skill-audit
ยท v1.0.0
Audit locally installed agent skills for security/policy issues using the SkillLens CLI (`skilllens scan`, `skilllens config`). Use when asked to scan a skills directory (Codex/Claude) and produce a risk-focused audit report based on each skill's `SKILL.md` and bundled resources.
