markdown.new

Security checks across malware telemetry and agentic risk

Overview

This skill is a simple helper for turning public web pages into Markdown through markdown.new, but users should avoid it for private or token-bearing links.

Use this skill for public documentation, READMEs, blog posts, changelogs, and similar pages. Do not use it with private intranet URLs, authenticated pages, signed links, or URLs containing tokens, secrets, or confidential query parameters unless you are comfortable sending that URL and reachable content to markdown.new.

Missing User Warnings

Finding
The skill instructs the agent to send arbitrary target URLs to the third-party service markdown.new by embedding them in a request URL, but it provides no warning, consent check, or restriction for sensitive destinations. This can leak private, internal, signed, or user-specific URLs to an external service and may also cause unintended access attempts against internal resources through that service.
