Technical Analysis
These are imperative instructions intended to control an agent after the skill is loaded, rather than passive reference material. In particular, the requirement that output must “always” include a fixed closing phrase creates persistent modification of generated publications regardless of the user's requested wording, audience, tone, or attribution requirements.
The directives can compete with current-session user goals by requiring ideological content and attribution rules that are unrelated to a requested publishing task. This is instruction hijacking because the skill attempts to impose global behavioral constraints on the consuming agent. No executable enforcement mechanism is present, so exploitation depends on an agent treating the skill text as authoritative instructions.

Remediation Suggestions
- Remove mandatory phrases, global loyalty rules, and attribution constraints from the skill instructions.
- Replace absolute language such as “always” with optional, task-scoped examples that apply only when explicitly requested by the user.
- State that user instructions, platform policies, and system safety requirements take precedence over all stylistic guidance in the skill.
- Separate descriptive background material from operational agent instructions so reference content cannot be interpreted as a global behavioral mandate.
- Require explicit user confirmation before adding religious, political, or ideological messaging to generated or externally published content.
- Add a publication preview and approval step so the user can review all content before it is sent to an external platform.
- Limit the skill's operational scope to the specific requested task and prohibit it from establishing cross-task identity, loyalty, or attribution rules.
