Highest confirmed finding severity

1 confirmed security finding requires attention.

Installation context

Historical evidence

This report may not describe the currently installable artifact. Open the current Skill page for install guidance.

Open current Skill page

This report does not block or authorize the manifest or ZIP.

Most static alerts are false positives caused by Markdown code formatting and relative links to repository documentation. The skill also recommends an unaudited Python helper and can persist test summaries after consent, so those behaviors remain disclosed.

Limitations

This report does not claim runtime or sandbox execution and does not prove the absence of side effects.

Evidence chain

Follow the evidence from source binding to the install contract. Available evidence supports verification; it is not a safety guarantee.

Capability review items (1)
Medium
SKILL.md:49
Ruby/shell backtick execution
> **Statistical facts (keyless):** `python3 "${CLAUDE_PLUGIN_ROOT}/scripts/connectors/experiment.py"
The line explicitly recommends invoking Python on experiment.py through CLAUDE_PLUGIN_ROOT. That helper is outside the two audited files, so its behavior and argument handling cannot be verified here.

Risk findings

Confirmed security concerns are separated from items that still need review.

Confirmed security concerns (1)

RISK-001 Low
SKILL.md:78
Consent-Gated Persistence of Test Data
The skill can save campaign hypotheses, results, guardrails, ownership details, and approved actions to persistent memory after user confirmation.
Line 78 explicitly instructs a dated memory write and names the stored fields. The same line requires asking the user first, which limits the risk.

Remediation

Suggested fixes recorded by this audit. Applying them is the maintainer’s responsibility.

  1. FIX-001
    Medium
    The recommended experiment.py command executes code that is outside the audited skill files.
    Bundle and audit the helper with this skill, pin its integrity, and document its accepted arguments before execution.
  2. FIX-002
    Low
    Saved test summaries may contain campaign performance data and decision details.
    Describe retention and deletion controls, minimize stored fields, and confirm the destination before every write.

Expert evidence

Immutable subject identity, scanner metadata, dismissed matches, and source-level evidence.
