Ai Cost Optimizer

Security checks for vulnerabilities and agentic risk

Overview

This is a simple AI model cost-advice skill with broad activation wording but no executable code, persistence, hidden data access, or destructive behavior.

Before installing, note that the skill may activate on generic AI cost phrases and its model price table may become stale, so users should verify current provider pricing before making spending decisions. Avoid sharing actual API keys in chat unless a trusted workflow explicitly requires it.

A.I.G

Vulnerability Patterns
  • Skill Instruction HijackingAlters the agent's session goals or safety constraints when the skill loads
  • Agent Memory PoisoningWrites attacker-controlled rules into memory that affect later sessions
  • Remote Payload Retrieval and ExecutionFetches external code whose behavior can change after review
  • Embedded Malicious CodeShips malicious scripts inside the skill and executes them locally
  • Unauthorized Access and Privilege EscalationObtains permissions beyond the task's legitimate needs

Vague Triggers

Medium
Confidence
92% confidence
Finding
The trigger phrases are very broad, generic cost-related terms and are not scoped to a specific product, tenant, or safe intent boundary. This can cause the skill to activate during ordinary conversation and steer users into vendor-specific recommendations or commercial guidance they did not explicitly request, increasing the chance of inappropriate invocation and misleading advice.

Vague Triggers

Medium
Confidence
94% confidence
Finding
The description "AI-powered skill for productivity" is overly generic and does not meaningfully constrain the skill's intended purpose or invocation boundaries. Broad descriptions can cause an agent to invoke the skill in unrelated contexts, increasing the risk of unintended actions, misuse, or exposure to adversarial prompt routing if the skill later includes powerful capabilities.
