πŸ’‘ Examples

# Install a skill (stages, scans, auto-promotes if clean)
bash {baseDir}/scripts/skill-sandbox.sh 
Install a specific version

bash {baseDir}/scripts/skill-sandbox.sh  --version 1.2.0
Force install (bypass VirusTotal flags from clawhub)

bash {baseDir}/scripts/skill-sandbox.sh  --force
Re-scan a staged skill

bash {baseDir}/scripts/skill-sandbox.sh  --scan-only
Promote a quarantined skill after manual review

bash {baseDir}/scripts/skill-sandbox.sh  --promote
List all quarantined skills

bash {baseDir}/scripts/skill-sandbox.sh --list-staged

πŸ“‹ Tips & Best Practices

  • The _staging/ directory should be added to .gitignore
  • Clean skills auto-promote β€” no manual step needed for safe installs
  • The script returns exit codes: 0 (pass/warn), 2 (fail) for CI integration
  • All scan patterns are static regex β€” no network calls, no external dependencies
