Deputy

Security checks across malware telemetry and agentic risk

Overview

This is a legitimate Deputy integration, but it gives an agent broad ability to change workforce and payroll-adjacent records without clear approval safeguards.

Install only if you intend to let an agent access your Deputy workspace through Membrane. Use least-privilege Deputy permissions, require preview and explicit confirmation before any write, and verify employee identity, dates, locations, pay-related fields, billing/admin targets, and the exact action before execution.

Vague Triggers

Medium
Confidence
91% confidence
Finding
The skill description is very broad and can cause the agent to invoke this skill for many ordinary Deputy-related requests without clearly distinguishing read-only tasks from sensitive write operations. In a workforce-management context, overbroad routing increases the chance of accidental employee, schedule, leave, or timesheet changes affecting real business records.

Missing User Warnings

Medium
Confidence
89% confidence
Finding
The documentation advertises actions that modify employees, timesheets, leave requests, and shifts but does not warn that these operations change authoritative workforce and payroll-related records. Without clear safety guidance, an agent may treat these actions as routine and perform impactful mutations without sufficient confirmation, validation, or awareness of downstream business consequences.
