Security audit

Psyke SEO & GEO Audit

Security checks for vulnerabilities and agentic risk

Overview

The skill is coherent for a branded SEO/GEO audit, but it directs public publishing of client audit material without a clear consent or review gate.

Install only if you are comfortable with a Psyke-branded workflow that may crawl websites, use external AI/search tools, create a public GitHub repository, and deploy the audit publicly to Vercel. Before use, require explicit client approval, review staged files, prefer private/access-controlled publishing, and pin deployment tooling.

Missing User Warnings

High
Category
Not specified by scanner
Confidence
98% confidence
Finding

The skill directs public GitHub publication and Vercel deployment without an explicit warning or consent step, which is especially dangerous because the generated artifact may include client names, URLs, audit findings, and competitive analysis. In this business context, that can leak sensitive commercial information and reputationally damaging security or SEO weaknesses.

Vague Triggers

Medium
Category
Not specified by scanner
Confidence
97% confidence
Finding

The trigger phrases are broad enough to match routine requests like 'run an audit' or 'audit this site', increasing the chance that the skill activates unintentionally. Because the skill performs external fetching, benchmarking, and publication steps, accidental invocation can lead to unapproved data collection and disclosure.

Context-Inappropriate Capability

Medium
Category
Not specified by scanner
Confidence
95% confidence
Finding

The skill instructs creating a public GitHub repository for each audit, which can expose client audit content, site findings, competitor data, and potentially sensitive business intelligence to the public internet. This exceeds the core task of generating an audit deck and creates an unnecessary data disclosure path.

Finding

npx commands without a version suffix (e.g. @1.0.0) create a rug-pull risk if the upstream server is compromised and publishes a malicious update.

Context-Inappropriate Capability

Medium
Category
Not specified by scanner
Confidence
94% confidence
Finding

Deploying the generated audit to Vercel publishes client-facing content to an external service, potentially making confidential findings accessible via a public URL. In the context of SEO/GEO audits, the deck may contain weaknesses, benchmarks, and internal recommendations that should not be exposed without informed consent.

Natural-Language Policy Violations

Medium
Category
Not specified by scanner
Confidence
94% confidence
Finding

The instructions require including queries with "Australia" and Australia-specific location examples, which imposes a locale constraint in the workflow. The document does not offer a user choice of region or explain that the framework is intended only for Australian clients, so this is a natural-language locale policy issue.
