Context Verifier

Security checks for vulnerabilities and agentic risk

Overview

This skill is a local file-integrity helper that discloses its file reads and packet storage risks, with no evidence of hidden credential access or exfiltration.

Install only if you are comfortable with a skill that can hash any file path you explicitly provide. Avoid using --include-content with secrets, credentials, or broad globs, add output/context-packets/ to .gitignore, and periodically delete old packets because they are unencrypted and retained until manually removed.

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

Credential Access

High
Category
Privilege Escalation
Content
/cv packet docs/*.md --name "docs-backup" --include-content

# NEVER do this:
/cv packet .env --include-content  # Stores secrets to disk!
```

### Required .gitignore Entry
Confidence
60% confidence
Finding
Code accesses credential files (SSH keys, AWS credentials, etc.). This could indicate credential theft attempts.
