ASI02: Tool Misuse and Exploitation
What this means

The agent could publish LinkedIn replies through a configured backend when the user expected only draft text.

Why it was flagged

A workflow framed as drafting can invoke a backend that posts publicly, but the instructions do not define an explicit user confirmation gate before high-impact posting.

Skill content
Draft responses for warm threads using `linkedin-reply-handler` (which adapts to the active backend per `lib.active_backend()` — Publora auto-posts, manual mode returns copy-paste, DIY invokes custom poster).
Recommendation

Use this only with a manual/copy-paste backend unless the user explicitly approves each post; require a confirmation step before any public reply or DM is sent.

ConcernMedium Confidence
ASI03: Identity and Privilege Abuse
What this means

The user may not know which LinkedIn or publishing account permissions the workflow will use, or how broad those permissions are.

Why it was flagged

Auto-posting or custom posting implies use of delegated LinkedIn/social publishing authority, but the supplied requirements declare no primary credential, env vars, or scoped account configuration.

Skill content
Publora auto-posts, manual mode returns copy-paste, DIY invokes custom poster
Recommendation

Clearly document required accounts, tokens, scopes, and which backend is active before enabling the skill; avoid granting posting permissions unless necessary.

What this means

Actual posting behavior may depend on another installed skill or backend with separate risks.

Why it was flagged

Core behavior depends on another skill and active backend logic that are not part of this reviewed package, so their safety controls cannot be verified from these artifacts.

Skill content
`linkedin-reply-handler` — drafts the actual follow-up message
Recommendation

Review the linked reply-handler skill and backend configuration before relying on this workflow, especially if any backend can post automatically.

What this means

LinkedIn activity and profile/thread information may be retrieved through or shared with an external provider.

Why it was flagged

The skill discloses a third-party/API data flow involving the user's LinkedIn profile URL, recent comments, and thread context; this is purpose-aligned but should be visible to the user.

Skill content
Fetch user's recent comments via HarvestAPI `/linkedin/profile-comments`.
Recommendation

Use only if the user is comfortable with HarvestAPI handling this LinkedIn activity, and avoid providing private or sensitive profile data unnecessarily.
