Security audit

Finance

Security checks across malware telemetry and agentic risk

Overview

This finance skill is a straightforward market-data helper that uses disclosed Polygon and CoinGecko APIs without persistence, mutation, or hidden behavior.

Install this if you want agents to answer finance and crypto market-data questions using configured Polygon and CoinGecko access. Be aware that relevant prompts may trigger external API requests and consume configured service access, but the artifacts do not show hidden persistence, destructive actions, or credential misuse.

Vague Triggers

Medium
Confidence
90% confidence
Finding
The trigger text is genuinely broad and includes catch-all wording such as 'any request for financial market information,' which can cause the skill to activate for loosely related prompts. Over-broad activation increases the chance of unintended tool/API use and unnecessary exposure of external data access in conversations that did not clearly require this skill.

Missing User Warnings

Low
Confidence
82% confidence
Finding
The skill explicitly instructs the agent to use pre-configured API-backed services but does not warn that fulfilling a request may contact external services. This creates a transparency and consent issue: users may not realize their query triggers network/API access, even if the reachable services are limited to approved proxies.
