Judgement
Precise triggering, CLI commands, JSON schema and exact confidence values. Specific tool not known to Claude. Shortcomings: no installation step, persistent watcher, Codex sandbox exit instructions.
reservations
- The SKILL.md assumes the visual-brief CLI is installed, without giving the install command (uv tool install visual-brief appears only in the README).
- The frontend (about sixty TypeScript/TSX files) is not useful to the skill and was not reviewed; the embedded SolidJS bundle is not verified.
- The skill depends on a third-party tool that is expected to evolve; no version or date is given.

Alerts
4 alerts, by category
Execution
- high risk
The skill asks for approval to run the watcher outside the Codex sandbox, which widens the agent's permissions.
Network
- high risk
The HTTP daemon runs on localhost on a fixed port; a page open in the browser can feed the message queue.
Instruction
- medium risk
The persistent watcher relays to the agent messages typed in the local page; this untrusted text may carry a prompt injection, even if the skill asks to treat it as data.
Static scan
- info risk
bundled scripts, not run by the SKILL.md

Original description
Publish substantial implementation, investigation, review, or design reports on a local structured HTML page. Use after meaningful work that benefits from layered detail, or when the human explicitly asks for a visual brief. Skip trivial updates, quick answers, tiny fixes, and routine status message…
