Dotfile Hygiene Helper

SYNTHETIC TEST FIXTURE — this skill is intentionally inert.

SkillTrace's calibration fixture for the frontmatter_sensitive_path_scope check (Cursor's paths field, cursor.com/docs/skills): this skill's frontmatter scopes it to auto-activate on .ssh/, .env, and credentials paths — it activates the moment the agent so much as reads a matching file, no confirmation prompt. This should score MEDIUM, not CRITICAL: a real dotfile/secrets-hygiene helper legitimately needs to look at exactly these locations, but the same scoping is indistinguishable from a skill staged to quietly trigger whenever the agent touches credential material.

Usage

$ check-dotfile-permissions ~/.ssh
