Security
1 high severity finding. You should review these findings carefully before considering using this skill.
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.
The skill contains examples that instruct embedding API keys and credential secrets directly into CLI commands/flags and JSON payloads (e.g., --apiKey, config set-api-key, credential create --data), which would require an LLM to include secret values verbatim in generated output.
