Security checks across malware telemetry and agentic risk

Overview

This skill is a disclosed static security-audit helper that clones or reads a chosen target, writes a local report, and cleans up only its temporary clone directories.

Install only if you are comfortable with the skill cloning the GitHub repository you specify, reading the selected local project, and saving a security report on disk. Prefer HTTPS URLs if you do not want SSH credentials involved, approve online vulnerability lookups only when you are willing to share dependency metadata, and do not provide wallet, payment, or unrelated credentials because the artifacts do not justify them.

Category
MCP Least Privilege
Confidence
92% confidence
Finding
The skill declares required binaries but no explicit permissions, while its workflow clearly includes shell command execution, network cloning, filesystem reads, report writing, and cleanup deletion. In an agent environment, this under-declared capability can mislead operators and permission systems about what the skill is actually allowed to do.

Tp4

High
Category
MCP Tool Poisoning
Confidence
89% confidence
Finding
The description emphasizes a static-first audit, but the documented behavior also performs network cloning and local filesystem deletion. While these actions are not inherently malicious, the mismatch reduces transparency and can cause users or policy engines to approve the skill under an incomplete understanding of its operational reach.

Missing User Warnings

Low
Confidence
78% confidence
Finding
The skill writes audit reports to local directories by default, including a fallback under the user's home directory, without a strong up-front warning at the main behavior description. This can create privacy and data-handling surprises, especially if reports include sensitive repository findings or local path information.
