Additional Notes

Talamus is an Apache-2.0, local-first memory system for AI agents: https://github.com/ampres-ai/talamus

Installing this skill does not install or execute Talamus. If the CLI is absent during use, the skill explains the change and asks for user approval before choosing one isolated installer. LLM-backed operations, memory writes, repository ingestion, and session capture are also consent-gated.

Local verification on an LF checkout:

• Official structure validator: passed
• Official security report: PASS, 0 failures, 0 warnings

DCO sign-off is now fixed and passing.

The two repository workflows fail before reading or validating the submitted skill: actions/checkout refuses the fork checkout from pull_request_target at the 'Checkout PR head into ./pr (untrusted)' step. The failing runs are:

• Validate Skills: https://github.com/block/agent-skills/actions/runs/29828148825
• Skills Security Scan: https://github.com/block/agent-skills/actions/runs/29828148853

For clarity, I also validated the exact signed-off commit in a clean LF worktree using the repository's trusted scripts:

• structure validator: PASSED (all 8 skill directories)
• security report for talamus-memory: PASS, 0 failures, 0 warnings

Because checkout fails before the changed directory is inspected, this looks like a base-workflow issue affecting fork submissions rather than a finding in this PR.
