Satellite Tracker

Security checks across malware telemetry and agentic risk

Overview

This is a coherent satellite-tracking skill that fetches public Celestrak orbit data and keeps a small local cache, with no evidence of credential use or unrelated behavior.

Before installing, expect the skill to access Celestrak for public TLE data and update a local tle_cache.json file. Install sgp4 from a trusted source, and treat any request for API keys, tokens, or broader filesystem access as unexpected for this skill.

Finding
The skill declares no permissions in metadata, but the documented behavior clearly implies network access to fetch Celestrak TLE data and local file writes for JSON caching. This creates a transparency and policy-enforcement gap: a host system may treat the skill as requiring no privileges while it actually performs privileged operations, which can lead to unexpected outbound connections or filesystem modifications.
