| Bottom line | vibe-check connects to external service APIs; restrict its folder reach, network access, and credentials before installing. | Vibe-Skills (agent skill) requires careful permission scoping — skill credential scope: Orchestration layer may have access to credentials across multiple skills; verify least-privilege isolation between skill contexts. |
