Highest confirmed finding severity

Critical

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.

The static external-command and weak-cryptography findings are false positives. However, the skill contains prompt-control language that instructs the assistant to override normal task flow, invoke tools before any response, follow the skill directly, and avoid reading skill files. This is a prompt injection risk and should block publication.

Confirmed security concerns (1)

RISK-001 Critical
SKILL.md:6-16SKILL.md:22-24SKILL.md:50-65
Prompt Injection Attempt Detected
The skill states that assistants ABSOLUTELY MUST invoke a skill, have no choice, must do so before any response, and should follow loaded skill content directly. It also says never to use the Read tool on skill files. This attempts to override platform and evaluator instructions, including security review behavior.
The file directly instructs the assistant to treat the skill as mandatory and to avoid normal file-reading workflow. This is clear evidence of prompt-control behavior rather than an accidental phrase.

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 (2)
Low
SKILL.md:16SKILL.md:26-46
Static External Command Findings Dismissed
The line 16 finding refers to a named Skill tool, not shell execution. The line 26 finding is a Graphviz dot diagram in a fenced block, not executable Ruby or shell code.
The referenced content is Markdown documentation and a diagram. No shell command, Ruby backtick execution, or executable script is present.
Low
SKILL.md:3SKILL.md:72
Static Weak Cryptography Findings Dismissed
The reported weak-cryptography lines contain descriptive metadata and a priority list. No cryptographic algorithm, hash function, encryption call, or security-sensitive implementation is present.
The flagged lines do not mention or implement MD5, SHA-1, DES, RC4, or any other weak cryptographic primitive. The signal appears to be a keyword collision.
