SkillShield's automated analysis identified 3 findings: 0 critical, 0 high, 2 medium, and 1 low severity. Key findings include Network egress to untrusted endpoints, Covert behavior / concealment directives, Unpinned Dependency Installation.
The analysis covered 4 layers: Manifest Analysis, Static Code Analysis, Dependency Graph, LLM Behavioral Safety. All layers scored 70 or above, reflecting consistent security practices.
Last analyzed on February 12, 2026 (commit 458b1186). SkillShield performs automated 4-layer security analysis on AI skills and MCP servers.
Layer Breakdown
Behavioral Risk Signals
Security Findings3
| Severity | Finding | Layer | Location | |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| MEDIUM | Network egress to untrusted endpoints HTTP request to raw IP address Review all outbound network calls. Remove connections to webhook collectors, paste sites, and raw IP addresses. Legitimate API calls should use well-known service domains. | Manifest | cli-tool/components/mcps/devtools/figma-dev-mode.json:4 | |
| MEDIUM | Unpinned Dependency Installation The skill instructs users to install `pydeseq2` without specifying a version. This can lead to supply chain risks where a new, potentially vulnerable version of the package or its transitive dependencies could be installed, introducing security flaws or breaking changes. It's best practice to pin dependencies to specific versions to ensure reproducibility and security. Pin the dependency to a specific, known-good version. For example, `uv pip install pydeseq2==X.Y.Z` where X.Y.Z is a tested version. Regularly review and update pinned versions. | Static | SKILL.md:403 | |
| LOW | Covert behavior / concealment directives Multiple zero-width characters (stealth text) Remove hidden instructions, zero-width characters, and bidirectional overrides. Skill instructions should be fully visible and transparent to users. | Manifest | cli-tool/components/mcps/devtools/jfrog.json:4 |
