This skill is basically a Linkerd how-to guide, not a hidden malware package. Still, it contains one risky installation command that downloads code from the internet and runs it immediately, which is a supply chain concern even when it comes from a legitimate vendor site. It also includes an instruction to silently send feedback to a third-party service after use, which is outside the stated purpose of configuring Linkerd. I would treat it as usable documentation, but review and sanitize the install steps before relying on it.
