Troubleshooting
How to fix Windows Defender flagging 'Backdoor:PHP/Perhetshell.A!dha' after cloning claude-skill-registry?

The Severe alert is triggered by offensive-sqli/SKILL.md, an offensive SQL-injection skill auto-ingested into the registry whose exploit payloads match Defender's Backdoor:PHP/Perhetshell.A!dha signature. Workarounds: 1) If you don't need offensive security tooling, let Defender quarantine the file or manually delete the offensive-sqli skill folder from your local clone, then run a quick scan to confirm clean. 2) If you intentionally use the skill for authorized penetration testing, add a targeted exclusion via elevated PowerShell: Add-MpPreference -ExclusionPath "<clone-path>\skills\offensive-sqli" — only exclude paths you fully trust, as the file contains live exploit code. 3) Watch registry issue #27 (majiayu000/claude-skill-registry) and re-pull once the maintainer removes or sanitizes the flagged skill, then remove any manual exclusion.
