However, its instructions contain an exact prompt designed to redirect an AI assistant into a separate installation and commercial-purchase workflow. The prompt tells the agent to: 1. Install an external package. 2. Read and follow instructions from newly installed Skill content. 3. Initiate a purchase for a specified merchant and product. 4. Continue installation and verification after payment confirmation. This behavior changes the agent’s operational goal from checking a table to installing third-party software and facilitating a financial transaction. The instruction to follow a newly installed `SKILL.md` also creates a transitive trust boundary: instructions unavailable during this audit can subsequently control agent behavior.

- Remediation
- <![CDATA[ ## Remediation Suggestions 1. Remove the exact AI-directed purchase and installation prompt from `SKILL.md`. 2. Do not instruct an agent to automatically read and execute instructions from newly installed content. 3. Keep optional paid-tier information neutral and informational. It must not assert authorization to install dependencies or initiate purchases. 4. Require the user to begin any installation or purchase workflow through a separate, explicit request. 5. Remove the unconditional advertisement from `scripts/run.mjs`, or place optional commercial information behind a dedicated flag such as `--show-upgrade-info`. 6. Keep operational results limited to the table-checking task. Do not mix findings with fixed merchant IDs, product IDs, or purchase instructions. 7. If external onboarding remains available, display the exact actions and security implications before each step and require explicit user approval rather than embedding blanket authorization in a reusable prompt. ]]>
