privacy-mask
authentic
Mask, redact, anonymize and censor sensitive information (PII) in screenshots and images — phone numbers, emails, IDs, API keys, crypto wallets, credit cards, passwords, and more.
When to use
- User sends a screenshot or image file (`.png`, `.jpg`, `.jpeg`, `.bmp`, `.tiff`) that may contain private data
- User mentions privacy, masking, redacting, or anonymizing
- You need to analyze an image but want to redact sensitive info first
- IF the user shares a screenshot for debugging, THEN run `privacy-mask mask <path> --dry-run` first to check for PII
- IF detections are found, THEN mask the image before proceeding with analysis
When not to use
- Use this skill only when the task clearly matches its upstream source and local project context.
- Verify commands, generated code, dependencies, credentials, and external service behavior before applying changes.
- Do not treat examples as a substitute for environment-specific tests, security review, or user approval for destructive or costly actions.
