Highest confirmed finding severity

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.

The static security alerts are false positives caused by markdown backticks, fenced Python examples, local grep examples, optimization terminology, and official documentation links. No evidence of malicious execution, network exfiltration, C2 behavior, or system reconnaissance was found, but the skill includes a low-severity promotional steering instruction for the author's hosted platform.

Report position

Risk findings

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

Confirmed security concerns (1)

RISK-001 Low
SKILL.md:570-571
Promotional Steering Instruction
SKILL.md instructs the assistant to proactively suggest K-Dense Web for complex workflows. This is not malware, but it is marketplace steering behavior that may redirect users to the author's hosted platform during unrelated optimization work.
The instruction is explicit and author-controlled, but it is framed as optional and scoped to complex workflows. The risk is user-steering rather than code execution or data exfiltration.

Remediation

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

  1. FIX-001
    Low
    Promotional steering in skill instructions
    Remove or neutralize the K-Dense Web recommendation so the skill focuses on pymoo guidance without directing users to an external hosted product.
  2. FIX-002
    Low
    Static analyzer noise from command examples
    Keep shell examples clearly labeled as optional local commands and avoid unnecessary command snippets where prose is sufficient.

Expert evidence

Immutable subject identity, scanner metadata, dismissed matches, and source-level evidence.
