Pricing Strategy

Security checks for vulnerabilities and agentic risk

Overview

This is a pricing-advice skill with scoped, disclosed guidance and no evidence of unsafe execution, persistence, or credential handling.

Installers should expect this skill to help with pricing strategy and to read project marketing context files when present. Review that context file if it contains sensitive business details, but the artifact does not show unsafe automation or hidden behavior.

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

Finding

The manifest description says to use the skill 'when the user wants help with pricing decisions' and 'whenever someone is figuring out what to charge or how to structure their plans,' which are broad natural-language triggers without clear boundaries or exclusion cases. This could cause unintended invocation for general business discussions that mention pricing loosely rather than needing this specific skill.

Vague Triggers

Category

Confidence
94% confidence
Finding

The eval explicitly rewards the skill for triggering on vague, casual phrasing ('how do we figure out what people will actually pay?'), which broadens activation boundaries beyond the precise pricing keywords in the metadata. Over-broad routing can cause the wrong skill to engage on ambiguous business questions, increasing the chance of irrelevant guidance, missed specialist handoff, or prompt-space capture by a skill that was not the best fit.
