W011: Third-party content exposure detected (indirect prompt injection risk)
What this means
The skill exposes the agent to untrusted, user-generated content from public third-party sources, creating a risk of indirect prompt injection. This includes browsing arbitrary URLs, reading social media posts or forum comments, and analyzing content from unknown websites.
Why it was flagged
Third-party content exposure detected (high risk: 0.80). This skill explicitly fetches and ingests public, user-generated preprint content from the bioRxiv API and website (see SKILL.md and scripts/biorxiv_search.py: BASE_URL "https://api.biorxiv.org" and download_pdf using "https://www.biorxiv.org/content/..."), and those abstracts/metadata/PDFs are read and used to drive searches, filtering, downloads and downstream actions, so untrusted third‑party content could indirectly influence agent behavior.
