Full Analysis
- [EXTERNAL_DOWNLOADS]: The skill uses
npx --yes skillsto download and execute a package from the npm registry. While npm is a well-known service, executing remote code is a significant capability. - [COMMAND_EXECUTION]: Utilizes shell commands including
npx,jq, andtestto perform file system operations, check lock files, and manage skill symlinks in~/.agents/and~/.claude/. - [PROMPT_INJECTION]: Vulnerable to indirect prompt injection (Category 8) because it processes untrusted metadata from external skill sources.
- Ingestion points: Reads descriptions and instructions from
SKILL.mdfiles and listing output fromnpx skills add <source> --list(SKILL.md). - Boundary markers: Absent. The instructions do not specify delimiters or warnings to ignore embedded instructions in the ingested content.
- Capability inventory: The agent has the ability to run shell commands via
npxand write to the file system (SKILL.md). - Sanitization: Absent. Metadata from external sources is summarized and used to drive user choices without escaping or validation.
