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 instructs the agent to create and modify system-wide files and schedules (writing to /var/backups, /opt, /etc/backup.key, installing cron entries for the postgres user, and running delete operations), which require elevated privileges and would change the host system state.
