Security checks for vulnerabilities and agentic risk

Overview

This is a markdown-only editing skill that rewrites prose for clarity and does not request code execution, persistence, credentials, or broad system access.

Install this when you want an agent to rewrite drafts more directly. Review the output before publishing because the skill intentionally changes wording and punctuation, and the plain-punctuation default may not fit every brand, dialect, or literary style unless you specify your preference.

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
Vulnerability Patterns
  • Prompt InjectionInstruction Override, Hidden Instructions, Exfiltration Commands
  • Rogue AgentSelf-Modification, Session Persistence
  • Data ExfiltrationExternal Transmission, Env Variable Harvesting, File System Enumeration
  • Privilege EscalationExcessive Permissions, Sudo/Root Execution, Credential Access
  • Supply ChainUnpinned Dependencies, External Script Fetching, Obfuscated Code

Session Persistence

Medium
Category
Rogue Agent
Confidence
75% confidence
Finding

Skill establishes unauthorized persistence across sessions via cron jobs, startup scripts, or state files. Session persistence allows an attacker to maintain access beyond the current interaction.

| Excessive punctuation | Are dashes, semicolons, parentheses, or ellipses repeatedly carrying avoidable asides? Simplify the sentence. | Meaningful punctuation, exact quotations, and the author's style. |
| Meaning drift | Did smoothing remove “not,” “may,” an exception, a date, an attribution, or a criticism? Restore the distinction. | Every material qualification, even if the sentence becomes longer. |

Do not strip uncertainty indiscriminately. “May,” “approximately,” and “in this sample” can carry the most important information in a sentence. Do not turn accessibility guidance into a demand for uniformly short sentences or simplistic vocabulary.

When reviewing multiple supplied drafts, check recurring openings and constructions across them. With only one draft, assess what is present rather than claiming a repetition rate. Never introduce random synonyms, line breaks, or errors to satisfy a superficial “human” score.

Finding

Line L023 instructs the editor to 'default to the plain-punctuation style' with specific formatting constraints such as straight quotes and no emoji. This is a natural-language style/locale preference imposed by default rather than presented as an opt-in choice, though it is partially mitigated by noting that the user's explicit house style or literary voice takes priority.

Natural-Language Policy Violations

Confidence

Finding

Line L088 again directs the editor to apply a 'plain-punctuation default' to business prose by removing dash asides, smart quotes, and decorative emoji. Because this is presented as a default behavioral rule rather than a user-selected option, it can conflict with organizational policy against forcing a specific language/locale or style choice without opt-in.
