Security audit

AI Code Review

Security checks across malware telemetry and agentic risk

Overview

This code-review skill is legitimate in purpose, but it can direct an agent to use GitHub access to change, commit, and push code without a clear approval step.

Install only if you want a code-review workflow that may inspect PRs and CI through your GitHub login. Before using it, tell the agent that edits, commits, pushes, dependency fixes, or audit fixes require explicit approval of a specific diff.

Finding
The skill’s activation examples are broad, generic phrases like 'レビューして', 'コードをチェック', and '品質を確認', which can overlap with ordinary conversation and unrelated requests. This increases the chance of unintended invocation, causing the agent to run repository-inspection commands or review workflows in contexts where the user did not explicitly consent to using this skill.
