the skill to browse X

Security checks across malware telemetry and agentic risk

Overview

This skill is a disclosed browser-based helper for using X/Twitter, including account-changing actions, with no hidden code or persistence found.

Install only if you are comfortable letting an agent operate an X/Twitter browser session. Use a separate browser profile if possible, and require explicit approval before every public or account-changing action, including posts, replies, reposts, likes, and follows.

Vague Triggers

Medium
Confidence
87% confidence
Finding
The description is broad enough to activate for many generic social-media requests, including actions with real-world side effects on a user's X account. Because the skill supports both read-only and write operations, loose invocation criteria increase the risk of unintended account actions or over-selection when a safer/read-only skill would suffice.

Missing User Warnings

Medium
Confidence
96% confidence
Finding
The skill documents multiple state-changing actions—like, repost, reply, and follow—without requiring explicit confirmation or user-warning for each operation. In a browser-automation context, this can directly cause unintended social actions from the user's authenticated account, creating reputational, privacy, and operational risk if the assistant misinterprets intent or clicks the wrong control.
