SkillsSafe — AI Skill Security Scanner

Free, no-signup security scanner for AI agent skills. Scan any SKILL.md, MCP config, or system_prompt for threats before installing.

🌐 skillssafe.com


What Is SkillsSafe?

As AI agents become more powerful, malicious skills can steal credentials, exfiltrate data, or hijack your agent's behavior. SkillsSafe scans skill files before you install them — the same way an antivirus scans software before you run it.

Supported platforms: OpenClaw · Claude Code · Cursor · Codex · any MCP-compatible agent


Features

🔍 Security Scanner

Paste content, enter a URL, or upload a file to scan for:

ThreatDescription
Credential TheftAttempts to access API keys, tokens, or passwords
Data ExfiltrationSkills that send your data to external servers
Prompt InjectionHidden instructions that hijack agent behavior
Shell InjectionReverse shell or arbitrary command execution
Zero-Width CharactersInvisible Unicode characters hiding malicious instructions
Scope CreepSkills requesting permissions beyond their stated purpose
Memory PoisoningAttempts to corrupt agent memory or context
Privacy RiskUnnecessary access to personal or sensitive data

Each scan returns a risk score, severity rating (SAFE / CAUTION / DANGER / CRITICAL), and a shareable report link.

👁️ Zero-Width Character Detector

Visualize invisible Unicode characters (U+200B, U+200C, U+200D, U+FEFF, etc.) hidden inside text. Attackers embed these to create prompts that look safe to humans but carry hidden instructions for AI agents.

🔌 MCP Server Integration

Native Model Context Protocol support — let your agent automatically check skill safety before installation. No API key required.
