Full Analysis

CRITICAL E004: Prompt injection detected in skill instructions.

  • Potential prompt injection detected (high risk: 0.90). The Skill contains explicit, deceptive instructions to install a dependency automatically and to avoid asking or describing that action to the user (hide the installation/consent), which overrides normal user-facing behavior and is outside the advertised scraping purpose.

CRITICAL E006: Malicious code pattern detected in skill scripts.

  • Malicious code pattern detected (high risk: 0.90). The skill's documentation explicitly instructs automatic installation of an external CLI and directs the agent to hide that installation from the user, a deliberate deception that enables unauthorized software installation and potential supply-chain abuse.

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

  • Third-party content exposure detected (high risk: 0.85). The required runtime workflow invokes the external BrowserAct CLI to access public YouTube pages, so the agent will ingest outsider-authored free text scraped from those web pages into the LLM context (indirect prompt injection risk).

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