model-update

80 / 100 · Low risk

Fine to try. Some of what it can do is expected: a security skill usually runs scanners and checks websites.

By apache/magpie (GitHub) · security · 146 stars · scanned at commit 8d24b52

Refresh a published security model from the project's decision history (tracker dispositions, advisories, canned responses). Proposes new known-non-finding entries (§1.15) and a model-gap list, regression-checked against past valid reports. Read-only on the tracker.

Works with any agent that supports SKILL.md skills.

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