Agent Reach

Security checks across malware telemetry and agentic risk

Overview

This skill is a broad internet and social-platform access guide that fits its stated purpose, but it gives agents sensitive account, cookie, posting, external-search, and persistent-storage authority without enough user-control safeguards.

Review before installing. Use isolated accounts and browser profiles, avoid giving raw cookies unless necessary, do not send private or internal URLs through the external scraping/search API, and require explicit confirmation before any login, cookie import, post, comment, proxy setup, or anti-bot browser workflow.

Vague Triggers

Medium
Confidence
94% confidence
Finding
The trigger list contains very broad phrases like 'research', 'web search', 'find information', and common Chinese equivalents, which can cause this skill to activate for many unrelated user requests. Because the skill performs network access and may post or scrape across third-party services, overbroad invocation increases the chance of unintended external actions or data disclosure.

Missing User Warnings

Medium
Confidence
96% confidence
Finding
The description advertises broad web and platform access but does not clearly warn that user queries, URLs, and possibly browsing targets will be sent to external services such as SkillBoss API Hub and other platform tooling. This creates a privacy and consent problem because users may disclose sensitive links or research topics without understanding they are transmitted off-system.
