Security checks across malware telemetry and agentic risk

Overview

This skill is not deceptive, but it gives an agent broad power to install, update, or remove other skills, so it needs review before use.

Install only if you want an agent helper that can manage other skills. Approve only specific `npx skills` commands you requested, review each target skill and publisher first, and avoid broad updates or removals unless you intend to change the local skill environment.

Vague Triggers

Medium
Confidence
91% confidence
Finding
The manifest description includes many broad trigger phrases such as 'find skills', 'more capabilities', and 'similar skills' that can match ordinary user requests unrelated to package installation. This increases the chance the skill is auto-invoked in contexts where the user did not explicitly ask to search or install software, which is risky because the skill is connected to a package-management style tool.

Missing User Warnings

Medium
Confidence
95% confidence
Finding
The documentation prominently includes `npx skills add`, `update`, and `remove` commands but does not warn that these commands change the local environment by installing or modifying software. In the context of a discovery skill that encourages expanding capabilities, this makes unintended system changes more likely, especially if the agent or user treats the examples as safe defaults.
