Security checks for vulnerabilities and agentic risk
This is a tailored executive-assistant skill, but it asks for broad private-data access and direct calendar/task changes without enough consent, scoping, or retention controls.
Install only if you intentionally want a highly proactive assistant with access to private email, messages, files, calendars, and tasks. Before use, restrict accounts and folders, require confirmation for deletions/modifications and any sending, remove hardcoded personal identifiers, and add clear retention and deletion controls for logs and extracted message content.

The skill explicitly instructs proactive scanning of Gmail, WhatsApp, Google Drive, and user files without any explicit consent boundary, warning, or minimization rule. In this context, the agent is encouraged to pull sensitive information from multiple private sources beyond a user’s immediate request, creating a substantial privacy and over-collection risk.
The file-scanning section directs routine inspection of Google Drive and local or synced documents to extract operationally useful information, including potentially sensitive career, client, and personal data. Because this inspection is proactive and broad rather than user-scoped, it increases the chance of unnecessary exposure and retention of confidential content.
The skill instructs the agent to proactively seek out and extract sensitive information from private files and messages, including job-search materials, client briefs, and personal communications, without waiting for direct user requests. This is dangerous because it normalizes surveillance-like behavior and encourages collection of more data than is necessary to fulfill a specific task.
The skill mandates proactive monitoring of WhatsApp conversations and recent emails to detect commitments, unanswered messages, and urgency signals without a clear communications-monitoring disclosure. Continuous or default analysis of private communications is highly sensitive and can expose personal, professional, and third-party data well beyond what is needed for the immediate task.
The skill requires broad retention and logging of tasks, commitments, decisions, message content, and extracted data across email, WhatsApp, and files under a 'mémoire totale' model. Comprehensive cross-source retention increases the blast radius of any compromise, leaks sensitive user and third-party information, and conflicts with data-minimization principles.
Code accesses credential files (SSH keys, AWS credentials, etc.). This could indicate credential theft attempts.

Tu ne crées JAMAIS de fichier Python. Tu n'utilises JAMAIS credentials.json. Tu n'utilises JAMAIS l'API Google directement. La commande gog ci-dessus est la SEULE méthode autorisée.

The skill authorizes the agent to create, modify, and delete calendar events and tasks directly, but does not require confirmation for destructive actions or warn the user about autonomous changes. This can cause loss of scheduling integrity, accidental deletions, and unauthorized changes if the skill misinterprets context or is prompted maliciously.
The instructions are written to require a fixed communication style in French, including mandatory informal address, with no indication that the user may choose another language or locale. This is a natural-language policy concern because it imposes a language/locale preference without explicit opt-in or justification as a region-specific tool.
