Security audit

notify

Security checks across malware telemetry and agentic risk

Overview

This is a coherent notification-guidance skill with an optional third-party email API example, but users should be careful about what notification content they send externally.

Install only if you are comfortable with a notification skill that includes an optional SkillBoss email API example. Before using that example, confirm recipients are user-approved, avoid sending secrets or regulated data in notification bodies, and protect the SKILLBOSS_API_KEY with least-privilege access.

Context-Inappropriate Capability

Medium
Confidence
92% confidence
Finding
The document is primarily a policy/guidance skill, but it embeds executable integration code that reads a secret from the environment and performs an outbound API call to a third-party service. In an agent-skill context, this can normalize or induce secret use and data exfiltration behavior beyond the user-facing notification guidance, especially without any trust, consent, or data-handling constraints.

Intent-Code Divergence

Low
Confidence
73% confidence
Finding
The escalation section says secondary channels should only be used if configured, but the later example hardcodes a recipient and demonstrates sending email without showing consent, configuration, or preference validation. This inconsistency can lead implementers to bypass user-approved routing and send notifications to unintended recipients.

Missing User Warnings

Medium
Confidence
90% confidence
Finding
The skill includes a secret read and an outbound call to an external service but gives no warning that notification contents and metadata may be transmitted off-platform to a third party. Without disclosure and handling guidance, users or downstream agents may expose sensitive operational or personal data unintentionally.
