Full Analysis
- [CREDENTIALS_UNSAFE]: The documentation in
SKILL.md(Pattern 1) explicitly demonstrates an unsafe practice by sending a clear-text password to an SSH session using thetmx skcommand. - [COMMAND_EXECUTION]: The skill requires or suggests the use of elevated privileges via
sudo apt install tmuxinreferences/setup.md. Additionally, it executes arbitrary, user-defined shell commands within persistent sessions usingtmx createandtmx run. - [EXTERNAL_DOWNLOADS]: The skill recommends installing
psmuxfrom an unverified third-party GitHub repository (marlocarlo/psmux) via manual downloads,scoop, orcargo. It also refers to a Python CLI tool (tmx) fromagent-sommelier-cli, which is not a verified service. - [PROMPT_INJECTION]: The skill is vulnerable to Indirect Prompt Injection through the
tmx rcommand which reads the full scrollback/output of a session. If a remote server or a local process generates output containing malicious instructions, the agent may interpret and execute them. - Ingestion points:
tmx r <name>inSKILL.mdreads output from potentially untrusted terminal sessions. - Boundary markers: None identified; output is read directly into the agent context.
- Capability inventory: The skill can execute shell commands, manage files, and establish SSH connections.
- Sanitization: No evidence of output sanitization or filtering before processing session data.
