#!/usr/bin/env python3 """ Skills Guard — Security scanner for externally-sourced skills. Every skill downloaded from a registry passes through this scanner before installation. It uses regex-based static analysis and AST analysis to detect known-bad patterns (data exfiltration, prompt injection, destructive commands, persistence, obfuscation, etc.) and a trust-aware install policy that determines whether a skill is allowed based on both the scan verdict and the source's trust level. Trust levels: - builtin: Ships with Hermes. Never scanned, always trusted. - trusted: openai/skills and anthropics/skills only. Caution verdicts allowed. - community: Everything else. Any findings = blocked unless --force. Usage: from tools.skills_guard import scan_skill, should_allow_install, format_scan_report result = scan_skill(Path("skills/.hub/quarantine/some-skill"), source="community") allowed, reason = should_allow_install(result) if not allowed: print(format_scan_report(result)) """ import ast import hashlib import re import unicodedata from dataclasses import dataclass, field from datetime import datetime, timezone from pathlib import Path from typing import List, Set, Tuple #
