Participation Warmup Planner

Security checks for vulnerabilities and agentic risk

Overview

This skill is a planning-only community participation workflow with disclosed memory writes and no evidence of hidden execution or automation.

Before installing, be aware that the skill can help store planning notes and proposed channel facts in your memory workspace after confirmation. Review any user exports or screenshots you provide, because they may contain private account or community information, but the artifact does not instruct the agent to automate posts, scrape closed platforms, or bypass user approval.

Vulnerability Patterns
  • Skill Instruction HijackingAlters the agent's session goals or safety constraints when the skill loads
  • Agent Memory PoisoningWrites attacker-controlled rules into memory that affect later sessions
  • Remote Payload Retrieval and ExecutionFetches external code whose behavior can change after review
  • Embedded Malicious CodeShips malicious scripts inside the skill and executes them locally
  • Unauthorized Access and Privilege EscalationObtains permissions beyond the task's legitimate needs
Vulnerability Patterns
  • Excessive AgencyUnrestricted Tool Access, Autonomous Decision Making, Scope Creep
  • Prompt InjectionInstruction Override, Hidden Instructions, Exfiltration Commands
  • Data ExfiltrationExternal Transmission, Env Variable Harvesting, File System Enumeration
  • Privilege EscalationExcessive Permissions, Sudo/Root Execution, Credential Access
  • Supply ChainUnpinned Dependencies, External Script Fetching, Obfuscated Code

Autonomous Decision Making

Excessive Agency

75% confidence
Finding

Skill enables autonomous high-impact decisions without human-in-the-loop verification. Critical operations (destructive commands, financial transactions, data deletion) should require explicit user confirmation.

## Save Results

After delivering the plan, ask: "Save these results for future sessions?" On confirmation, save to `memory/social/participation-warmup-planner/YYYY-MM-DD-<topic>.md` — see [Skill Contract](../../../references/skill-contract.md) §Save Results Template. Registry-grade facts (graduation criteria, cadence commitments, channel states) go only to `memory/events/channels.ndjson` via an authorized `operation: propose` request to `registry-events.py` — [channel-registry](../../../protocol/channel-registry/SKILL.md) is the sole writer of `memory/channels/`. Do not write memory without asking.
