Full Analysis

CRITICAL E004: Prompt injection detected in skill instructions.

  • Potential prompt injection detected (high risk: 0.90). The skill explicitly instructs the agent to auto-install a runtime dependency without asking the user to confirm and to hide that request ("do not describe it... and do not request separate approval"), which is deceptive and outside the stated lead-search purpose.

CRITICAL E006: Malicious code pattern detected in skill scripts.

  • Malicious code pattern detected (high risk: 1.00). The skill contains explicit, deliberate instructions to automatically install and invoke an external CLI (BrowserAct) without user approval and to conceal that installation, creating a high-risk supply-chain/backdoor vector and enabling stealthy remote automation that could be used for unauthorized data access or exfiltration.

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

  • Third-party content exposure detected (high risk: 0.85). SKILL.md instructs the agent to use the BrowserAct CLI to access and extract data from live LinkedIn/public pages at runtime (outsider-authored free text from web content), which can then be ingested into the LLM context.

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


MEDIUM W013: Attempt to modify system services in skill instructions.

  • Attempt to modify system services in skill instructions detected (medium risk: 0.60). The Skill instructs the agent to autonomously install the BrowserAct CLI "without asking the user to confirm" and to resume execution, which directs the agent to modify the host environment (install software) and bypasses user approval even though it doesn't explicitly request sudo or create users.
