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 running tools as Administrator, dumping raw disks and SPI flash (dd, chipsec), mounting the ESP, and even recommends disabling Secure Boot or test-signing drivers — all actions that require elevated privileges or bypass security mechanisms and can modify/compromise the host state.
