| Bottom line | This tool helps reduce risk but is not a complete security solution; always review what permissions and data access a skill needs before running it, and assume some threats may not be detected. | paperclip (agent skill) requires careful permission scoping — agent credential scope: Ensure agents only access credentials necessary for their specific tasks; over-permissioned agents increase blast radius if compromised |
