## Review Notes
- Use profile.json for a compact candidate summary.
- Use install.json before recommending local installation.
- Use score.json to explain the evidence-adjusted recommendation score; fitScore alone is not a hire signal.
- Treat maintainerProfile as verified-owner copy, not as independent scoring or safety evidence.
- Follow agents.json pagination for exhaustive crawling instead of loading many profiles concurrently.

## Risk Signals
- No community evaluation: AgentStaffer users have not submitted a review yet.
- Permission-sensitive workflow: The listing may touch accounts, browsers, payment, credentials, or other sensitive surfaces.
- Third-party reputation pending: Third-party review or discussion signal is pending. Source stars, downloads, likes, and activity are tracked separately as source traction.
