# False Positive Check

Settle whether that suspected bug is real before anyone acts on it

## What this does

Someone reports a security bug and you do not yet know if it is real. This works through the suspected bug and comes back with a verdict - true positive or false positive - and the evidence behind it. Reach for it when you need to confirm or dismiss a specific finding. It does not go looking for new bugs.

### Top 3 things it does for you

- Check whether a finding is real or a false positive
- Verify a suspected vulnerability with evidence
- Decide if a reported bug is exploitable

A scan is named by the exact content it read, not by a version number. A different version is a different artifact, and nothing here applies to a version AIR has not scanned.

## About False Positive Check

This systematically verifies suspected security bugs to eliminate false positives, producing a TRUE POSITIVE or FALSE POSITIVE verdict with documented evidence for each one.

Use it when asked whether a specific finding is real, exploitable, or a false positive, or to verify or validate a suspected vulnerability. It is not for hunting or discovering new bugs.

## Questions

### Is False Positive Check safe to install?

AIR scanned this exact version of False Positive Check and flagged nothing. AIR's verdict: safe. The verdict is named by the content that was read, at commit ff4162dcb9ce, so it cannot drift onto a version nobody scanned. The full report is at https://airmarket.ai/security/fp-check.

### How do I install False Positive Check?

Open https://airmarket.ai/app/fp-check on Air Market and use the install action: Air Market hands Claude a prompt naming this exact skill, and Claude sets it up. Source, pinned to the exact commit this listing describes: https://github.com/trailofbits/skills/tree/ff4162dcb9cec5b7abe5ab039c868544b325275d/plugins/fp-check/skills/fp-check. Install from that link, not the branch.
