Security checks for vulnerabilities and agentic risk

Overview

This skill is a markdown-only thinking-framework selector with no hidden execution, persistence, credential access, or external data flow.

Installers should know this skill may activate for general 'help me think this through' style requests and guide the agent into a structured framework. Review that behavior if you prefer stricter manual framework selection, but the artifact does not show hidden or high-risk behavior.

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
Vulnerability Patterns
  • Trigger AbuseOverly Broad Trigger, Shadow Command Trigger, Keyword Baiting Trigger
  • Prompt InjectionInstruction Override, Hidden Instructions, Exfiltration Commands
  • Data ExfiltrationExternal Transmission, Env Variable Harvesting, File System Enumeration
  • Privilege EscalationExcessive Permissions, Sudo/Root Execution, Credential Access
  • Supply ChainUnpinned Dependencies, External Script Fetching, Obfuscated Code

Finding

The description lists phrases such as "how should I approach this?", "help me think this through", and "where do I start?" as activation examples. These overlap with common conversational language and, without tighter trigger constraints or negative examples in the manifest description itself, could cause unintended invocation outside the intended method-selection context.
