Paychex

Security checks across malware telemetry and agentic risk

Overview

This Paychex skill is transparent about using Membrane, but it can modify sensitive payroll and worker records without clear confirmation safeguards.

Install only if you trust Membrane and intend to give it Paychex access. Use least-privilege Paychex permissions, verify the exact company, worker, pay period, and fields before any change, and require explicit confirmation before create, update, delete, pay-rate, check, or raw proxy requests.
