Skill Trust Decision

palette

The skill claims to generate color palettes using color theory algorithms, but the actual implementation merely logs command invocations without performing any color processing. Additionally, undeclared commands (stats, search, recent, status) exist in the script.

High Doc Mismatch
Core color theory functionality not implemented

SKILL.md describes generating 'harmonious color palettes using color theory (complementary, analogous, triadic)' and 'create random palettes', but script.sh contains zero color processing code. Commands only append timestamps to log files.

Why this conclusion was reached

1/4 dimensions flagged
Pass
Declared vs actual capability

Declared resources and inferred behavior are broadly aligned.

Review
Hidden execution and egress

2 lower-risk artifacts were extracted and still need context.

Block
Attack chain and severe findings

The report includes 0 attack-chain steps and 1 severe findings.

Review
Dependencies and supply chain hygiene

Dependency information is incomplete, so supply-chain confidence stays limited.

What drove the risk score up

Doc-to-code mismatch on core functionality +25

SKILL.md claims color theory algorithms (complementary, analogous, triadic) that don't exist in script.sh

Undeclared commands in script +10

Commands 'stats', 'search', 'recent', 'status' exist but are not documented in SKILL.md

Duplicate case label +5

'export' appears twice in case statement; first is dead code

Logging user commands without stated purpose +5

Every command invocation is logged to ~/.palette/*.log files with timestamps

Most important evidence

High Doc Mismatch

Core color theory functionality not implemented

SKILL.md describes generating 'harmonious color palettes using color theory (complementary, analogous, triadic)' and 'create random palettes', but script.sh contains zero color processing code. Commands only append timestamps to log files.

scripts/script.sh:54
Either implement the documented color theory algorithms or update SKILL.md to accurately reflect that this skill only logs command invocations.
Medium Doc Mismatch

Undeclared commands present in script

Commands 'stats', 'search', 'recent', and 'status' are implemented in script.sh but not documented in SKILL.md. The 'search' command uses grep on log files.

scripts/script.sh:68
Document all available commands or remove undocumented ones.
Low Doc Mismatch

Export formats not implemented as documented

SKILL.md claims export to 'CSS custom properties, JSON, SVG swatches, Tailwind config, or SCSS variables'. The actual cmd_export only supports json/csv/txt formats and exports log data, not color palettes.

scripts/script.sh:74
Update documentation to match implemented formats or implement claimed formats.
Low code_quality

Duplicate case label for 'export' command

The case statement has 'export)' appearing twice (lines 54 and 74). The first handler just logs; the second does actual work. The first 'export' case is unreachable dead code.

scripts/script.sh:54
Remove the duplicate case label or clarify intent.

Declared capability vs actual capability

Filesystem Pass
Declared WRITE
Inferred WRITE
script.sh:10 mkdir -p ~/.palette; script.sh passes
Shell Pass
Declared NONE
Inferred READ
script.sh:58-65 uses grep on log files; minor
