Agent Identity

Security checks across malware telemetry and agentic risk

Overview

This skill appears to do what it claims: create and manage agent cryptographic identities, with the main risk being how users store generated private keys.

Install only if you need an agent identity/key-management helper. Use encrypted private keys where possible, avoid passing passwords on the command line, keep the keys directory private, and do not sync or share generated private keys casually.

Missing User Warnings

Medium
Confidence
97% confidence
Finding
The tool allows private keys to be written to disk with NoEncryption() when no password is supplied, and it provides no strong runtime warning or safe default. If those files are exposed through local compromise, backups, shared volumes, or permissive filesystem access, an attacker can impersonate the agent and forge signatures.
