Fix and improve this skill with Tessl
tessl review fix ./professor-synapse-claude/SKILL.mdW011: 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
Outsider-authored free text enters the runtime workflow via the user’s task phrase that `scripts/summon.py` uses to recall/assemble the boot package (including “Recalled context” from `scripts/memory.py brief/recall`), and the boot package then causes the summoned agent to process that recalled text.
W012: Unverifiable external dependency detected (runtime URL that controls agent).
What this means
The skill fetches instructions or code from an external URL at runtime, and the fetched content directly controls the agent’s prompts or executes code. This dynamic dependency allows the external source to modify the agent’s behavior without any changes to the skill itself.
Why it was flagged
The skill includes a runtime update mechanism (scripts/update.sh / documented curl commands) that explicitly fetches the canonical repo tarball from codeload.github.com (e.g. "https://codeload.github.com/ProfSynapse/Professor-Synapse/tar.gz/$REF") and also queries the release endpoint ("https://github.com/ProfSynapse/Professor-Synapse/releases/latest"), and the fetched repo contains SKILL.md and agent files that directly control agent personas/prompts — so remote content fetched at runtime can change the instructions the agent will use.
