 ### Added
 
+- Rule `SKILL-SH-010` (critical, code): flags SSH key planting via
+  `authorized_keys` or shell redirects into `~/.ssh/`.
 - Test coverage for rejecting invalid `--fail-on` severity values at the CLI.
 - **SKILL-SEC-006**: flag TLS verification disabling (`NODE_TLS_REJECT_UNAUTHORIZED=0`,
   `curl -k` / `--insecure`, `wget --no-check-certificate`, `verify=False`,
