Audited by Gen Agent Trust Hub on Apr 26, 2026
Risk Level: SAFE
Full Analysis
- [SAFE]: No security issues detected. The skill is a defensive utility that follows security best practices by implementing static analysis and a structured human-in-the-loop review process for external assets.
- [PROMPT_INJECTION]: The skill possesses a surface for indirect prompt injection as its primary function is to ingest and process untrusted third-party skill content. This is an inherent characteristic of the skill's purpose and is mitigated by clear instructions for human verification and a strict decision framework.
- Ingestion points: The agent is instructed to read the
SKILL.mdand referenced files from external candidate directories (e.g., in the 'Audit Workflow' section ofSKILL.md). - Boundary markers: The skill relies on human oversight and an 'Outcome Category' decision framework rather than automated execution of external instructions, though no technical delimiters are explicitly provided in the prompt logic.
- Capability inventory: Capabilities include read-only file access and standard platform CLI operations including
npx,uv, andwagentsfor auditing and validation purposes. - Sanitization: The provided
scripts/audit_external_skill.pyscript performs read-only regex matching on content and specifically avoids executing or evaluating candidate code.
