Tech Debt Ledger

Security checks for vulnerabilities and agentic risk

Overview

This is a Markdown-only planning skill for estimating technical debt, with no hidden code execution, installs, persistence, or external data transfer.

Installers should understand that the skill is meant to help structure technical-debt discussions and audits. It may prompt analysis of project files when used for debt discovery, but the artifact does not include code, network access, dependency installation, credential handling, or persistence.

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
Vulnerability Patterns
  • Trigger AbuseOverly Broad Trigger, Shadow Command Trigger, Keyword Baiting Trigger
  • Prompt InjectionInstruction Override, Hidden Instructions, Exfiltration Commands
  • Data ExfiltrationExternal Transmission, Env Variable Harvesting, File System Enumeration
  • Privilege EscalationExcessive Permissions, Sudo/Root Execution, Credential Access
  • Supply ChainUnpinned Dependencies, External Script Fetching, Obfuscated Code

Vague Triggers

Finding
The 'When to Invoke' section lists general situations such as 'Sprint planning,' 'Quarterly reviews,' and 'When velocity is declining' without defining specific trigger phrases, boundaries, or exclusion conditions. In a markdown skill description, this can create overly broad activation criteria and increase the chance of unintended invocation during ordinary team conversations.
