skills.sh installs: 812,415 ([source](https://skills.sh/mattpocock/skills/codebase-design), 2026-10-19). Not our download count.

Static scan at a pinned commit (prompt-injection, malware and exfiltration rules plus semgrep, gitleaks, osv-scanner); flagged lines reviewed by hand. A scan lowers risk; it doesn't prove safety.
