Should I stop and ask the user?
Security checks for vulnerabilities and agentic risk
Overview
This skill is a narrow decision aid for repeated task failures and its plugin use is disclosed and aligned with that purpose.
Before installing, understand that this skill works best with the ClawPhylax plugin, which the artifact describes as keeping a local ledger of requests and tool outcomes. That recordkeeping is expected for the skill's purpose, and there is no inspected evidence of hidden network transfer or destructive behavior in this skill package.
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
- 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
- Excessive AgencyUnrestricted Tool Access, Autonomous Decision Making, Scope Creep
