Full Analysis
  • [INDIRECT_PROMPT_INJECTION]: The skill processes transcripts fetched from YouTube, which constitutes untrusted external data. If a video's captions contain malicious instructions, the agent might inadvertently execute them while summarizing or formatting the text.
  • Ingestion points: The output of the scripts/get_transcript.py script is processed by the agent as described in SKILL.md.
  • Boundary markers: There are no explicit instructions for the agent to wrap the external transcript in delimiters or to ignore instructions embedded within the transcript text to prevent hijacking.
  • Capability inventory: The skill executes local Python scripts using uv run in SKILL.md and allows the agent to write the resulting transcript to the local file system as described in 'Step 3: Save if requested'.
  • Sanitization: No sanitization or filtering logic is applied to the transcript content before it is presented to the agent's context.
  • [COMMAND_EXECUTION]: The skill requires the agent to execute a local Python script using the uv package manager to perform its primary function.
  • Evidence: SKILL.md instructs the agent to run uv run .claude/skills/youtube-transcript/scripts/get_transcript.py "VIDEO_URL_OR_ID".
