detecting-typosquatting-packages
77 / 100 · Review before installing
Check before installing. Some of what it can do is expected: a coding skill usually runs build and test commands.
Flag misspelled, brandjacked, and typosquatted package names across npm, PyPI, and crates.io before installation using edit-distance, keyboard-proximity, and known-target corpus matching with typomania, OSSGadget, and pypi-scan.

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-typosquatting-packages' ~/.claude/skills/'detecting-typosquatting-packages' (other agents: ~/.cursor/skills, ~/.copilot/skills, ~/.gemini/skills, ~/.gemini/config/skills, ~/.config/opencode/skills). Or install through the finder skill, which does both.
