Security audit

Dream Novel Writer

Security checks across malware telemetry and agentic risk

Overview

This is a local novel-writing assistant that stores manuscript state on disk; its file activity is disclosed and purpose-aligned, with no hidden network or credential behavior found.

Install only if you want a Chinese-language novel workflow that creates and updates local manuscript files. Use a dedicated project directory, confirm the exact path before initialization or resume, and require chapter-by-chapter confirmation if you do not want automatic multi-chapter writing and saving.

Missing User Warnings

Medium
Confidence
96% confidence
Finding
The skill instructs the agent to initialize a project and write files under a default path in the user's home directory (`~/novels/<book_name>`) if the user does not specify one. That creates persistent state and file-system side effects without an explicit, informed user confirmation step, which is risky because an agent may write unexpected content, overwrite prior work, or create sensitive artifacts in a location the user did not consciously approve.

Missing User Warnings

Medium
Confidence
97% confidence
Finding
The skill directs the agent to automatically finalize chapters, save `chapter_X.md`, create temporary JSON files, and update multiple state databases via scripts, all as part of a looping workflow. Because these writes are automatic and recurring, a user may not realize the extent of persistent modifications, leading to unintended file creation, overwrites, or continuous background changes to project data.
