Full Analysis
  • [INDIRECT_PROMPT_INJECTION]: The skill processes and displays external telemetry data (OpenTelemetry spans) retrieved from PostHog which could theoretically contain adversarial content.
  • Ingestion points: The scripts print_summary.py, print_timeline.py, extract_span.py, and search_spans.py read JSON data files generated by PostHog tools.
  • Boundary markers: There are no explicit instructions or delimiters used to warn the agent to ignore embedded instructions within span names, attribute values, or error messages.
  • Capability inventory: The skill is restricted to reading, parsing, and printing the trace data; it does not perform network exfiltration or filesystem writes.
  • Sanitization: Trace attributes and operation names are displayed directly as text, providing a potential surface for injection if the data contains malicious payloads.
  • [COMMAND_EXECUTION]: The skill workflow involves executing local Python scripts included in its package to analyze data.
  • Evidence: The skill instructs the agent to run python3 commands on scripts such as scripts/print_summary.py using persisted JSON files as input.
  • Input parameters like SPAN and SEARCH are passed to these scripts via environment variables, which the agent sets based on user queries.
