Full Analysis
- [PROMPT_INJECTION]: The skill implements an 'Evolution Agent' loop that ingests execution traces from
quality_reports/traces/. This creates an indirect prompt injection surface where malicious content within processed traces could attempt to influence the agent's logic to propose insecure modifications to harness rules or permission boundaries. - Ingestion points: Reads
.jsonltrace files fromquality_reports/traces/and.tsvbaselines. - Boundary markers: The instructions do not define specific prompt delimiters for the trace content, though they emphasize evidence-based analysis.
- Capability inventory: Can modify files in
hooks/,rules/,skills/, andagents/directories. - Sanitization: Relies on mandatory human-in-the-loop (HITL) review for all changes as a primary safety mechanism.- [COMMAND_EXECUTION]: The skill facilitates the modification of project source code and configuration files. It specifies a 'Promote' stage where edits are applied to
hooks/,rules/,skills/, andagents/after human approval. This is the primary intended function of the skill for harness optimization.
