open-knowledge-write-skill

Use when the user wants to create, author, write, or design a new Agent Skill (a SKILL.md) — for OpenKnowledge or for their editors — including requests like 'help me write a skill', 'make a skill that…', 'turn this workflow into a skill', or improving an existing skill's triggering and discipline. Also use when capturing reusable agent guidance that should live as an installable skill rather than a one-off prompt. Covers choosing scope (project vs global), authoring inside a plugin or skills-distribution repo (write in the repo's own layout, never install), the SKILL.md frontmatter contract, progressive-disclosure structure, evaluating the skill, and installing it into the user's editors.

Low-risk findings.

2 low severity findings. Worth noting, but not necessarily harmful.

Low

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

The runtime workflow described in SKILL.md uses OpenKnowledge MCP verbs like `skills({ query })`, `import({ source, ... })`, and `skills({ name, file })` to read and ingest marketplace/skills content that may originate from outsider-authored submissions.

Low

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 SKILL.md explicitly shows a runtime import call using a remote URL import({ source: "https://www.skills.sh/<owner>/<repo>/<skill>", ... }), which would fetch remote skill content that directly controls agent instructions.
