Agent Shared Context

Security checks across malware telemetry and agentic risk

Overview

This skill transparently stores local shared notes so multiple agents can coordinate, with no evidence of network access, credential use, or hidden behavior.

Install only if you want agents on the same machine to share local persistent context. Limit write access to trusted agents, do not store secrets or private data in the shared files, and require validation or human review before using shared context to post, engage, moderate, or make business-impacting decisions.

Finding
The skill explicitly instructs agents to read from and write to shared files, but it declares no permissions or trust boundaries. In a multi-agent system, this creates an untracked capability for cross-agent influence and data flow, making it easier for one agent or compromised workflow to tamper with another agent's behavior through shared JSON state. The danger is amplified because the skill encourages automatic consumption of shared context before acting.
