Suggest reviewing before use
Security
1 medium severity finding. This skill can be installed but you should review these findings before use.
W013: Attempt to modify system services in skill instructions.
What this means
The skill prompts the agent to compromise the security or integrity of the user’s machine by modifying system-level services or configurations, such as obtaining elevated privileges, altering startup scripts, or changing system-wide settings.
Why it was flagged
The skill explicitly instructs downloading and installing system-wide MSI packages and invokes elevated installs (Start-Process ... -Verb RunAs / UAC elevation), which requires admin privileges and modifies the machine state.
Low
Low-risk findings.
1 low severity finding. Worth noting, but not necessarily harmful.
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 PowerShell scripts fetch and install MSI binaries at runtime from https://ci.dot.net/public/Runtime/... (e.g., Invoke-WebRequest to https://ci.dot.net/public/Runtime/$version/dotnet-runtime-$version-win-x64.msi and msiexec to run them), which downloads and executes remote code required by the skill.
