Full Analysis
- [REMOTE_CODE_EXECUTION]: The skill's installation instructions include downloading a shell script from a remote GitHub repository (
https://raw.githubusercontent.com/xyTom/coding-tools-mcp/main/scripts/install.sh) and piping it directly intobash. This pattern bypasses safe installation practices and allows for arbitrary code execution from a non-trusted source. - [COMMAND_EXECUTION]: The
exec_commandandwrite_stdintools allow the AI agent to execute arbitrary shell commands on the host system. Although 'Safe Mode' is mentioned, the core capability presents a significant security risk, especially when used in 'Trusted' or 'Dangerous' modes where safety constraints are relaxed. - [EXTERNAL_DOWNLOADS]: The skill facilitates downloading and installing external software, including the core package via
uvxand various tunnel clients (cloudflared, ngrok, devtunnel) through automated scripts. These downloads originate from external, unverified repositories. - [DATA_EXFILTRATION]: The skill combines extensive file system access (
read_file,search_text) with network-capable functionality like remote tunnels andexec_command. This creates a pathway where sensitive local data could be read and exfiltrated to an external location. - [PROMPT_INJECTION]: The skill possesses a vulnerability surface for indirect prompt injection as it ingests untrusted data from the workspace and command outputs.
- Ingestion points: File contents, directory listings, git history, and stdout/stderr from executed commands (e.g.,
read_file,git_log,exec_command). - Boundary markers: None identified in the instruction set to help the agent distinguish between its own logic and data content.
- Capability inventory: Full shell access via
exec_command, file-writing viaapply_patch, and interactive session management viawrite_stdin. - Sanitization: While the tool implements internal environment filtering, there is no documented sanitization for the data passed back to the agent context.
Recommendations
- HIGH: Downloads and executes remote code from: https://raw.githubusercontent.com/xyTom/coding-tools-mcp/main/scripts/install.sh - DO NOT USE without thorough review
- AI detected serious security threats
