This skill should be used when the user asks to "analyze network traffic with Wireshark", "capture packets for troubleshooting", "filter PCAP files", "follow TCP/UDP streams", "detect network anomalies", "investigate suspicious traffic", or "perform protocol analysis". It provides comprehensive techniques for network packet capture, filtering, and analysis using Wireshark.

Security
1 medium severity finding. This skill can be installed but you should review these findings before use.
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.
The skill explicitly requires administrator/root privileges for live packet capture (and references obtaining server private keys), which could push an agent to request or use elevated access to the host and thereby compromise machine state.
Low
Low-risk findings.
1 low severity finding. Worth noting, but not necessarily harmful.
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.
This skill’s required workflow ingests PCAP/PCAPNG contents (Phase 1 “Open PCAP File” and subsequent stream/statistics/security analysis), which may include outsider-authored payloads from arbitrary network traffic the operator didn’t author, and those packet payloads can be rendered as readable text during “Follow > TCP Stream” / “View reconstructed conversation”.
