## What it does

This skill guides your coding assistant to reject prompts involving cracked security suites, loaders, or keygens. When asked to help with unauthorized Bitdefender activators, the AI halts the task immediately. It explains concrete hazards like credential theft and ransomware hiding inside fraudulent releases.

The instructions cover common red flags in rogue repositories. This includes artificial star spikes, missing licenses, or projects claiming to be Go code while distributing raw binaries. The assistant also learns to guide users through verifying official HTTPS domains, checking Windows digital signatures, and validating SHA-256 hashes.

Any prompt asking to bypass antivirus licensing gets rejected outright. The agent then directs you to legitimate solutions like Windows Defender or vendor-provided free editions.
