Highest confirmed finding severity

Medium

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 detections are false positives from documentation examples, JSX template literals, evaluation text, and placeholder CSP domains. I confirmed the replacement install flow in SKILL.md because it can trigger a networked npx install from community-authored instructions. No evidence found of credential exfiltration, malicious network calls, or prompt text that tries to alter this audit.

Capability review items (2)
Medium
Ruby/shell backtick execution
Check if `mcp-app-builder` is available in the skills folder. If not, install it:
This line tells the agent to install a replacement skill if it is not available. In a community skill, that can trigger an unverified external install flow.
Medium
Ruby/shell backtick execution
`npx skills install mcp-use/mcp-use --skill mcp-app-builder`
This line contains an npx skills install command, which can download and execute external package tooling. A community skill should not cause this without explicit user approval.

Risk findings

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

Confirmed security concerns (1)

RISK-001 Medium
Unverified Replacement Skill Installation Redirect
SKILL.md lines 4-7 mark the skill as deprecated, tell the agent to install mcp-app-builder, and provide an npx skills install command. This can steer automated agents into a networked install from community-authored instructions without source pinning or explicit approval.
The redirect and installer command are explicit in the skill metadata block. The risk is supply-chain execution, not direct malware evidence.

Remediation

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

  1. FIX-001
    Medium
    The skill metadata directs agents to install a replacement skill with npx.
    Remove the direct installer command, or require explicit user confirmation with a pinned and verified source before installation.
  2. FIX-002
    Low
    Documentation examples use placeholder external domains and environment variables that trigger security scanners.
    Label examples as placeholders and separate executable setup steps from explanatory reference material.
