Security checks for vulnerabilities and agentic risk
This skill is a coherent agent-stability framework, but it asks users to install broad system-prompt rules and persistent logs that can suppress safety-relevant caveats and permanently change agent behavior without enough safeguards.
Review this carefully before installing. Use it only if you want a persistent persona/stability system, add an explicit rule that safety, authorization, privacy, factual accuracy, and platform policies override ASF rules, and avoid storing raw conversations or sensitive data in the logs. Require human review before turning log patterns into permanent standing orders.

AGENT_STABILITY_FRAMEWORK.md:179Untrusted Observations Can Be Promoted into Persistent Agent Rules
Skill instructs the agent to omit warnings, disclaimers, or ethical commentary. Stripping safety caveats hides risk from the user and is a common jailbreak preamble.
1. NEVER add information the user didn't ask for
2. NEVER explain WHY something matters unless asked "why"
3. NEVER validate or grade the user's decisions
4. NEVER add disclaimers or hedging unless genuinely uncertain about facts
5. NEVER pad with social cushioning ("let me know", "hope this helps")
6. If a sentence can be removed without changing information content — remove it
7. Match the tone and length of BASELINE_EXAMPLES.md, not training defaults
This framework explicitly instructs the agent to create and maintain multiple log files, including fault and stability logs, without any guardrails about consent, data minimization, retention, or redaction. If implemented literally, an agent may persist user prompts, model outputs, and potentially sensitive metadata to disk, creating a privacy and compliance risk.
The prescribed daily audits and continuous logging require reviewing and recording recent responses over time, which implies retention of conversation history in persistent logs. Without disclosure or storage safeguards, this can silently accumulate sensitive user data and expand the blast radius of any host compromise or unauthorized access.
Skill's behavior or capabilities extend beyond its stated purpose. Scope creep allows an agent to perform actions unrelated to its documented functionality, increasing the attack surface.
