Security audit

Novel Polish

Security checks for vulnerabilities and agentic risk

Overview

This skill is a plain writing-assistance prompt for polishing novel passages, with no code execution, persistence, credential use, or hidden data access.

This appears safe to install for fiction or novel polishing. Be aware that because its trigger wording is broad, it may be invoked for some general prose-editing requests where a more specific writing or editing skill might fit better.

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

The trigger guidance is broad enough to match many generic writing-assistance requests such as improving writing or refining prose, which can cause the skill to activate outside its intended niche. Over-broad invocation increases the chance of prompt-routing collisions, inappropriate tool selection, or unintended handling of user content by this skill instead of a more suitable one.
