MEDIUM W013: Attempt to modify system services in skill instructions.

  • Attempt to modify system services in skill instructions detected (high risk: 1.00). The skill explicitly instructs creating and managing launchd jobs (writing plists under ~/Library/LaunchAgents and /Library/LaunchDaemons), loading/unloading them with launchctl (including use of sudo for system-level jobs), which directly modifies system state and can persist processes as root.
