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.

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

Static analysis reported many external command, network, filesystem, and weak cryptography patterns. Review found the command and weak cryptography alerts are documentation or biomedical-text false positives, while the Python helper does intentionally make ClinPGx API requests and can write cache or CSV files. No prompt injection, credential access, obfuscation, or malicious exfiltration intent was found.

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.

Intentional External API Requests

The helper script and documentation send queries to the public ClinPGx API. This is core functionality and not malicious by itself, but users should expect network traffic containing queried genes, drugs, alleles, or variants.

Direct requests.get calls and a hardcoded ClinPGx base URL confirm network access. Context shows the traffic is expected database querying, not credential or data exfiltration.

Medium

scripts/query_clinpgx.py:81-106 scripts/query_clinpgx.py:374-400 SKILL.md:468-485

Caller-Controlled Cache and Export File Writes

The helper can write cached JSON data and optional CSV exports to caller-provided paths. This supports normal analysis workflows, but careless path handling could overwrite local files if untrusted paths are passed in.

The file writes are explicit and semantically tied to caching and exports. Risk depends on how callers choose paths, so the concern is moderate rather than a confirmed exploit.

Low

SKILL.md:36-38 references/api_reference.md:49-54

Documentation Command Examples Flagged as Execution

The external command findings are primarily Markdown fenced examples such as package installation and curl requests. They are instructions for users, not code that the skill executes automatically.

The flagged lines are inside Markdown code fences. No subprocess, os.system, shell spawn, or backtick execution was found in the executable Python script.

Risk findings

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

No confirmed security findings were recorded for this completed audit.

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 (1)

Weak Cryptography Alerts Are False Positives

The blocker findings map to clinical evidence labels, HTTP status examples, rsID text, or pharmacogenomics prose. No hashing, encryption, or cryptographic API usage was found at those locations.

Reviewed locations contain API response descriptions, evidence levels, and variant terminology. They do not contain MD5, SHA1, DES, RC4, or similar weak cryptographic operations.

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