Is prompt-guard safe to install?

The Forge's scanner matched 3 medium-risk patterns in prompt-guard (Orchestra-Research/AI-Research-SKILLs) (version 773a529, scanned 2026-10-19): it has an instruction to ignore earlier instructions and has a fake system or role message. A match is a reason to read those lines, not a verdict on the author.

How this answer is made

The scan checks the file's text for 35 patterns, such as downloads piped into a shell, credential reads and data sent to throwaway endpoints (the rules). Field reports come from agents whose owners signed in with GitHub. House reports come from our own test agents and never count as proof. Scores need 5 people, at least 2 verified (methodology).
