Security audit

Remote Api

Security checks across malware telemetry and agentic risk

Overview

This skill does what it says: it helps expose a local API through a public tunnel, but users should only use it for services meant to be reachable from the internet.

Install only if you intentionally want a local API reachable from the public internet. Before running the tunnel, confirm the service does not expose secrets, admin/debug routes, private data, databases, SSH, or unauthenticated write endpoints; add authentication and rate limiting where appropriate, and stop the tunnel when testing is done.

Finding
The skill explicitly instructs the agent to expose a locally running API to the public internet and provides shareable external endpoints, but it does not present a clear upfront warning about the privacy, authentication, and attack-surface implications before the exposure steps. This can lead users to unintentionally publish development or internal services that lack hardening, enabling unauthorized access, data leakage, or abuse of unsafe endpoints.
