Risk explanation
The Claude plugin path installs a local skill and SessionStart hook, so inspect that behavior before using it in a shared agent environment; If downloads are enabled it can still pull large weights from Hugging Face, so set storage expectations before pointing agents at it; Auto-discovery across mounted drives is convenient but can mask where a model actually came from, so verify the resolved path in workflows that require strict provenance.
