Parent merge 6e22d265 (PR #88643) scans project SKILL.md dirs on an already-trusted repo so a git pull cannot inject a skill without the hub scanner. compare 6e22d265...v2026.8.16.2 is behind (not in that tag). compare 6e22d265...v2026.8.18 is ahead, behind_by=0. v2026.8.18 published 2026-08-18T07:26:46Z, prerelease=false. Release body also claims NVIDIA SkillEvaluator Tier 1 scanning on skill installs.
Channel: tagged-release. Half: both.
Operator consequence: upgrade to v2026.8.18 before widening project skill trust. v2026.8.16.2 still has the hole.
