Full Analysis
- [INDIRECT_PROMPT_INJECTION]: The skill is designed to process and compile LaTeX documents, which serves as a significant attack surface for indirect prompt injection. LaTeX documents can contain malicious macros or commands that attempt to manipulate the AI agent's behavior or exfiltrate data.
- Ingestion points: The skill accepts and processes LaTeX source code for academic papers, equations, and presentations (SKILL.md).
- Boundary markers: The instructions do not specify the use of delimiters or provide the agent with guidance to ignore instructions embedded within the processed LaTeX source.
- Capability inventory: The underlying
latexdependency allows for file system interactions and, depending on configuration, command execution. - Sanitization: There is no evidence of input sanitization or instructions to use safety flags during compilation.
- [DYNAMIC_EXECUTION]: The skill involves the runtime compilation of LaTeX documents. LaTeX is a powerful language that can perform complex operations, including reading local files (e.g., via
\input) or executing shell commands (e.g., via\write18). If the compilation environment is not strictly sandboxed, this poses a risk of unauthorized system access. - [EXTERNAL_DOWNLOADS]: The skill documents a dependency on the
latexsystem package and references theinbharatai/claude-skillsrepository on GitHub for its collection context.
