Full Analysis
- [EXTERNAL_DOWNLOADS]: The skill provides instructions to download and install the
openalex-pp-clibinary usingnpxfrom the@mvanhorn/printing-press-librarypackage and viago installfrom thegithub.com/mvanhorn/printing-press-libraryrepository. These resources are part of the vendor's established infrastructure. - [COMMAND_EXECUTION]: The skill invokes the
openalex-pp-clitool through theBashtool to perform research graph retrieval, metadata searching, and tool diagnostics. - [DATA_EXFILTRATION]: The CLI tool supports a
--deliver webhook:<url>flag, which allows the output of search and analysis commands to be POSTed directly to external network endpoints. - [INDIRECT_PROMPT_INJECTION]: The skill ingests untrusted scholarly data (titles, abstracts, and author information) from the OpenAlex API, creating an attack surface where malicious content in papers could influence agent behavior.
- Ingestion points: Scholarly work records, author profiles, and metadata returned by the OpenAlex API (SKILL.md).
- Boundary markers: Absent; the instructions do not specify delimiters or warnings to ignore instructions that might be embedded in the retrieved scholarly content.
- Capability inventory: Subprocess execution of the
openalex-pp-clibinary, file system writing via the--deliver fileflag, and network exfiltration via the--deliver webhookflag (SKILL.md). - Sanitization: Absent; external data is incorporated into the agent's context without explicit filtering or sanitization of embedded natural language instructions.
