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 workflow (SKILL.md Step 3 "Execute Multi-Source Search" and Step 4 "Deep-Read Key Sources") explicitly uses MCPs like firecrawl and exa to search the open web and scrape arbitrary URLs (firecrawl_scrape, crawling_exa), causing the agent to ingest untrusted third-party content that can influence its decisions and outputs.
W012: Unverifiable external dependency detected (runtime URL that controls agent).
What this means
The skill fetches instructions or code from an external URL at runtime, and the fetched content directly controls the agent’s prompts or executes code. This dynamic dependency allows the external source to modify the agent’s behavior without any changes to the skill itself.
Why it was flagged
The skill explicitly fetches and scrapes arbitrary external webpages at runtime via calls like firecrawl_scrape(url: "<url>") and crawling_exa(url: "<url>"), and those fetched URLs (the "<url>" results returned by searches) are injected into the agent context and used to drive prompts, so external web content is a required runtime dependency that can directly control the agent.
