Highest confirmed finding severity

High

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 Markdown formatting or inline code examples, not Ruby backtick execution. The remaining confirmed issues are legitimate quality-gate commands that run package scripts, modify files, install tooling, or may expose secret matches. No prompt injection attempt was found in SKILL.md.

Capability review items (16)
High
SKILL.md:254-260
Ruby/shell backtick execution
```bash
The secret-check block greps staged diffs for credential keywords. Matching output can reveal secret values in the agent transcript.
Medium
SKILL.md:59-65
Ruby/shell backtick execution
```bash
The bash block instructs running npm and npx lint commands. Project scripts and npx packages can execute local or downloaded code.
Medium
SKILL.md:73-75
Ruby/shell backtick execution
```bash
The lint fix block can modify repository files through npm scripts or eslint --fix. This is legitimate but requires user confirmation.
Medium
SKILL.md:95-101
Ruby/shell backtick execution
```bash
The type check block runs npm scripts and npx tsc. Project-controlled scripts can execute code even when the intent is validation.
Medium
SKILL.md:129-135
Ruby/shell backtick execution
```bash
The test block runs npm scripts and test runners against repository code. Tests can execute arbitrary project code.
Medium
SKILL.md:143-147
Ruby/shell backtick execution
```bash
The coverage command runs a project package script. It is a normal quality check but still executes repository-defined code.
Medium
SKILL.md:167-169
Ruby/shell backtick execution
```bash
The build command runs a project package script. Build scripts can execute arbitrary local code during validation.
Medium
SKILL.md:176-179
Ruby/shell backtick execution
```bash
The cleanup block deletes build directories with rm -rf. The target paths are limited, but it is still destructive filesystem action.
Medium
SKILL.md:191-193
Ruby/shell backtick execution
```bash
The audit block runs npm or pnpm audit commands. These commands may contact package registries and disclose dependency metadata.
Medium
SKILL.md:208-212
Ruby/shell backtick execution
```bash
The audit fix block can modify dependency files and includes a force option. This can change the project beyond simple reporting.
Medium
SKILL.md:351-354
Ruby/shell backtick execution
```bash
The Husky setup block installs packages and runs npx initialization. Package installation can fetch and execute third-party tooling.
Medium
SKILL.md:357-365
Ruby/shell backtick execution
```bash
The hook template runs npm scripts automatically during commits. This is expected for quality gates but executes project-controlled commands.
Medium
SKILL.md:396
Ruby/shell backtick execution
- **Lint errors**: Run `eslint --fix` or `biome check --apply`
The lint recovery guidance recommends fix commands that can rewrite source files. File-modifying commands need explicit user approval.
Medium
SKILL.md:397-398
Ruby/shell backtick execution
- **Format errors**: Run `prettier --write`
The format recovery guidance recommends a write command. It can modify repository files, so confirmation is required.
Medium
SKILL.md:398-406
Ruby/shell backtick execution
- **Security vulnerabilities**: Run `npm audit fix`
The security recovery guidance recommends npm audit fix. It can alter dependency versions and lockfiles.
Medium
SKILL.md:406-409
Ruby/shell backtick execution
```bash
The bypass example uses git commit --no-verify, which disables hook enforcement. The caution text reduces risk but does not remove it.

Risk findings

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

Confirmed security concerns (1)

RISK-001 High
SKILL.md:253-259
Secret Values May Be Exposed in Diff Output
The skill recommends grepping staged diffs for API keys, secrets, passwords, and tokens. Matching lines can reveal secret values to the agent transcript or logs.
The command directly scans staged diff content for secret keywords and would output matching lines. The purpose is protective, but the output can expose sensitive values.

Remediation

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

  1. FIX-001
    High
    Secret searches may print matched secret values into model context.
    Use redacted secret scanning output. Report only file names, line numbers, and match types, not secret values.
  2. FIX-002
    Medium
    Project scripts and package manager commands can execute repository code.
    Require user confirmation before npm, pnpm, npx, build, test, and install commands. Show the exact command first.
  3. FIX-003
    Medium
    Automatic fix and cleanup commands can modify or delete files.
    Run non-mutating checks by default. Ask before fix commands, audit fixes, cleanup commands, or package installation.
  4. FIX-004
    Low
    The hook bypass example can normalize skipping quality checks.
    Limit no-verify guidance to emergencies. Require an explicit user request before suggesting it.
