Security checks across malware telemetry and agentic risk

Overview

The skill is a disclosed R&D report workflow whose file creation and optional evidence searches fit its stated purpose.

Install only if you want a workflow that can create report files and, when you authorize research, query patent, literature, standards, or web sources. Use confidentiality-minimized wording for sensitive projects and choose an explicit output directory.

MCP Least Privilege

Finding
The skill explicitly instructs the agent to read local files, write artifacts, invoke a renderer script, and perform external network queries, yet no declared permissions are present. This creates a capability/permission mismatch that can bypass governance controls, causing the skill to appear less powerful than it actually is and increasing the risk of unintended file modification or data exfiltration in a high-privilege runtime.
