Synthetic Bio Circuit Designer

Security checks for vulnerabilities and agentic risk

Overview

This skill is a small local Python tool that prints conceptual synthetic-biology circuit descriptions, but users should treat the output as unvalidated educational material.

Install only if you need conceptual examples of synthetic-biology circuits. Do not treat its output as experimentally validated, safe to build, or sufficient for real biological work without qualified review and applicable safety/compliance controls.

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

Missing User Warnings

Medium

Confidence: 94% confidence
Finding: This skill generates synthetic biology circuit designs without any safety warning, limitation disclosure, or indication that outputs are conceptual only and not suitable for direct experimental use. In a bio-design context, omission of such guardrails can enable unsafe interpretation of the output as actionable wet-lab guidance, increasing the risk of misuse or accidental harm.
