Full Analysis
- [COMMAND_EXECUTION]: The skill is designed to invoke an external binary or wrapper to execute tasks. The instructions provided in
SKILL.mdandreferences/monitoring.mdshow the agent how to run commands with varying levels of authorization, includingworkspace-writecapabilities. - [INDIRECT_PROMPT_INJECTION]: The skill processes arbitrary task descriptions and executes them, creating a surface for indirect prompt injection attacks.
- Ingestion points: Natural language task descriptions passed to the
<launcher> execcommand inSKILL.md. - Boundary markers: The skill suggests using
--sandboxflags (e.g.,read-only) and acceptance verification steps (e.g.,turn.completedevents) to constrain and monitor execution. - Capability inventory: The skill possesses the capability to execute shell commands and modify files within a specified workspace via the external CLI tool.
- Sanitization: The instructions explicitly direct the agent to redact secret values from captures and to redact credentials from process environments.
- [PRIVILEGE_ESCALATION]: The skill includes instructions to use the
--ignore-rulesflag, which is documented to bypass user and project-level execution policy rules (.rulesfiles). While it notes that managed requirements are still honored, instructing the agent to circumvent local security configurations increases the risk profile.
