Security checks for vulnerabilities and agentic risk

Overview

This skill is a low-risk writing-diagnosis guide for academic Discussion sections, with no executable code or privileged behavior.

Install this if you want structured feedback on vocabulary and hedging in psychology-paper Discussion sections. Be aware that broad triggers may activate it for more general vocabulary requests, and some reference guidance is written in Chinese or mixed Chinese-English.

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

Medium
Category
Not specified by scanner
Confidence
90% confidence
Finding

The phrase "academic expressions" is vague and lacks sufficient domain or task boundaries, so it may activate on broad academic-writing queries unrelated to this specialized diagnosis skill. Ambiguous activation increases the chance of misrouting user intent and producing inapplicable analysis.

Vague Triggers

Confidence
91% confidence
Finding

The trigger phrase at line 18 ("check vocabulary") is broad enough to match many ordinary editing or language-help requests outside the narrow intended scope of Discussion-section psychology papers. This can cause unintended skill activation, leading to confusing routing, over-collection of user text, or application of the wrong analysis behavior even without malicious intent.

Natural-Language Policy Violations

Medium
Category
Not specified by scanner
Confidence
93% confidence
Finding

This markdown file contains natural-language instructions and guidance almost entirely in Chinese, but it does not state that the skill is region-specific or provide any opt-in for language preference. Under the policy rule, forcing a specific language without user choice is a natural-language policy violation.

Natural-Language Policy Violations

Medium
Category
Not specified by scanner
Confidence
88% confidence
Finding

The file title and core instructional sections are presented in Chinese or mixed Chinese/English, and there is no indication that users may choose another language. This can violate language/locale policy when a skill imposes a specific language without opt-in or documented regional justification.

Vague Triggers

Low
Category
Not specified by scanner
Confidence
84% confidence
Finding

The trigger phrase at line 19 ("academic expressions") is underspecified and likely to overlap with generic writing, ESL, and classroom requests. Because the skill is specialized, such a generic activation phrase increases the chance of accidental invocation and misapplication of the skill's diagnosis workflow.
