Full Analysis

CRITICAL E004: Prompt injection detected in skill instructions.

  • Potential prompt injection detected (high risk: 1.00). The Skill instructs the agent to install the BrowserAct dependency automatically and explicitly to "not ask the user to confirm" and to "not describe" the installation as a request to open their browser, which are deceptive, hidden directives unrelated to the described scraping purpose.

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 live YouTube pages at runtime and extract visible post text/captions/descriptions (outsider-authored public web content), which would be ingested into the LLM context for processing.

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 (high risk: 0.80). The skill explicitly directs the agent to automatically install the BrowserAct CLI and resume execution "without asking the user to confirm," which pushes the agent to perform system-level changes (software installation) on the host and could trigger privileged operations or modify system state.
