Arabic English Explainer Skill

Security checks for vulnerabilities and agentic risk

Overview

This is a straightforward Arabic/English writing helper with no code execution, persistence, credential handling, or hidden data access.

Install this if you want Arabic-first or Arabic/English educational and UI-writing assistance. Review outputs for tone, dialect, and domain accuracy, especially for legal, medical, financial, religious, or cybersecurity content, but the package itself does not show security-sensitive behavior.

Natural-Language Policy Violations

Medium
Category
Not specified by scanner
Confidence
81% confidence
Finding

The instruction to 'Create the Arabic explanation first, then optional English support' sets a default language ordering that may override user language preference. Because the skill handles Arabic, English, or bilingual content, this default could conflict with a policy expectation not to force a specific language without opt-in.

Vague Triggers

Confidence
85% confidence
Finding

The 'When to use' section includes generic phrases like 'Make Arabic lessons' and 'Translate but make it natural,' which are broad enough to match many ordinary user requests outside a clearly bounded skill context. The file does not provide exclusion conditions or negative examples to clarify when the skill should not activate.

Natural-Language Policy Violations

Low
Category
Not specified by scanner
Confidence
82% confidence
Finding

This manifest describes the skill as an 'Arabic English Explainer Skill' in the name, tags, and category, but provides no indication that users can choose another language or explicitly opt into this locale constraint. Under the natural-language policy rule, forcing or implying a specific language without user choice can be a policy concern unless clearly justified.
