-list) **and** the analyzer detects code capabilities in executable files.
+**Triggers when:** The manifest declares no tool scope -- no `permissions`
+field (or an empty list) **and** no `allowed-tools` frontmatter -- and the
+analyzer detects code capabilities in executable files.
 
 **Why it matters:** Without declared permissions, the skill's intent is
 completely opaque. Users and agents cannot evaluate whether the skill's access
 level is appropriate. This is less suspicious than LP1 (could be an oversight
 rather than deception) but still a significant transparency gap.

+**Remediation:** Declare the skill's tool scope in the manifest type you are
+authoring. For Claude Code / Agent Skills `SKILL.md`, list the tools the skill
+may invoke in the `allowed-tools` frontmatter field (`permissions` is not part
+of the SKILL.md schema and is ignored). For MCP server manifests, add a
+`permissions` list naming the required capabilities.
