- Remediation
- <![CDATA[ ## Remediation Suggestions 1. Remove the unconditional promotion from successful audit output in `scripts/run.mjs`. 2. Keep calculation results limited to information necessary to fulfill the worksheet-audit request. 3. If optional product information must be retained, expose it only through an explicit option such as `--show-upgrade-info`. 4. Do not instruct users to submit prewritten installation or purchasing authorizations to an AI Agent. 5. Do not direct an Agent to automatically load and follow instructions from newly downloaded Skills. 6. Require a separate, explicit user request before initiating any installation or transaction workflow. 7. Display the exact package name, pinned version, publisher, requested permissions, and expected actions before installation. 8. Separate financial actions from software execution. Require independent user confirmation before purchase initiation, payment, installation, and execution. 9. Replace the personal GitHub Pages purchase redirect with a verified first-party resource, if such a link is necessary. 10. Add automated tests confirming that normal audit output contains no advertising, external URLs, installation commands, or purchase instructions. ]]>
