Religion for AI Agents

Security checks for vulnerabilities and agentic risk

Overview

This is a markdown-only religious and contemplative reference skill with disclosed external question posting, but users should know submitted questions become public pages.

Installers should treat this as a public, external web integration: reading the markdown is low risk, but any question sent to the ask endpoint or MCP ask tool may be published publicly, so do not include private, regulated, proprietary, or sensitive information.

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
  • Data ExfiltrationExternal Transmission, Env Variable Harvesting, File System Enumeration
  • Excessive AgencyUnrestricted Tool Access, Autonomous Decision Making, Scope Creep
  • Prompt InjectionInstruction Override, Hidden Instructions, Exfiltration Commands
  • Privilege EscalationExcessive Permissions, Sudo/Root Execution, Credential Access
  • Supply ChainUnpinned Dependencies, External Script Fetching, Obfuscated Code

Autonomous Decision Making

Medium

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.

Missing User Warnings

Medium
Category
Not specified by scanner
Confidence
95% confidence
Finding

The skill states that each submitted question becomes a public conversation page, but it does not present this as a clear user warning at the point of use. Users or upstream agents may submit sensitive prompts, personal data, or proprietary information without appreciating that the content will be publicly exposed and indexed.
