testland/libfaketime-c

Wraps libfaketime (github.com/wolfcw/libfaketime), the LD_PRELOAD library that fakes the clock for any binary by intercepting time() / gettimeofday() / clock_gettime(). Covers absolute-date mode (FAKETIME='2026-12-31 23:59:00'), relative offset (FAKETIME='-1d'), advance-rate (FAKETIME='@2026-12-31 23:59:00 x5' for 5x speed), per-process scope via LD_PRELOAD, and FAKETIME_NO_CACHE for high-resolution mocking. Use when you need to fake time, mock the clock, or freeze time for C/C++ or any native binary that needs deterministic wall-clock time.

Medium

W013: Attempt to modify system services in skill instructions.

What this means

The skill prompts the agent to compromise the security or integrity of the user’s machine by modifying system-level services or configurations, such as obtaining elevated privileges, altering startup scripts, or changing system-wide settings.

Why it was flagged

The skill explicitly instructs installing software with sudo (e.g., "sudo apt install", "sudo make install", "sudo apt-get install"), which asks the agent to obtain elevated privileges and modify the host system state.

1 low severity finding. Worth noting, but not necessarily harmful.

W012: Unverifiable external dependency detected (runtime URL that controls agent).

What this means

The skill fetches instructions or code from an external URL at runtime, and the fetched content directly controls the agent’s prompts or executes code. This dynamic dependency allows the external source to modify the agent’s behavior without any changes to the skill itself.

Why it was flagged

The SKILL includes a "From source" install that runs "git clone https://github.com/wolfcw/libfaketime" followed by make && sudo make install, which fetches and executes remote code from https://github.com/wolfcw/libfaketime that the skill depends on.
