codeql
Scans a codebase for security vulnerabilities using CodeQL's interprocedural data flow and taint tracking analysis. Triggers on "run codeql", "codeql scan", "build codeql database", "SAST scan", "taint analysis", "dataflow analysis", or "find vulnerabilities in this repo". Covers Python, JavaScript/TypeScript, Go, Java/Kotlin, C/C++, C#, Ruby, and Swift. Supports "run all" (security-and-quality + security-experimental) and "important only" (high-precision) scan modes, and creates data extension models for project-specific sources and sinks. For fast single-file pattern matching, or when no build is available for a compiled language, use the semgrep skill; to parse SARIF that already exists rather than produce it, use the sarif-parsing skill.

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 skill’s runtime reads user/outsider-controlled files within the target codebase—e.g., in `create-data-extensions` it uses `fd`/`rg`/`grep` to search and then processes model-pack/YAML content and writes it into extension artifacts before analysis.
