• Outcome: Review

  1.0.3

Overview

This skill is purpose-aligned but should be reviewed because it intentionally persists generated state and injects it into future agent context.

Install only if you want generated emotional state to persist across sessions and appear in the agent’s prompt. Review the npm plugin before enabling it, keep STATE.md visible and editable, avoid putting sensitive details in event summaries, and make sure you can disable the heartbeat or clear the state when needed.

Missing User Warnings

Low

• Confidence: 92% confidence
• Finding: The skill explicitly instructs users to run `promitheus_inject`, a tool described as writing `STATE.md`, but does not warn that it modifies files in the workspace. Undisclosed file writes can surprise users, overwrite existing content, or create prompt-injection surfaces if other agent components automatically read `STATE.md` as trusted context.
