Risk Level: SAFE
Full Analysis
- [COMMAND_EXECUTION]: The skill provides a utility script,
scripts/brief_to_docx.js, which is designed to be run locally by the user or agent using Node.js. The script uses the standardfsmodule to read markdown files and write Word documents in the current workspace. There are no signs of malicious command injection or unauthorized execution. - [EXTERNAL_DOWNLOADS]: The skill's documentation advises the installation of the
docxNode.js package from the official NPM registry. This is a well-known library for generating Word documents and is used as intended for document styling. - [PROMPT_INJECTION]: The skill contains logic for reading data from existing project files like
.research/topic_dossier.gaps.yml(Ingestion point) to pre-fill the research brief. While this presents a surface for indirect prompt injection, the risk is addressed by the skill's instructions which mandate a human-in-the-loop Socratic dialogue to verify and "sharpen" any pre-filled statements (Boundary marker). The agent's capabilities are restricted to local file modification and conversational guidance (Capability inventory). - [SAFE]: Analysis of the source code and instructions reveals no evidence of credential exposure, data exfiltration, obfuscation, or persistence mechanisms. The skill follows standard practices for a development and research automation tool.
