High

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

The skill includes code examples that directly assign Entrez.email and Entrez.api_key string literals (e.g., Entrez.api_key = "your_api_key_here"), which encourages embedding user API keys/credentials verbatim into generated code or commands, creating a high exfiltration risk.
