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 command findings are mostly false positives because they appear inside GitLab CI YAML examples, not executable skill code. No prompt injection or malicious data exfiltration was found, but some examples recommend insecure deployment practices that require user review.

Capability review items (5)
Medium
Insecure Kubernetes TLS Verification in Example
The deployment template sets kubectl with --insecure-skip-tls-verify=true. Users who copy this pattern could accept spoofed Kubernetes API servers.
The insecure TLS flag is explicit in a deployment example. It is documentation rather than executable skill code, so the risk depends on user adoption.
Medium
Docker Registry Password Passed on Command Line
The Docker login example passes $CI_REGISTRY_PASSWORD with -p. This can expose secrets through process listings or logs in some CI environments.
The password flag is clearly shown in the sample. GitLab masking reduces some exposure, but safer stdin-based login should be recommended.
Medium
Terraform Auto-Approve Deployment Pattern
The Terraform apply job uses -auto-approve. A manual gate lowers risk, but copied pipelines could apply infrastructure changes without review.
The command is real and can be risky in infrastructure pipelines. Context includes a manual trigger, so this is a moderate configuration concern.
Low
Static Command Execution Matches Are CI Examples
The external command findings occur inside fenced YAML examples. They are not executed by the skill and show ordinary CI job commands.
Every command match is within Markdown code fences for GitLab CI configuration. No repository script or runtime hook executes these commands.
Low
Hardcoded URLs Are Placeholder Environment URLs
The hardcoded URLs use example.com hostnames for GitLab environment metadata. No outbound request logic or data exfiltration was found.
The URLs are reserved example domains used as deployment labels. They are not called by any executable skill code.

Risk findings

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

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)
Low
Weak Cryptography Static Matches Are Lexical False Positives
The weak cryptography detections map to descriptive text and related skill names. No cryptographic algorithm use was present.
The referenced lines contain GitLab CI wording and a related skill name. I found no MD5, SHA1, DES, RC4, or similar algorithm usage.

Verify and export

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