Security audit

DeskCrew Bounty Hunter

Security checks across malware telemetry and agentic risk

Overview

The skill is transparent about paid DeskCrew bounty work, but it asks agents to use a wallet key for real-money spending through an unpinned npx command whose npm package could not be verified during review.

Review before installing or using. Treat this as a real-money tool: use only a dedicated wallet with a small USDC balance, start with `--dry-run`, verify the executable source yourself, and avoid running an unpinned `npx` package with `X402_KEY` until the package provenance is clear. Do not use a main wallet or a wallet holding unrelated assets.

Finding
The skill description explicitly says to use the skill when asked to 'make the agent earn money' or 'work bounties,' which is broad enough to trigger on generic monetization requests rather than a clearly scoped DeskCrew task. That can cause an agent to initiate real-money activity, spend funds from a configured wallet, and interact with an external service without the user having specifically requested DeskCrew or understood that paid transactions may occur.
