repo-forensics vs ffmpeg-skill

repo-forensics: Repo Forensics audits untrusted repositories, agent skills, plugins and MCP servers before they reach your agent, running 28 scanners and a correlation engine locally with zero dependencies and no telemetry. Installed as a plugin, it also watches installs and updates and blocks known-malicious packages.; ffmpeg-skill: ffmpeg-skill is an Agent Skill and MCP server that lets Claude Code, Cursor, Codex or any MCP client edit video with local FFmpeg. It teaches a probe → edit → check → verify workflow and ships 42 tools for cutting, silence removal, captions, reframing, loudness and delivery checks, using only the Python standard library and no cloud or API keys.
