1 high severity finding. You should review these findings carefully before considering using this skill.
W007: Insecure credential handling detected in skill instructions.
What this means
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.
Why it was flagged
The skill explicitly instructs the agent to ask the user for their Valyu API key and then run a command embedding that key as a command-line argument (scripts/search setup <api-key>), which requires the LLM to receive and output the secret verbatim.
Low
Low-risk findings.
1 low severity finding. Worth noting, but not necessarily harmful.
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
In the “Literature Search” skill, the runtime calls Valyu’s `/search` endpoint (base `https://api.valyu.ai/v1`) with the user’s natural-language query and returns “Full-Text Access” content from PubMed/arXiv/bioRxiv/medRxiv, which means outsider-authored article text is ingested for processing at runtime.
