W011: 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 retrieves bibliographic metadata (titles and abstracts) from PubMed via public search queries and API calls; although PubMed content is public, it is indexed and searched rather than delivered via a monitored inbound feed or direct submission channel, placing it under low-risk search results.
