Kalshi Event Contract Tracker

Security checks for vulnerabilities and agentic risk

Overview

This skill is a read-only Kalshi market tracker that uses a disclosed Kalshi API key to fetch prices, order books, and trades.

Install only if you are comfortable giving the agent access to a Kalshi API key for read-only market queries. Use a scoped or revocable key if Kalshi supports it, and review commands before running them because they contact Kalshi's API with your credential.

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
