Confirmed finding summary

No confirmed security findings

The completed audit recorded no confirmed security findings. This is not proof that the Skill has no side effects.

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.

Static analysis reported many high-risk patterns, but review found they are primarily Markdown backticks, documentation links, wildcard text, and relative links rather than executable code. The skill is still medium risk because it directs an authenticated gws CLI to manage Google Drive resources, including uploads, downloads, deletes, permission changes, and shared drive operations.

Limitations

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

Evidence chain

Capability review items (2)
Medium
SKILL.md:70-75SKILL.md:79-89SKILL.md:97-101SKILL.md:113-116
Authenticated Google Drive CLI Can Modify User Data
TRUE_POSITIVE: The skill documents commands for creating, updating, deleting, sharing, uploading, downloading, and exporting Drive resources. This is expected behavior for the skill, but a mistaken or overbroad prompt could alter or expose user Drive data.
The listed API methods clearly include write, delete, permission, upload, download, and export operations. The risk is inherent to the documented purpose, not evidence of malicious intent.
Medium
SKILL.md:18-20SKILL.md:129-137
External Command Execution Through gws CLI
TRUE_POSITIVE: The skill instructs the agent to run gws drive and gws schema commands. The commands are legitimate and bounded to the Google Workspace CLI, but they still execute local binaries and rely on the user's authenticated account.
The command pattern is explicit and semantically aligned with the skill. No shell interpolation or hidden payload was found in the reviewed file.

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.

Static false positives ignored (3)
Low
SKILL.md:16-20SKILL.md:32-38SKILL.md:80-88SKILL.md:120-137
Static Analyzer Flagged Markdown Syntax as Code Risk
FALSE_POSITIVE: The many Ruby backtick, weak cryptography, and reconnaissance findings correspond to Markdown inline code, API method names, links, wildcard MIME text, or ordinary documentation. No Ruby code, weak cryptographic implementation, or reconnaissance command was found.
Review of the cited lines shows Markdown documentation and gws CLI examples, not executable Ruby, cryptographic code, or system reconnaissance logic.
Low
SKILL.md:16SKILL.md:26
Relative Documentation Links Are Not Path Traversal
FALSE_POSITIVE: The path traversal findings refer to relative links pointing to neighboring skill documentation files. They do not read arbitrary files or construct paths from user input.
The cited ../ references are Markdown links or prerequisite documentation references. No filesystem API call or user-controlled path handling is present.
Low
SKILL.md:32-38SKILL.md:47-58SKILL.md:97-116
Google Documentation URLs Are Benign References
FALSE_POSITIVE: The hardcoded URL findings are links to Google Drive API documentation. They do not perform network requests or exfiltrate data by themselves.
The URLs are documentation hyperlinks in Markdown. The reviewed file contains no HTTP client code or suspicious external endpoint.
