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.

## Questions

### Is Python Observability safe to install?

AIR scanned this exact version of Python Observability and recorded 0 findings and 2 flagged items. AIR's verdict: safe. The verdict is named by the content that was read, at commit be57c0b2e3c0, so it cannot drift onto a version nobody scanned. The full report is at https://airmarket.ai/security/python-observability.

### How do I install Python Observability?

Open https://airmarket.ai/app/python-observability 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/wshobson/agents/tree/be57c0b2e3c05c528ca6132b87410b385718775f/plugins/python-development/skills/python-observability. Install from that link, not the branch.
