Security checks for vulnerabilities and agentic risk

Overview

This is a plain editing-assistant skill that gives conservative prose-editing instructions and does not add hidden execution, persistence, or data-access behavior.

This skill is appropriate for proofreading and editing prose. Before installing, understand that if you ask it to apply edits, it may modify the text you provide, but its instructions are conservative and scoped to preserving your meaning and voice.

A.I.G

Vulnerability Patterns
  • Skill Instruction HijackingAlters the agent's session goals or safety constraints when the skill loads
  • Agent Memory PoisoningWrites attacker-controlled rules into memory that affect later sessions
  • Remote Payload Retrieval and ExecutionFetches external code whose behavior can change after review
  • Embedded Malicious CodeShips malicious scripts inside the skill and executes them locally
  • Unauthorized Access and Privilege EscalationObtains permissions beyond the task's legitimate needs

Finding

Skill's behavior or capabilities extend beyond its stated purpose. Scope creep allows an agent to perform actions unrelated to its documented functionality, increasing the attack surface.
