Installation context

Historical evidence

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

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

Most static hits are false positives caused by Markdown inline code for Notion tools and reference paths. The real risks are setup instructions that can change Codex MCP configuration, connect to a hardcoded Notion endpoint, and start OAuth login. No prompt injection or data exfiltration intent was found.

Capability review items (4)
Medium
SKILL.md:22
Ruby/shell backtick execution
- `codex mcp add notion --url https://mcp.notion.com/mcp`
The line instructs running a Codex command that adds a remote Notion MCP endpoint to local configuration. The command is fixed, but it is a real external command risk.
Medium
SKILL.md:24
Ruby/shell backtick execution
- Set `[features].rmcp_client = true` in `config.toml` **or** run `codex --enable rmcp_client`
The line instructs enabling the remote MCP client through configuration or a Codex CLI flag. This changes runtime behavior in the user environment.
Medium
SKILL.md:26
Ruby/shell backtick execution
- `codex mcp login notion`
The line instructs running Codex MCP login, which starts an OAuth flow for Notion access. It is legitimate setup but requires explicit user consent.
Low
SKILL.md:22
Hardcoded URL
- `codex mcp add notion --url https://mcp.notion.com/mcp`
The hardcoded URL points to the Notion MCP service and is part of the intended integration. It is still an external network endpoint that should be disclosed.

Risk findings

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

Confirmed security concerns (1)

RISK-001 Medium
SKILL.md:20-26
MCP Setup Can Modify User Configuration
The workflow tells the agent to set up Notion MCP when a connection fails, including adding a remote MCP URL and starting OAuth login. This can change local Codex configuration and grant Notion access, so it should require explicit user approval.
Lines 20-26 explicitly describe setup steps for adding Notion MCP, enabling remote MCP, and logging in. The intent is legitimate integration setup, but the configuration and OAuth effects are clear.

Remediation

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

  1. FIX-001
    Medium
    Implicit MCP setup command execution
    Require explicit user approval before running Codex MCP setup commands, enabling remote MCP, or starting Notion OAuth login.
  2. FIX-002
    Low
    Remote Notion endpoint dependency
    Document why the Notion MCP endpoint is required and tell users to verify the endpoint and requested permissions before connecting.
  3. FIX-003
    Low
    Referenced support folders may be missing
    Include the referenced templates and examples in the package, or remove those references from the skill instructions.
