About Skill Scanner - AI skill safety check
Is this AI skill safe to install? Skill Scanner tells you in seconds, before your AI assistant ever uses it.
WHAT IT DOES
Skills add new abilities to AI assistants like Claude, and they get the same access to your computer that you have: your files, your passwords, your network. A bad skill can quietly steal your keys, send your data to strangers, or take over your AI.
Skill Scanner reads a skill before you install it and tells you, in plain words, whether it's safe, what it can do, and what to do next. Open a skill on GitHub, click the Skill Scanner icon, then "Check this skill". That's it. A short guide shows you how the first time.
WHY INSTALL IT
- Catch dangerous skills before they reach your computer. It spots hidden instructions that hijack your AI, password and key theft, code that sends your data away, hidden downloads, crypto-miners, invisible text and more. Tested on more than 4,000 real skills.
- No security knowledge needed. You get a clear answer ("Looks safe", "Check before installing" or "Don't install this skill"), a grade from A to F, and the exact lines behind it.
- Stay safe after you install. Watch the skills you trust and get a warning if one changes in an update.
- Your privacy stays yours. Every check runs inside the extension. No account, no tracking, and we don't run a server. You can see every connection it makes, or turn them all off.
- Free, with no catch. An AI second opinion is optional, with your own AI account. The scanner is complete without it.
- Help others stay safe. Tell a skill's author what was found, in one click.
Available in English and Hebrew.
No automated check can promise 100% safety, so install skills from people you trust. Skill Scanner helps you spot the ones you shouldn't.
