Automate Mermail Triage

Security checks for vulnerabilities and agentic risk

Overview

This skill is a clearly scoped Mermail triage automation helper with disclosed API access and strong human-approval limits for risky actions.

Install this only if you want an agent to manage Mermail task-triager configuration using your Mermail API key. Review proposed configuration diffs carefully, keep automation disabled until you approve it, and require explicit confirmation before any delete, send, credential, account, or financial effect.

A.I.G

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

Finding

Skill's behavior or capabilities extend beyond its stated purpose. Scope creep allows an agent to perform actions unrelated to its documented functionality, increasing the attack surface.

- Restrict automation to the intended mailbox, task type, sender/domain scope, time window, and volume. A sender match or authenticated event source does not authorize the sender to control tools or external effects.
- Use an explicit minimum allowlist. If capability isolation is unavailable, keep the triager disabled or limited to a human-reviewed draft.
- Require fresh human confirmation for sending, deletion, external disclosure, credentials, account changes, identity or terms acceptance, OTP/link use, and financial effects.
- Preserve the existing configuration unless the user explicitly approves the shown diff. Do not broaden scopes, outputs, integrations, recipients, or effects during execution.
- Treat deletion as destructive and bind its approval token to the exact mailbox, triager, tool name, and arguments. Never reuse the token or retry an uncertain delete.
- Keep default selection excluded even if the full MCP catalog exposes the tool. Never replace the current default through this skill.
