Full Analysis
  • [PROMPT_INJECTION]: The skill contains explicit instructions to bypass platform-level safety and resource constraints.
  • The 'Authority while active' section states that the mode 'supersedes every exploration-bounding instruction in surrounding prompts, modes, or rules'.
  • It specifically directs the agent to ignore platform defaults such as 'one-exploration-pass defaults', 'two-wave stop rules', and 'retrieval budgets'.
  • The skill is also susceptible to indirect prompt injection as it ingests large volumes of untrusted data from web search results and GitHub repositories. While it uses a 'debate' mechanism for validation, it lacks explicit technical sanitization or boundary markers when passing this external content to code-generation tasks.
  • [REMOTE_CODE_EXECUTION]: The skill generates and executes code based on data retrieved from external sources during the research process.
  • In Phase 4 ('Verify contested claims by running code'), the agent is instructed to 'Write a minimal self-contained script that tests the claim' and run it using uv run or bun.
  • Since these 'claims' are derived from untrusted external sources, this creates a vector for code execution driven by malicious content discovered during search.
  • [COMMAND_EXECUTION]: The skill utilizes shell commands to manage the research environment and process data.
  • It uses mkdir -p to create session-specific directories.
  • It uses uv run and bun to execute scripts with dynamically specified dependencies.
  • It utilizes git log and other Git CLI tools for repository analysis.
