E006: Malicious code pattern detected in skill scripts.
What this means
Detected high-risk code patterns in the skill content — including its prompts, tool definitions, and resources — such as data exfiltration, backdoors, remote code execution, credential theft, system compromise, supply chain attacks, and obfuscation techniques.
Why it was flagged
This document contains explicit, actionable instructions and descriptions for building, delivering, and operating malware (trojanized mobile apps, RATs, process hollowing, credential theft, C2/exfiltration), indicating deliberate malicious intent and high risk.
W013: Attempt to modify system services in skill instructions.
What this means
The skill prompts the agent to compromise the security or integrity of the user’s machine by modifying system-level services or configurations, such as obtaining elevated privileges, altering startup scripts, or changing system-wide settings.
Why it was flagged
The skill explicitly instructs the agent to create persistent artifacts (registry Run keys, XDG autostart, macOS LaunchAgents), build and sign malware, activate webcam/microphone and keylogging, and stand up C2/watering-hole infrastructure—actions that modify system state and can require elevated privileges or bypass security controls.
