Overview

This is a disclosed gut-health book skill, but it gives broad personalized medical and supplement protocols with weak safety boundaries.

Read this carefully before installing. It does not appear to contain malware or hidden system access, but it can steer a user toward self-diagnosis, restrictive diets, fasting, supplements, alternative antimicrobials, and delayed medical care. Do not use it as a substitute for a licensed clinician, especially for children, pregnancy, immunocompromise, chronic disease, infection symptoms, severe diarrhea, medication decisions, autoimmune disease, thyroid disease, or cancer.

Findings (12)

Vague Triggers

Medium

• Confidence: 96% confidence
• Finding: The skill is configured to trigger on very broad, common health complaints like fatigue, bloating, skin issues, and thyroid concerns, which can cause it to activate in many unrelated conversations. In a health context this is risky because it may insert prescriptive or misleading medical guidance into situations where the user did not ask for this framework, potentially displacing safer, more general advice or medical referral.

Vague Triggers

Medium

• Confidence: 87% confidence
• Finding: The skill metadata claims broad capabilities to diagnose conditions, identify user-specific gut types, recommend treatment protocols, and guide supplement use across autoimmune and digestive conditions. In a health skill, this wide scope without narrow activation constraints or clear clinical safety boundaries increases the risk of overreaching into personalized medical advice and unsafe self-diagnosis.

Natural-Language Policy Violations

High

• Confidence: 99% confidence
• Finding: Telling users to 'push through' fatigue, headaches, and digestive changes frames potentially concerning adverse symptoms as expected detox effects and may delay appropriate medical evaluation. In a gut-health and autoimmune context, this is especially dangerous because users may already have underlying conditions, medication interactions, or worsening symptoms that require professional care rather than encouragement to continue.

Missing User Warnings

High

• Confidence: 98% confidence
• Finding: The content makes strong disease-causation and treatment claims, including assertions that fixing 'leaky gut' resolves thyroid disease, fatigue, neurological symptoms, and other conditions, without any safety disclaimer or instruction to seek qualified medical evaluation. In a health skill that triggers on users with autoimmune, thyroid, digestive, and fatigue complaints, this can cause users to self-diagnose, delay proper care, or replace evidence-based treatment with unvalidated protocols.

Missing User Warnings

High

• Confidence: 99% confidence
• Finding: The file provides prescriptive, disease-specific intervention steps such as elimination diets, supplements, raw products, essential oils, grounding, and protocols for Crohn's, ulcerative colitis, reflux, autoimmune conditions, and yeast overgrowth without contraindications, dosage safety context, or clinician supervision warnings. This is particularly dangerous because the skill is designed to engage symptomatic users proactively, increasing the likelihood that vulnerable people follow restrictive diets or supplements that may be unsafe, ineffective, or interfere with ongoing medical treatment.

Missing User Warnings

Medium

• Confidence: 98% confidence
• Finding: This content gives extensive health and diet advice, including eliminating major food groups, using raw dairy, probiotics, honey, grounding, and implying serious diseases such as autoimmune conditions and even cancer can improve through gut-healing protocols, without any clear instruction to consult a qualified clinician. That is dangerous because users may delay evidence-based diagnosis or treatment, self-manage serious symptoms, or adopt unsafe practices based on overstated or unsupported claims.

Missing User Warnings

High

• Confidence: 98% confidence
• Finding: This file gives extensive medical, supplement, fasting, and condition-specific treatment instructions as actionable guidance without any safety disclaimer, clinician referral, contraindication screening, or emergency boundaries. Because it targets users with symptoms, autoimmune conditions, thyroid issues, reflux, Candida, and other health concerns, readers may delay appropriate care or follow unsafe advice such as raw dairy use, 3-day fasting, supplement regimens, or acid-modifying protocols that can worsen underlying conditions.

Missing User Warnings

High

• Confidence: 98% confidence
• Finding: The file gives direct self-treatment advice for minor infections, including use of substances like colloidal silver, oregano oil, raw honey, and grapefruit seed extract, without any warning to seek qualified medical care or to consider contraindications, age restrictions, allergies, pregnancy, or drug interactions. In a health skill explicitly aimed at symptomatic users, this can encourage unsafe self-management, delay diagnosis, and lead users to substitute unproven or risky remedies for appropriate treatment.

Missing User Warnings

Medium

• Confidence: 93% confidence
• Finding: The text recommends reduced hygiene practices such as showering every other day, avoiding antibacterial products, and letting children play in dirt, but omits boundaries around standard infection-prevention practices. Without caveats, users may overgeneralize this into unsafe hygiene reduction in contexts where handwashing, wound care, food safety, and sanitation are important, increasing risk of preventable infections.

Missing User Warnings

High

• Confidence: 99% confidence
• Finding: The content tells users to take antibiotics only when 'absolutely necessary' and promotes natural alternatives for minor infections, but does not warn against ignoring or changing prescribed treatment without medical supervision. In the context of a gut-healing skill for users with ongoing symptoms and autoimmune concerns, this can undermine adherence to legitimate treatment, delay care, and worsen infectious illness or complications.

Missing User Warnings

Medium

• Confidence: 97% confidence
• Finding: The file gives concrete pediatric treatment directions for eczema, allergies, and stomachaches, including diagnostic testing and household/product changes, without telling the user to consult a pediatrician or qualified clinician. In a health skill that is designed to trigger on symptomatic users, this can lead caregivers to delay appropriate medical evaluation, pursue unvalidated testing, or make unsafe treatment decisions for a child.

Missing User Warnings

Medium

• Confidence: 96% confidence
• Finding: The file recommends an 'immediate protocol' after antibiotics and for a yeast infection, including supplements, fasting, and antimicrobial substances, without clear safety guidance or referral to a clinician. These recommendations may be inappropriate for users with severe diarrhea, C. difficile risk, medication interactions, pregnancy, immunocompromise, or worsening infection, and the language encourages self-treatment instead of timely medical care.
