The skill security scanner blocked legitimate community skills on three
intrinsic false-positive patterns:
- read_secrets_file matched `cat > file.env <<` heredocs (writing the
user's own keys into their own local .env), not just `cat file.env`
reads. Exclude output redirections.
- allowed-tools frontmatter is REQUIRED by the agent-skill spec; every
compliant skill declares it. Drop from HIGH privilege_escalation to a
LOW informational finding so it no longer drives the verdict.
- python_os_environ flagged `os.environ.get("CONFIG_VAR")` config reads
as HIGH exfiltration. Exempt non-secret `.get()` reads; add a dedicated
CRITICAL python_environ_get_secret pattern so secret-named reads
(OPENAI_API_KEY etc.) are still caught.
Also: scan_skill() now honors a skill-provided .skillignore / .clawhubignore
(gitignore-style) so dev/docs artifacts shipped in a skill root are excluded
from both structural checks and pattern scanning. SKILL.md is never ignorable.
80 tests pass (64 existing + 16 new).
