binary file followed by making it executable
curl -fsSL https://cli.github.com/packages/githubcli-archive + ./a 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.
Detects system-level package installation via brew, apt, yum, or dnf
brew install g Pin system packages to specific versions where the package manager supports it. Document the exact packages required and prefer containerized environments to avoid system-wide changes.
Likely FP if the match is standard setup documentation listing well-known system packages (e.g., apt install git curl) that are prerequisites.
Detects chained commands using shell operators with dangerous operations
curl -fsSL https://cli.github.com/packages/githubcli-archive-keyring.gpg | sudo 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.
Detects system-level package installation via brew, apt, yum, or dnf
apt install g Pin system packages to specific versions where the package manager supports it. Document the exact packages required and prefer containerized environments to avoid system-wide changes.
Likely FP if the match is standard setup documentation listing well-known system packages (e.g., apt install git curl) that are prerequisites.
Detects execution of shell script files via bash/sh command or direct invocation
./aliases.sh 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.
Detects instructions to modify shell config files for environment persistence
Add to ~/.bashrc or ~/.zshrc Avoid modifying shell profiles (.bashrc, .zshrc, .profile) programmatically. Instruct users to add PATH entries manually, or use a version manager (nvm, pyenv) instead.
Likely FP if the match is documentation showing how to add a tool to PATH manually, especially if it only appends to PATH without modifying other settings.
