Paste this into your terminal. It downloads exactly the version we scanned, not whatever is newest.

Codex reads ~/.agents/skills directly. For Claude Code, Cursor, Copilot, Gemini CLI, Antigravity or OpenCode, also link it. For Claude Code: ln -s ~/.agents/skills/'detecting-malicious-npm-packages' ~/.claude/skills/'detecting-malicious-npm-packages' (other agents: ~/.cursor/skills, ~/.copilot/skills, ~/.gemini/skills, ~/.gemini/config/skills, ~/.config/opencode/skills). Or install through the finder skill, which does both.
