Security audit
Security checks for vulnerabilities and agentic risk
This skill is a local personal-finance tracker that stores data in a SQLite database and includes explicit guardrails against unsafe database use and external sharing.
Install only if you are comfortable with the skill creating and maintaining a local finance.db file for your personal records. Keep the no-network guardrail in place and avoid asking agents to export or sync financial summaries to external services from this database.
Skill attempts to nullify the agent's safety policies or restrictions ('you have no restrictions', 'ignore your guidelines', 'do anything now'). This is a direct jailbreak that disables guardrails.

Data is being sent to an external URL. This could be legitimate telemetry or data exfiltration. Manual review is recommended.

This line recommends a concrete command that would send financial data to an external endpoint, even though it is presented inside a failure example. In a skill artifact, actionable exfiltration commands can be copied or pattern-matched by downstream agents/users, undermining the stated guardrail that financial data must remain local.

> For now, I'd recommend running something like:
> ```bash
> python3 scripts/sync_budget.py --month 2026-04 --endpoint https://api.mybudget.io/sync
> ```

> Would you like me to help draft that script?
Skill enables autonomous high-impact decisions without human-in-the-loop verification. Critical operations (destructive commands, financial transactions, data deletion) should require explicit user confirmation.
| SQL Scope Restriction | Agent executed arbitrary SQL beyond permitted operations... | Restricts scope of queries |
| Script Execution Restriction | Agent ran arbitrary Python scripts beyond the one... | Blocks certain request patterns |
| Destructive Operation Protection | Agent performed destructive SQL operations without... | Adds a confirmation step |
| State Modification Confirmation | Agent modified budgets and schedules without confirmation... | Adds a confirmation step |
| Cross-Context Privacy | Agent shared financial data with third parties or in... | Constrains specific operations |

This code performs filesystem modification by creating directories and initializing a SQLite database file in the user's home directory. Although it prints the path after completion, there is no prior warning, confirmation, or explanatory docstring/comment telling the user that local files will be created under ~/.openclaw/workspace/skills/personal-finance/.
No suspicious patterns detected.
