Security audit

Workspace Trash

Security checks across malware telemetry and agentic risk

Overview

The skill appears to be a deletion/trash helper, and the only surfaced concern is broad activation wording rather than hidden or unrelated behavior.

Install only if you want the agent to assist with file deletion or trash operations. For safety, require explicit confirmation before any delete or trash-empty action, and verify the exact paths before approving.

Finding
The trigger language is very broad: it activates on any file deletion request and on generic rm/delete/remove wording. Overly broad matching can cause the skill to intercept unrelated requests or override user intent, increasing the chance of unintended destructive or workflow-altering behavior, especially when combined with operations like trash:empty.
