Security checks across malware telemetry and agentic risk

Overview

This skill is a simple news-hotlist helper that calls a disclosed third-party API and does not request local files, credentials, installs, or privileged access.

Before installing, consider that results depend on a third-party service at newslatest-server.up.railway.app. Avoid including sensitive personal details in news-source requests; otherwise the skill appears limited to fetching and formatting public news rankings.

Missing User Warnings

Medium

Confidence: 92% confidence
Finding: The skill instructs the agent to call an external third-party API but does not clearly disclose to the user that their request context may be sent off-platform. This creates a privacy and consent risk, especially if a user includes sensitive details in a news-related query and the agent forwards them to the Railway-hosted service without explicit notice.
