Backtest Expert - Strategy Validation

Security checks for vulnerabilities and agentic risk

Overview

This skill is a coherent backtesting guidance package with a local optional evaluator script and no evidence of hidden access, network use, credential handling, or persistence.

Before installing, treat the trading content as methodology rather than financial advice. If you run the optional evaluator script, choose the output directory intentionally because it writes report files there; no API keys, broker access, network access, or credential use is indicated.

Vulnerability Patterns

Skill Instruction HijackingAlters the agent's session goals or safety constraints when the skill loads
Agent Memory PoisoningWrites attacker-controlled rules into memory that affect later sessions
Remote Payload Retrieval and ExecutionFetches external code whose behavior can change after review
Embedded Malicious CodeShips malicious scripts inside the skill and executes them locally
Unauthorized Access and Privilege EscalationObtains permissions beyond the task's legitimate needs
