🔒 Containment
Level: maximum
Required:
- SANDBOX_CONTAINER: Code execution capability
Recommended:
- LOG_ACTIONS: Audit trail for all actions
⚡ Risks
Pipe-to-shell pattern detected (curl|bash) in: SKILL.md, README.md critical
Mitigation: Do not execute. Review source for malicious intent.
Unauthorized tool use: INSTRUCTED_BINARY_INSTALL, INSTRUCTED_GIT_CLONE_AND_BUILD high
Mitigation: Avoid instructing agents to install arbitrary binaries; bundle dependencies or use sandboxed environments
Command injection risk: TIRITH_DOTFILE_OVERWRITE high
Social engineering indicators: SOCIAL_ENG_VAGUE_DESCRIPTION low
Mitigation: Provide clear, detailed description of skill functionality
