Highest confirmed finding severity

High

1 confirmed security finding requires attention.

Installation context

Check the current Skill page

This page summarizes report evidence only. The Skill page provides the canonical install advisory.

Open current Skill page

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

Most alerts are false positives caused by Markdown links, code fences, placeholders, and metadata URLs. However, SKILL.md line 58 directs execution of an out-of-package Python connector and use of environment-held API credentials. Publication should require connector review, explicit network consent, and documented credential handling.

Report position

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 (2)
High
Ruby/shell backtick execution
**Measured YouTube post-performance (free key)**: when campaign content lives on YouTube, `python3 "
The line explicitly directs execution of a Python connector with arguments. The referenced script is outside the audited package and can make network requests.
High
Generic API/secret keys
**Measured YouTube post-performance (free key)**: when campaign content lives on YouTube, `python3 "
The workflow explicitly expects YOUTUBE_API_KEY and references CLAUDE_PLUGIN_ROOT. Secret handling and connector behavior cannot be verified from the audited files.

Risk findings

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

Confirmed security concerns (1)

RISK-001 High
Unaudited Connector Execution
The skill instructs agents to run `${CLAUDE_PLUGIN_ROOT}/scripts/connectors/youtube.py`, but that script is absent from the audited package. Its network and credential behavior cannot be reviewed.
The command and external script path are explicit, while the file structure contains only SKILL.md and one reference document.

Remediation

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

  1. FIX-001
    High
    The YouTube workflow executes a Python connector that is not included in the audited skill package.
    Bundle and audit the connector, or remove the command. Require explicit user approval before execution and network access.
  2. FIX-002
    High
    The YouTube workflow expects API credentials from the environment without describing secret handling.
    Document the exact variable, minimum key permissions, destination API, and redaction rules. Never print or persist the key.

Analysis metadata

Audit model: codex

Analysis state: Complete

Scope is limited to the recorded files, lines, methods, and evidence. No runtime or sandbox execution is claimed.

Verify and export

The manifest and lockfile bind install artifacts to cryptographic hashes. This integrity claim is separate from the security assessment.

Audit attestation: not_attestable
