Use two-stage process with (1) section outlines with key points using research-lookup then (2) convert to flowing prose.

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). The SKILL.md explicitly requires using the research-lookup skill as part of the required two-stage workflow (e.g., "Stage 1: Create Section Outlines — 1. Use the research-lookup skill to gather relevant literature and data"), which clearly instructs the agent to fetch and ingest open/public third‑party content that will be read and used to drive outlines and subsequent writing actions, creating a pathway for indirect prompt injection.
