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
Insecure credential handling detected (high risk: 1.00). The prompt embeds a hard-coded passphrase ("imsg123") used verbatim in command-line options (openssl -passout and security -P), which instructs repeating secrets in output and uses an insecure pattern of passing secrets on the CLI.
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
Attempt to modify system services in skill instructions detected (high risk: 0.90). The skill instructs modifying system/security state—installing an app in /Applications, creating/signing and importing a code-signing cert, adding it to trust, loading a launchd agent, and querying/modifying TCC/keychain entries—actions that alter OS-level security and services.
