MEDIUM W012: Unverifiable external dependency detected (runtime URL that controls agent).

  • Potentially malicious external URL detected (high risk: 0.70). The skill instructs installing rhino from GitHub via remotes::install_github("Appsilon/rhino") (https://github.com/Appsilon/rhino), which fetches and installs remote code during setup/runtime and thus executes externally sourced code required for the rhino scaffold.
