Security Findings1

Severity	Finding	Layer	Location
INFO	Reliance on external MCP system introduces supply chain risk The skill explicitly requires and relies on the 'rube' Managed Control Plane (MCP) system, as indicated in the manifest (`requires: {"mcp": ["rube"]}`) and throughout the `SKILL.md` documentation. This system is hosted externally at `rube.app` and `composio.dev`. While this is the intended functionality, it introduces a supply chain risk. The security of this skill is dependent on the security posture of the Rube MCP infrastructure and the Composio platform. Compromise of these external services or vulnerabilities within their tools could impact the security and integrity of operations performed by this skill. Acknowledge and monitor the security posture of external dependencies like Rube MCP and Composio. Ensure that the MCP provider has robust security practices and incident response. Consider implementing additional checks or sandboxing for operations performed via external MCPs, especially when handling sensitive data or critical actions.	Static	SKILL.md:1
