Security audit

stable-audio-2.5

Security checks across malware telemetry and agentic risk

Overview

This is a coherent background-music generation skill that uses Replicate as disclosed, with ordinary caution needed for remote prerequisite installs and API prompt sharing.

Before installing, review any npx skills add command because it can add or update skills from a remote repository, especially the optional full-suite install. When using the skill, do not put secrets or sensitive private content in audio prompts because prompts are sent to Replicate with your API token.

Confidence
90% confidence
Finding
The description says the skill should be used when someone wants 'light instrumental background music,' which is a broad natural-language condition that could match many everyday media or editing requests. It does not provide explicit trigger phrases, boundaries, or negative examples in the activation description itself, increasing the chance of unintended invocation.
