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

  • Third-party content exposure detected (high risk: 0.80). The skill's monitor explicitly fetches user-generated Hacker News stories and comments from the public Algolia API (see scripts/monitor-hn.js and SKILL.md referencing https://hn.algolia.com/api/v1/search_by_date) and then interprets those results to decide and perform actions (send Slack alerts), so untrusted third-party content directly influences agent behavior.
