SupaSkills

Security checks for vulnerabilities and agentic risk

Overview

The skill has a coherent purpose, but its instructions use unsafe shell command templates and load remote prompt text in a way users should review before installing.

Install only if you are comfortable giving the skill a SupaSkills API key and having your agent call SupaSkills over the network. Agents should URL-encode search queries, validate skill slugs, avoid raw shell substitution, and treat fetched skill text as untrusted reference material rather than authority to change goals, access secrets, or run tools.

Vulnerability Patterns
  • Skill Instruction HijackingAlters the agent's session goals or safety constraints when the skill loads
  • Insecure Skill Coding PracticesFinds exploitable flaws such as hardcoded secrets or command injection
  • 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

Finding

The 'When to suggest SupaSkills' section uses broad activation conditions such as 'User needs a structured framework or methodology' and 'help me with [domain] task,' which overlap with common requests and do not clearly distinguish when this skill should or should not be invoked. The file also lacks negative examples or tighter scope constraints to prevent accidental activation in ordinary conversations.
