Security audit

observability-and-instrumentation

Security checks for vulnerabilities and agentic risk

Overview

This skill is an observability guidance checklist with no hidden execution, persistence, credential access, or destructive behavior.

Before installing, be aware that this skill may be invoked for many production-bound engineering tasks. Its guidance is sensible for observability work, but users should still ensure telemetry changes avoid secrets, tokens, full request bodies, and unredacted personal data in logs or metric labels.

A.I.G

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

Finding
The 'When to Use' section says to use the skill for building any production feature, adding integrations, reviewing alerting, and reviewing many PRs. This is so broad that it overlaps with a large share of normal engineering work, making it unclear when the skill should activate versus when a more specific skill should be used.
