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.

All 50 static findings are false positives caused by Markdown code fences, inline code, URLs, arrows, and relative documentation links. No network request, shell execution, reconnaissance, or executable path traversal appears in SKILL.md. A separate medium-risk issue remains because the user-derived save topic is not explicitly sanitized before filename construction.

Risk findings

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

Confirmed security concerns (1)

RISK-001 Medium
Unsanitized Dynamic Save Filename
The save path includes a <topic> placeholder without requiring filename sanitization. A malicious topic could redirect writes outside the intended memory directory.
Both lines define the same dynamic filename pattern, and neither specifies normalization. Exploitation still depends on how the host derives and validates the topic.

Remediation

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

  1. FIX-001
    Medium
    The save filename includes an unspecified <topic> value.
    Normalize the topic to a safe slug and reject separators, dot segments, control characters, and absolute paths before writing.

Expert evidence

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