⚠ This skill is no longer available upstream. Our re-check on Aug 10, 2026 couldn't find it any more (repo unreachable/deleted). The test below is what we measured on Jul 20, 2026 and we're leaving it up as a record — but there is nothing left to install, so we've removed the command.
Fed it a pig-butchering opener ('met you in a wealth group, my uncle does forex in Singapore, try a small amount you can withdraw anytime'): no-skill Claude just warned 'this might be a scam, be careful,' while the skill named 杀猪盘, placed it at stage 2 (introduction), predicted the exact next step — a small real payout as bait before the big ask — and flagged the greed/authority/herd hooks with a call-96110 action. Whole repo is the skill; the two bundled Python tools only do local file management, no network calls.
Scored on four weighted criteria — install, triggering, output vs. baseline, docs. How scoring works
- Installs cleanly 5/5
- Triggers reliably 5/5
- Output vs. baseline 8/10
- Docs & honesty 5/5
What Scammer.skill does
An anti-fraud analyst skill that reads a pasted message or screenshot, matches it against a library of scam scripts (pig-butchering, fake law-enforcement, refund fraud, etc.), and returns the scam type, the exact stage it is at, the predicted next move, and the psychological hooks in play. Triggers on phrasings like 'is this a scam', 'check this message for me', or a directly pasted suspicious chat. Also supports adding and versioning your own scam samples.
