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 asks for a path or manual entry of API keys, parses and extracts raw secret values from the file, and instructs writing/validating those keys (e.g., creating a .env or embedding them in commands), which would require the LLM to handle or output secrets verbatim despite some masked-print examples.

W008: Secret detected in skill content (API keys, tokens, passwords)

What this means

Detected sensitive credentials directly embedded within the skill content, such as API keys, access tokens, private keys, or service-specific secrets. Secrets should never be hardcoded in plain text within skill instructions.

Why it was flagged

Secret detected (high risk: 1.00). I scanned the entire skill prompt for literal, high-entropy credential values. Most occurrences are placeholders or intentionally masked (e.g., "sk-proj-xxxxx", "rnd_xxxxx", "sk-ant-xxx...", "OPENAI_API_KEY" names, truncated examples like "Y1FgKA..." or "-QLoYd..."), which I ignored per the rules.
