testland/gremlin-chaos

Configures Gremlin (commercial) for cross-platform chaos engineering (fault injection, resilience testing) - installs the Gremlin agent on Linux / Windows / Kubernetes, picks attack types (resource, network, state, request), chains attacks into Scenarios (chaos experiments), integrates with the Reliability Score for forward-looking metrics. Use when the platform spans multiple environments (bare metal + cloud + serverless) and the team needs a commercial-supported solution per Gremlin's multi-platform support.

Security

2 findings: 1 high severity, 1 medium severity. You should review these findings carefully before considering using this skill.

High

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 instructs users to pass secrets directly on the command line / via helm --set (e.g., --api-token <token>, --set ...teamSecret=<secret>), which requires secret values to be embedded verbatim and risks exfiltration or exposure; (the curl example uses an env var which is fine).

Report incorrect finding
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 instructs installing a host agent using sudo and describes/automates host-level destructive attacks (e.g., shutdown, process killer) and helm/secret creation, which modifies system state and requires elevated privileges.

Low

Low-risk findings.

1 low severity finding. Worth noting, but not necessarily harmful.

Low

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 helm repository URL https://helm.gremlin.com is invoked at runtime (helm repo add / helm install) to fetch and install Gremlin charts/agents (remote code that will execute on target hosts), making it a required runtime dependency that executes remote code.
