Full Analysis
  • [REMOTE_CODE_EXECUTION]: The skill's metadata specifies the installation of an external binary via a third-party Homebrew tap (steipete/tap/peekaboo). This binary is executed to perform all skill functions, representing the execution of unverifiable external code.
  • [COMMAND_EXECUTION]: The skill provides a comprehensive suite of commands to control the host system, including:
  • Simulating keyboard input (type, hotkey, press)
  • Mouse and gesture automation (click, drag, move, scroll, swipe)
  • Application and window management (app, window, dock, menu)
  • Executing arbitrary scripts via peekaboo run with JSON payloads.
  • [DATA_EXFILTRATION]: The skill facilitates the capture and potential exposure of sensitive information through multiple vectors:
  • peekaboo image and peekaboo see capture screen content, windows, and menu bars.
  • peekaboo clipboard reads and writes to the system clipboard.
  • peekaboo config manages credentials and model provider settings.
  • The see and image commands support an --analyze flag, which likely sends captured visual data to external LLM providers for processing.
  • [PROMPT_INJECTION]: The skill is susceptible to indirect prompt injection.
  • Ingestion points: Data is ingested from the macOS UI via peekaboo see, peekaboo image, and peekaboo list (SKILL.md).
  • Boundary markers: None present; there are no instructions to the agent to ignore or delimit instructions found within the captured UI data.
  • Capability inventory: Extensive system control capabilities including keystroke injection, file system access via open, and application launching (SKILL.md).
  • Sanitization: No evidence of sanitization or filtering of the text or visual data captured from the screen before it is processed by the agent.
