Motie CLI

Security checks across malware telemetry and agentic risk

Overview

This skill is a plausible Motie API helper, but it gives an agent broad authority to discover and call third-party APIs without clear user-approval limits.

Review before installing. Verify the npm package and publisher, use a scoped or easily revocable Motie API key, avoid passing secrets or unnecessary personal data, and require explicit approval before any API call that costs money, changes account or real-world state, posts content, scrapes sensitive sites, or sends personal information.

Vague Triggers

Medium
Confidence
94% confidence
Finding
The activation text is very broad: it says to use the skill for nearly any task involving APIs or whenever Motie is mentioned. Overbroad triggers can cause inappropriate auto-invocation, increasing the chance the agent routes ordinary requests through an external marketplace tool unnecessarily and exposes user intent or data to third-party services.

Vague Triggers

Medium
Confidence
96% confidence
Finding
The instruction to use the skill whenever an external API is needed is ambiguous and expansive, effectively making this skill a default pathway for a wide range of tasks. In practice, that can bypass safer built-in capabilities, trigger unnecessary third-party lookups, and create opportunities for data leakage or unreviewed API usage based on weak matching.
