Tesla Skill

Security checks across malware telemetry and agentic risk

Overview

This skill is openly meant to control a Tesla, but it gives an agent sensitive vehicle-control authority without clear per-action confirmation rules.

Install only if you trust the teslacli/AgentGen source and are comfortable giving an agent Tesla account and vehicle-control authority. Inspect or pin the installer before running it, protect ~/.config/teslacli/, and require explicit approval for every command that unlocks, wakes, honks, changes climate, changes charging, or retrieves location/state data.

Missing User Warnings

Medium
Confidence
84% confidence
Finding
The skill explicitly enables remote vehicle control actions such as unlock, honk, flash, climate, and charging, but does not include meaningful safety, authorization, or consent checks before describing those capabilities. In context, this is more dangerous than ordinary device control because it affects a physical asset and could facilitate unauthorized access or unsafe actions if invoked for the wrong vehicle or user.
