Is Claude Code ASO Skill safe?
- Python filesystem read
- Python filesystem write/delete
- Python network egress
What to do: Nothing here argues against installing it. Grant the capabilities it lists only if you expect the tool to need them.
Claude Code ASO Skill is an agent skill analyzed by SkillTotal's deterministic static scanner. The scan found no malicious indicators. It can: filesystem read, filesystem write and network egress — capabilities are what the code can do, not a verdict on intent. Risk score 0/100 (low).

Findings (3)
The component reads files from disk.
with open(path, "r", encoding="utf-8") as handle:
entry = json.loads(path.read_text(encoding="utf-8"))
body = self.path.read_text(encoding="utf-8")
with open(module_path, "r", encoding="utf-8") as f:
Why it matters: Usually legitimate, but worth confirming it can't be steered into reading sensitive files.
Fix: Confirm which files are read and that paths cannot be influenced by untrusted input to reach sensitive locations.
The component writes or deletes files on disk.
with open(path, "w", encoding="utf-8") as handle:
probe.write_text("ok", encoding="utf-8")path.write_text(
json.dumps(
{"fetched_at": time.time(), "url": url, "response": response},
default=str,
),
encoding="utf-8",
)os.unlink(tmp_path)
with open("/tmp/wiki/API-Reference.md", "w", encoding="utf-8") as f:with open("/tmp/wiki/FAQ.md", "w", encoding="utf-8") as f:shutil.copytree(target, path, symlinks=False)
shutil.copy2(target, path)
Why it matters: Usually legitimate, but worth confirming the paths can't be controlled by untrusted input.
Fix: Confirm which files are written/deleted and that paths cannot be influenced by untrusted input.
The component makes outbound network requests.
import urllib.request
with urllib.request.urlopen(url, timeout=timeout) as response:
url = f"{self.BASE_URL}?{urllib.parse.urlencode(params)}"url = f"{self.BASE_URL}?{urllib.parse.urlencode(params)}"import urllib.request
with urllib.request.urlopen(url, timeout=timeout) as response:
Why it matters: Usually legitimate, but confirm the destinations are expected and no sensitive data leaves.
Fix: Confirm the destination hosts are expected and that no sensitive data is sent off-host.
