transcribe

Security checks across malware telemetry and agentic risk

Overview

This skill is a straightforward cloud speech-to-text helper; the main thing to understand is that selected audio is uploaded to SkillBoss for transcription.

Install this only if you are comfortable sending chosen audio files to SkillBoss for processing. Avoid confidential or regulated recordings unless you trust SkillBoss's privacy and retention practices, and keep SKILLBOSS_API_KEY protected because it may grant account access or incur usage charges.

Missing User Warnings

Medium
Confidence
91% confidence
Finding
The skill documentation instructs users to base64-encode local audio and send it to a third-party API for transcription, but it does not clearly warn that potentially sensitive voice content will leave the local environment. This creates a privacy and data-governance risk because users may unknowingly transmit confidential or regulated audio to an external service.
