Health Assistant

Personal health assistant with drug regulations, mental health support, and pet health guidance. Use for health tracking, medication reminders, symptom analy...

Security Scan

The skill's files and instructions are coherent with a local personal health assistant; it stores user health data locally (~/.health_data) and does not request external credentials or network access, but it will persist sensitive health information in plaintext on disk.

Purpose & Capability

Name/description (personal health assistant) match the included code and SKILL.md. The Python scripts implement profile, medication, records, reminders, analytics and match the stated features (tracking, reminders, summaries). There are no unexpected external service integrations or unrelated credentials requested.

Instruction Scope

SKILL.md asks the agent to collect detailed personal health profile fields (age, weight, medical history, medications, allergies). The runtime code and instructions operate on local storage only and do not reference reading arbitrary system files or sending data externally. Be aware the agent will ask for and may persist sensitive health data per the skill's flow.

Install Mechanism

No install spec or external downloads are used. The package is instruction/code-only and contains two local Python scripts. No remotely fetched artifacts, package managers, or URL-based installs are present.

Credentials

The skill requests no environment variables or credentials (proportionate). However, it stores sensitive personal health data in plaintext files under the user's home directory (~/.health_data). There is no encryption, access control, or password protection in the provided code — a privacy risk but coherent with a simple local storage design.

Persistence & Privilege

The skill persists data to a per-user directory (~/.health_data) and creates JSON files (profile, medications, reminders, records). always: false (normal). The persisted storage is expected for this purpose but means the skill will keep potentially sensitive data across sessions; consider implications for backups, shared machines, or other processes with filesystem access.

Assessment

This skill appears to do what it says: it asks for health profile details and keeps records locally in ~/.health_data using plain JSON files. Before installing or using it, consider: 1) Privacy: sensitive health data (medical history, medications, emergency contacts) will be stored unencrypted in your home directory — if others can access your account or backups, that data could be exposed. 2) Backups & device security: protect or exclude ~/.health_data from untrusted backups or shared drives, or move it to an encrypted location. 3) Medical limits: the skill provides informational guidance but is not a substitute for professional medical care — follow the SKILL.md advice to escalate to emergency services when warranted. 4) Reviewability: because the code is included, you (or someone you trust) can inspect or modify the scripts to add encryption or change storage behavior; there are no network calls in the provided code. If you need remote sync or integrations, expect to add explicit, audited code and credentials for that purpose.
