W007: Insecure credential handling detected in skill instructions
What this means
The skill handles credentials insecurely by requiring the agent to include secret values verbatim in its generated output. This exposes credentials in the agent’s context and conversation history, creating a risk of data exfiltration.
Why it was flagged
Insecure credential handling detected (high risk: 1.00). The skill's examples instruct embedding API keys, app IDs, and tokens directly as string literals (e.g., esriConfig.apiKey = "YOUR_API_KEY", registerToken({ token: "YOUR_TOKEN" })) and even logging tokens, which encourages the LLM to place secret values verbatim into generated code/output.
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
Potentially malicious external URL detected (high risk: 0.80). The skill includes a runtime CDN script tag that loads and executes remote JavaScript from https://js.arcgis.com/5.0/, which is a required dependency for the CDN usage and therefore fetches and runs remote code at runtime.
