Full Analysis
  • [PROMPT_INJECTION]: The skill instructions directly interpolate the $ARGUMENTS variable into the system prompt. A malicious user could provide a research request designed to override the coordinator's instructions, potentially causing it to ignore safety guidelines or perform unauthorized actions.
  • [INDIRECT_PROMPT_INJECTION]: The subagents managed by this skill process untrusted data from external sources via the paper-search browse <url> tool, creating a surface for indirect injection attacks.
  • Ingestion points: User-provided research requests ($ARGUMENTS) and content fetched from the public web/academic databases through CLI search tools.
  • Boundary markers: The skill lacks explicit delimiters or instructions for the agent to disregard commands embedded within the external research data it processes.
  • Capability inventory: The orchestrator and its spawned subagents have access to Bash (command execution), Task (agent spawning), and Write/Read (filesystem access).
  • Sanitization: The skill does not implement validation or sanitization of the content retrieved from external URLs before processing it.
  • [COMMAND_EXECUTION]: The skill leverages the Bash tool to interact with research CLI utilities (paper, paper-search). While these tools are necessary for the skill's functionality, the availability of a full shell environment increases the impact of a potential prompt injection compromise.
