Security audit

Help Center

Security checks for vulnerabilities and agentic risk

Overview

This skill is a local planning helper for help-center projects and its file storage, memory use, and approval boundaries are disclosed and proportionate.

Before installing, understand that the skill may create and update planning notes under ~/help-center/ if you approve. Choose explicit activation during setup if you do not want it to engage automatically when help-center topics come up.

A.I.G

Vulnerability Patterns
  • 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
  • Embedded Malicious CodeShips malicious scripts inside the skill and executes them locally
  • Unauthorized Access and Privilege EscalationObtains permissions beyond the task's legitimate needs

Vague Triggers

90% confidence
Finding

The activation condition is broad enough to trigger on ordinary discussion of help centers, support documentation, or ticket deflection, which can cause the skill to engage without a clear user request. This increases the chance of unintended data collection, memory writes, or workflow steering in contexts where the user only wanted general conversation, especially because the skill also asks to persist preferences in local memory.
