══════════════════════════════════════
GOAL
══════════════════════════════════════
Decide what this is (skill · tool · agent · MCP server · orchestrator · model · library · other), whether it is safe and worth adopting, and if yes: the minimal correct way to put it into MY stack so future sessions know how to use it.

My stack (LifeOS-compatible local agent OS):
- Skills live under ~/.claude/skills/ (use CreateSkill skill before creating/modifying ANY skill — never hand-roll SKILL.md)
- MCP servers / peer tools: configure only after provenance + security pass
- Projects/tools may land under ~/Projects/ or a clearly named path — never overwrite without asking
- Dual memory: curated notes vs verbatim recall — if worth remembering, say where it should be filed
- Prefer reversible, audited installs (git clone to a sandbox dir first; no curl|bash; no sudo unless I approve)

══════════════════════════════════════
PHASE A — IDENTIFY (no downloads yet)
══════════════════════════════════════
1. Name the artifact, license (if known), language/runtime, and intended use in one paragraph.
2. Classify exactly one primary type:
   [ ] LifeOS/Claude skill pack   [ ] MCP server   [ ] Coding agent/harness/CLI
   [ ] Library/SDK                [ ] Model/weights [ ] Orchestrator/workflow
   [ ] Security tool              [ ] Other: ___
3. List dependencies (Node/Python/Rust/Docker/GPU/API keys) and network blast radius (what it phones home to).
4. If multiple URLs, rank which is canonical and which are mirrors/docs/marketing.

══════════════════════════════════════
PHASE B — PROVENANCE (is this the real thing?)
══════════════════════════════════════
1. Resolve the canonical upstream (org/user + repo or package). Prefer official org over random forks.
2. Typosquat / clone checks:
   - Similar names with high stars that are NOT this one
   - Fork that rebrands itself as original
   - Recently created account + sudden stars (bought engagement)
   - README that copies a famous project but different remote
3. Author/reputation: real maintainers? Linked site? History of other repos?
4. Activity: last commit/release, open issues, PR response, abandoned?
5. Stars/forks/watchers in context (not gospel — only a signal).
6. Output: PROVENANCE = PASS | WEAK | FAIL with evidence links.

══════════════════════════════════════
PHASE C — SECURITY (malware / supply chain)
══════════════════════════════════════
Do this BEFORE any install that runs code:
1. Inspect README, install docs, GitHub Actions, package.json/pyproject/Cargo.toml for:
   - postinstall / prepare scripts that fetch remote code
   - obfuscated JS/Python, base64 blobs, eval/exec of network content
   - requests for secrets, SSH keys, wallet files, browser cookies
   - unexpected network endpoints, crypto miners, reverse shells
2. Check advisories: OSV / GitHub Dependabot / known CVE mentions for this package name.
3. Permissions: does it need root, full disk, browser automation, shell, or cloud credentials?
4. Sandbox plan: clone to a temporary directory (e.g. /tmp/laitest-vet-{slug} or ~/Projects/_quarantine/{slug}) with no global npm/pip install until review.
5. For models/weights: source integrity (checksums, HF org trust), license, data exfil risk if run with tools.
6. Output: SECURITY = PASS | CONDITIONAL | FAIL + specific red flags.
   CONDITIONAL requires listing exact mitigations (offline, container, no secrets, etc.).

══════════════════════════════════════
PHASE D — MAINTENANCE & FIT
══════════════════════════════════════
1. Is it maintained enough for production use, or research-only?
2. Does it duplicate something I already have? (search my skills/tools first if accessible)
3. Value vs complexity: is the lesson above real for me, or hype?
4. Output: FIT = ADOPT | WATCH | SKIP with one-sentence why.

══════════════════════════════════════
PHASE E — ONLY IF A–D allow it: SAFE ADOPT PLAN
══════════════════════════════════════
Produce a step-by-step plan I can approve:

1. Exact clone/download command into a quarantine path (no global side effects).
2. What to read first (entry files, SECURITY.md, LICENSE).
3. Minimal smoke test that does NOT need production secrets.
4. How to wire it into LifeOS / my agent of choice, choosing the right shape:
   - Skill → invoke CreateSkill; scaffold; do not hand-write SKILL.md
   - MCP → config snippet + scopes + why those permissions
   - CLI/agent → install location + PATH note + example invocation
   - Library → when to depend vs vendor
   - Model → where weights live, how to call, hardware needs
   - Orchestrator → how it coexists with existing harnesses (do not replace blindly)
5. Rollback: how to fully remove files, configs, services.
6. Memory note (2–4 bullets) for future sessions: what it is, when to use it, gotchas.

Robotics & physical AI is the highest leverage bet in tech right now. Labor gaps in manufacturing, elder care, defense, and space all reduce to the same requirement: bodies that work in the real world, not just software and models. Actuator costs down, sensors up, foundation models let one policy generalize from biped to factory arm.
