Security audit

benchmark-robustness-auditor

Security checks across malware telemetry and agentic risk

Overview

This appears to be a defensive benchmark-auditing guide, but it overstates bundled tooling and needs care around tokens and external helper scripts.

Before installing, understand that this package is mostly guidance: the referenced scripts are not actually included in the inspected artifact. Only run commands after verifying the referenced files exist and reviewing any external helpers, especially the self-heal script and PATH shim. Use a limited GitHub token for date checks and avoid pointing the audits at private benchmark data unless you are comfortable with the described local caching and external API use.

Vague Triggers

Medium
Confidence
82% confidence
Finding
This manifest-style description broadly describes the skill's capabilities but does not specify when the skill should or should not activate, nor does it provide explicit trigger phrases or exclusion conditions. In manifest files, missing specificity about activation scope can lead to unintended invocation in loosely related benchmark or red-team contexts.

Missing User Warnings

Medium
Confidence
91% confidence
Finding
The documentation instructs use of `--github-token $GITHUB_TOKEN` for a GitHub API check, which implies credential use and outbound network access. The markdown does not include a warning about transmitting data to external services or handling sensitive credentials, which is expected for markdown files documenting privacy- or integrity-relevant behavior.
