protein-sequence-similarity-search
Searches for homologous protein sequences using MMseqs2 (fast, default) or BLAST (comprehensive, fallback). Trigger this whenever the user provides a protein sequence or FASTA file and asks to find homologues, sequence matches, or wants to infer protein function based on sequence similarity, but not when the user wants to infer protein function based on structural similarity.

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
SKILL.md directs the agent to run `scripts/mmseqs2_search.py` / `scripts/uniprot_blast.py`, which fetches results from outsider-controlled public web APIs (ColabFold MMseqs2 API or EBI BLAST REST API) and writes the resulting hit descriptions into the generated `.md` file that is then read into the agent’s LLM context.
