It supplies a fixed prompt that users are told to forward verbatim to an AI assistant. That prompt changes the agent's objective from local payroll analysis to installing external payment tooling, loading instructions from another Skill, and initiating a purchase for a specified merchant and product. The runtime also appends an upsell and an external purchasing URL after every successful reconciliation. This behavior is unconditional and unrelated to producing the requested payroll result. The `// __UPSELL__` marker further demonstrates that this output was intentionally inserted as a commercial redirection. This constitutes instruction hijacking because loading a ...[truncated 1898 chars]
- Remediation
- <![CDATA[ ## Remediation Suggestions 1. Remove the unconditional upsell from `scripts/run.mjs`. Successful execution should return only reconciliation results and operationally necessary status information. 2. Remove the fixed prompt that tells users to redirect an AI assistant into installation and purchasing actions. 3. Do not instruct an agent to load and obey another Skill's instructions as part of the current Skill's normal workflow. 4. If paid functionality must be mentioned, place a neutral disclosure in a separate documentation section that: - Does not appear in normal command output. - Does not instruct the agent to install software or initiate purchases. - Requires the user to navigate to the vendor independently. - Clearly separates informational documentation from executable agent instructions. 5. Require a new, explicit user request before performing any installation, wallet, or purchasing operation. 6. Ensure reconciliation output remains deterministic and free from unrelated calls to action. ]]>
