3 findings: 2 critical severity, 1 medium severity. Installing this skill is not recommended: please review these findings carefully if you do intend to do so.

Critical

E004: Prompt injection detected in skill instructions.

What this means

Detected a prompt injection in the skill instructions. The skill contains hidden or deceptive instructions that fall outside its stated purpose and attempt to override the agent’s safety guidelines or intended behavior.

Why it was flagged

The skill includes an explicit "OP Profile Block" that instructs copying an OP_SERVICE_ACCOUNT_TOKEN from a remote host into the local profile (commands to fetch and append a secret), which is outside the stated SSH-diagnostic purpose and effectively guides exfiltration of a secret.

Critical

E006: Malicious code pattern detected in skill scripts.

What this means

Detected high-risk code patterns in the skill content — including its prompts, tool definitions, and resources — such as data exfiltration, backdoors, remote code execution, credential theft, system compromise, supply chain attacks, and obfuscation techniques.

Why it was flagged

The guide contains explicit steps to retrieve and copy an OP_SERVICE_ACCOUNT_TOKEN from a remote host into a local profile and to enable remote SSH, which can be used to steal credentials and enable remote access.

Medium

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 explicitly instructs the agent to run multiple sudo commands that change system settings (enable Remote Login, restart sshd, kill processes, modify firewall rules) and to append sensitive tokens to ~/.profile, which requires elevated privileges and modifies the machine state.
