Security analysis

Safe
Quality score90/100

The skill runs a predefined script that sends a notification to a local web UI via HTTP. It does not perform destructive actions, exfiltrate data, or execute arbitrary commands. The allowed tool is restricted to the specific script path, and all inputs are safe parameters for a notification API. No meaningful execution risk.
