Full Analysis

CRITICAL E005: Suspicious download URL detected in skill instructions.

  • Suspicious download URL detected (high risk: 0.70). Several URLs point to non-official, user-controlled registry/JSON hosting endpoints (private.com, api.npoint.io, acme.com, example.com) that could deliver arbitrary files or registry payloads and are therefore higher-risk for malware distribution, while ui.shadcn.com and raw.githubusercontent.com are official/standard documentation/code hosts and are lower risk.

MEDIUM W011: Third-party content exposure detected (indirect prompt injection risk).

  • Third-party content exposure detected (high risk: 0.75). The required workflow instructs the agent to run npx shadcn@latest docs <component> and “fetch the URLs” (and also view/add from registries), which at runtime can ingest outsider-authored free text/code from public web/registry sources into the LLM context.

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