Task Pilot

Security checks for vulnerabilities and agentic risk

Overview

This is a planning and checkpointing skill with no executable code or hidden high-impact behavior.

Install this if you want stricter planning, checkpoints, and recovery notes during longer tasks. Expect extra confirmation steps and visible context anchors, but there is no evidence of hidden execution, data access, persistence, or credential handling.

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

Finding

The 'When to Activate' section uses generic conditions like '3 or more distinct steps' and 'many exchanges,' which are broad enough to match a large range of everyday requests. Although it includes a short 'Skip it for' clause, it does not provide concrete trigger phrases or clearer boundaries for when similar tasks should not invoke the skill.

Scope Creep

Low
Category
Excessive Agency
Confidence
75% confidence
Finding

Skill's behavior or capabilities extend beyond its stated purpose. Scope creep allows an agent to perform actions unrelated to its documented functionality, increasing the attack surface.

## Scope Discipline

- Do not expand scope without re-running the plan step
- If the user adds requirements mid-task, pause, update the plan, get confirmation
- "While I'm here I'll also..." is a scope violation unless explicitly approved
