Security audit

Reddit Insights

Security checks across malware telemetry and agentic risk

Overview

This is a documentation-only Reddit research skill that uses a disclosed third-party API and does not include executable or hidden behavior.

Install only if you are comfortable sending Reddit research queries to reddapi.dev with a paid API key that may consume account quota. Avoid submitting secrets, personal data, regulated data, or confidential business plans unless that third-party use is approved.

Vague Triggers

Medium
Confidence
91% confidence
Finding
The trigger phrases are broad enough to activate on common research requests, which can cause the skill to be invoked unexpectedly and route user prompts to an external service. In this skill’s context, that increases privacy and consent risk because ordinary brainstorming or product-research queries may be sent to reddapi.dev without the user clearly intending to use a third-party Reddit analysis tool.

Missing User Warnings

Medium
Confidence
97% confidence
Finding
The skill description does not clearly warn users that their queries and API credentials are used with an external third-party service. This is dangerous because users may share sensitive market research terms, internal product ideas, or other confidential prompts without informed consent, and the agent may transmit them to reddapi.dev.
