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 update check workflow uses WebFetch to read an external version endpoint (https://howborisusesclaudecode.com/api/version), exposing the agent to untrusted external text.

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 instructs the agent to fetch a remote installation script from an unverified third-party domain (`howborisusesclaudecode.com`), which acts as an operational runtime dependency.
