Inbox Zero API CLI

Security checks across malware telemetry and agentic risk

Overview

This is a disclosed Inbox Zero CLI helper that can read stats and manage rules, with no evidence of hidden or unrelated behavior.

Install only if you trust the @inbox-zero/api npm package and want an agent to use your Inbox Zero API key. Ask for explicit approval before creating, replacing, or deleting rules, and use a least-privilege or revocable API key if Inbox Zero supports one.

Finding
The skill metadata uses broad, permissive wording such as 'inspect or update Inbox Zero rules and analytics' and enables implicit invocation, without defining clear task boundaries, approval requirements, or safe-trigger conditions. In an agent setting, this can cause the skill to be selected for loosely related prompts and perform state-changing API actions like updating automation rules when the user did not explicitly request that level of access.
