Explaining Codebases

Security checks for vulnerabilities and agentic risk

Overview

This skill is a coherent codebase-explainer workflow that reads repository files to produce an interactive guide, with no bundled executable code, persistence, credential handling, or hidden data movement.

Install this when you want the agent to inspect repository code and turn it into an interactive explainer. Avoid using it on repositories containing secrets or private code you do not want analyzed, and watch for implicit activation if your environment auto-loads skills.

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 skill is configured for implicit invocation and its trigger condition is broadly defined around explaining repositories or code, without strong activation boundaries. This can cause the agent to invoke the skill in situations where the user did not clearly request repository analysis, potentially exposing code context more widely or causing unintended processing of sensitive source material.
