tessl review fix ./scientific-skills/Other/article-format-adjustment/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
The workflow downloads journal template configuration files over HTTP from third-party websites or APIs (such as Overleaf or journal sites) via template_downloader.py without forcing the agent to select a specific URL, exposing the agent to potentially outsider-authored free text content from external web responses.
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 attempts to download journal templates from various hardcoded URLs via urllib/requests during execution, but these external links lack strong first-party provenance or cryptographic verification.
