Caregiving Physical Skills

Security checks for vulnerabilities and agentic risk

Overview

This is a caregiving guidance skill with disclosed health and reminder content, but users should review its medical boundaries and installation permissions before use.

Install only if you are comfortable with a caregiving skill that stores or uses sensitive care context for reminders, and prefer a host setup that restricts filesystem access to a skill-specific state directory. Treat the physical-care and medication sections as educational support, not medical judgment; use clinicians, pharmacists, emergency services, and trained in-person help for unsafe transfers, medication changes, acute symptoms, serious falls, or wounds.

Vulnerability Patterns
  • Unauthorized Access and Privilege EscalationObtains permissions beyond the task's legitimate needs
  • Insecure DependenciesIntroduces malicious components through unsafe dependency sources
  • Skill Instruction HijackingAlters the agent's session goals or safety constraints when the skill loads
  • Agent Memory PoisoningWrites attacker-controlled rules into memory that affect later sessions
  • Remote Payload Retrieval and ExecutionFetches external code whose behavior can change after review

Vague Triggers

Medium
Category
Not specified by scanner
Confidence
92% confidence
Finding

The top-level description is broad enough that the skill may activate in many everyday caregiving situations without clear limits on when professional medical escalation is required. In a health-related skill, overbroad triggering is more dangerous because users may receive highly specific physical-care instructions in situations that exceed safe home-care boundaries.

Confidence
86% confidence
Finding

The manifest includes an install command using npx clawhub without a pinned version or integrity constraint. This creates a supply-chain risk because installation behavior can change over time or be influenced by a compromised upstream package, causing users to fetch and execute unexpected code during install.

Confidence
89% confidence
Finding

The 'When to Use' section lists very broad scenarios, including medication management and warning-sign recognition, without concrete constraints or disqualifiers. In this caregiving context, that can lead to the skill being invoked for complex medical or physical-assistance situations where generalized instructions are insufficient and could delay emergency care or contribute to injury.

Autonomous Decision Making

Category
Excessive Agency
Confidence
75% confidence
Finding

Skill enables autonomous high-impact decisions without human-in-the-loop verification. Critical operations (destructive commands, financial transactions, data deletion) should require explicit user confirmation.

CRITICAL RULES:
- NEVER crush or split a pill without checking with the pharmacist.
  Some pills are extended-release or enteric-coated — crushing them
  dumps the full dose at once, which can be fatal.
- If they can't swallow pills, ask the pharmacist about liquid

Description-Behavior Mismatch

Confidence
84% confidence
Finding

The manifest frames the skill as focused on physical caregiving techniques such as transfers, bathing, and movement assistance. The documented scope and detailed instructions also cover managing another person's medications, which is adjacent caregiving guidance rather than a physical care technique.

Confidence
82% confidence
Finding

The skill's stated purpose emphasizes hands-on physical care skills for caregivers. It extends beyond that into recognizing stroke, dehydration, UTI, and silent heart attack warning signs, which is health-triage education rather than a physical technique.
