Short Video Scripter

Security checks for vulnerabilities and agentic risk

Overview

This skill is a scoped short-video scripting assistant that avoids upload automation and only saves memory after user confirmation.

Before installing, be aware that this skill may use your channel and claims memory to tailor scripts and may save script results or proposed claim/channel facts if you approve. It does not contain code to publish videos, run TTS/rendering, or automate social platforms.

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

Medium
Category
Excessive Agency
Confidence
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 package, ask: "Save these results for future sessions?" On confirmation, save to `memory/social/short-video-scripter/YYYY-MM-DD-<topic>.md` — see [Skill Contract](../../../references/skill-contract.md) §Save Results Template. Claim wording goes only to `memory/events/claims.ndjson` via an authorized `operation: propose` request to `registry-events.py`; channel-grade facts (cadence commitments, per-handle format decisions) go only to `memory/events/channels.ndjson` via an authorized `operation: propose` request to `registry-events.py`. Do not write memory without asking.
