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.
The agent evaluates open-source packages using the Snyk package health check tool and user-provided candidate names, which are selected or searched by the agent or user rather than flowing from an unvetted monitored channel.
