Risk Level: MEDIUM
Full Analysis
MEDIUM W011: Third-party content exposure detected (indirect prompt injection risk).
- Third-party content exposure detected (high risk: 0.85). Outsider free text from the public GitHub repo is cloned at runtime (
git clone https://github.com/obra/superpowers.git), and the installer copies skill directories including theirSKILL.md/content into the local skills folder (which CodeArts later reads into the LLM context); this is indirect prompt-injection exposure via third-party-authored markdown.
MEDIUM W012: Unverifiable external dependency detected (runtime URL that controls agent).
- Potentially malicious external URL detected (high risk: 1.00). The installer runs git at runtime to clone and load remote skill files from https://github.com/obra/superpowers.git, which are then installed as CodeArts skills (SKILL.md content) that directly control agent prompts/behavior, so the fetched repository is a required runtime dependency that controls the agent.
