Security checks across malware telemetry and agentic risk

Overview

This is a local chemistry analysis toolkit that can create molecule and image output files, but its behavior is disclosed and aligned with its purpose.

Install dependencies from trusted sources in an isolated Python environment. Use explicit project-local output paths, and avoid running the scripts with elevated privileges or pointing outputs at sensitive directories.

Finding
The skill documentation describes multiple scripts that write files such as SDF, PDB, PNG, and arbitrary output paths via flags like --output and output_dir, but the skill declares no corresponding permissions. Undeclared file-write capability is a real security issue because downstream systems may execute the skill under a looser trust model than its actual behavior warrants, enabling unexpected filesystem modification or artifact creation.
