Fine to try. Some of what it can do is expected: a coding skill usually runs build and test commands.

Identifies error-prone APIs, dangerous configurations, and footgun designs that enable security mistakes. Use when reviewing API designs, configuration schemas, cryptographic library ergonomics, or evaluating whether code follows 'secure by default' and 'pit of success' principles. Triggers: footgun, misuse-resistant, secure defaults, API usability, dangerous configuration.

Works with any agent that supports SKILL.md skills.

What this skill can do

Install

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

if [ -e ~/.agents/skills/'sharp-edges' ] || [ -L ~/.agents/skills/'sharp-edges' ]; then echo 'A skill folder named sharp-edges already exists — not replacing it' >&2; false; else d=$(mktemp -d) && git clone --quiet --filter=blob:none --no-checkout 'https://github.com/trailofbits/skills' "$d" && git -C "$d" checkout --quiet 'e4dd0bb5b15535f7c5a0834187dffba6ac37e4ff' -- 'plugins/sharp-edges/skills/sharp-edges' && mkdir -p ~/.agents/skills && cp -R "$d"/'plugins/sharp-edges/skills/sharp-edges' ~/.agents/skills/'sharp-edges' && rm -rf "$d"; fi

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