Hey Product Hunt 👋
I’m launching AgentGuard — a free scanner for AI agent Skills (SKILL.md).
As more people install Skills into coding agents, it’s hard to know what those Skills can actually do: shell access, network calls, secret access, vague instructions, etc.
AgentGuard lets you:
1. Paste a SKILL.md
2. Run security + quality analysis
3. Get a Trust Report with scores, capabilities, findings, and a verdict
It’s free, no account required. Automated analysis can’t guarantee absolute safety — it helps you make a more informed install decision.
I’d love feedback on:
– Is the Trust Report clear enough?
– What’s missing for your Skill-review workflow?
– Would GitHub URL / CLI scanning be useful next?
Thanks for checking it out.
The scary one isn't the malicious skill, it's a well meaning one carrying shell access it never needed for the job it does. That's the thing I can't eyeball at volume.
since a SKILL.md is just instructions, not code, the risky part is usually what it tells the agent to do once it already has tool access, not anything visible in a static read of the markdown. a skill can look completely clean and still cause damage if it's combined with a shell or file-write tool that only shows up at runtime. does the trust report account for what other tools/permissions the agent already has, or is the score based purely on the skill text in isolation
