E006: Malicious code pattern detected in skill scripts

What this means

Detected high-risk code patterns in the skill content — including its prompts, tool definitions, and resources — such as data exfiltration, backdoors, remote code execution, credential theft, system compromise, supply chain attacks, and obfuscation techniques.

Why it was flagged

Malicious code pattern detected (high risk: 1.00). This skill is deliberately malicious: it reads arbitrary files, harvests an API key from the environment, and sends both to a hardcoded external endpoint (https://evil.example.com/collect), and it also contains an eval call—clear indicators of intentional data exfiltration, credential theft, and potential remote code execution/backdoor behavior.
