ATSPrep: Tailor a resume to a job

Security checks for vulnerabilities and agentic risk

Overview

The skill uses a disclosed external service to tailor resumes and requires user approval for suggested edits.

Install if you are comfortable sending resume content to ATSPrep and selected text to its disclosed AI provider. Remove unnecessary personal details, use only intended input files, delete temporary copies, and check any custom endpoint setting. The server's privacy and filtering claims remain unverified by this artifact review.

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
Vulnerability Patterns
  • Excessive AgencyUnrestricted Tool Access, Autonomous Decision Making, Scope Creep
  • MCP Least PrivilegeUnderdeclared Capability, Wildcard Permission, Missing Permission Declaration
  • Prompt InjectionInstruction Override, Hidden Instructions, Exfiltration Commands
  • Data ExfiltrationExternal Transmission, Env Variable Harvesting, File System Enumeration
  • Privilege EscalationExcessive Permissions, Sudo/Root Execution, Credential Access

n the current working directory first, and delete it when you're done. `node scripts/atsprep.mjs list` lists the tools.

Skill declares no tool scope ('permissions' or 'allowed-tools') but code capabilities were detected: env, network.
