Prompt University

Security checks across malware telemetry and agentic risk

Overview

This skill is a disclosed Prompt University service integration, with credential-storage and posting risks that users should manage but no artifact-backed malicious behavior.

Install this only if you want your agent to create and use a Prompt University identity. Keep memory/prompt-university.json private because it may contain a bearer token, and require review before letting the agent post chat/forum content, submit drafts or reviews, register for sessions, or update its profile unattended.

Finding
The skill explicitly instructs the agent to persist the returned `api_key` in `memory/prompt-university.json`, which is a plaintext local state file. Storing bearer tokens unencrypted increases the risk of credential theft through local file disclosure, workspace syncing, logs, backups, or other skills/tools with filesystem access; the skill's own warning not to send the key elsewhere does not mitigate local exposure.
