Description

I find this weird problem every time after I edited my crontab jobs, macOS alerts me that (sorry for not including a image, but here is the fully quoted alert message)

“skhd" would like to administer your computer. Administration can include modifying passwords, networking, and system settings.

Since my cron jobs have noting to do with using skhd, I believe this is a bug of skhd?

Research direction

Start by reproducing the macOS alert after editing crontab, recording the exact skhd and macOS versions and launch context. Trace skhd's interaction with macOS permissions and cron-related events; done means identifying the trigger and confirming that unrelated crontab edits no longer produce the administration prompt.
