Trust Assessment
flight-tracker received a trust score of 65/100, placing it in the Caution category. This skill has some security considerations that users should review before deployment.
SkillShield's automated analysis identified 2 findings: 1 critical, 0 high, 1 medium, and 0 low severity. Key findings include Suspicious import: requests, API Key transmitted over unencrypted HTTP.
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 13, 2026 (commit 13146e6a). SkillShield performs automated 4-layer security analysis on AI skills and MCP servers.
Layer Breakdown
Behavioral Risk Signals
Security Findings2
| Severity | Finding | Layer | Location | |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| CRITICAL | API Key transmitted over unencrypted HTTP The skill transmits the `AVIATIONSTACK_API_KEY` over an unencrypted HTTP connection to `http://api.aviationstack.com`. This makes the API key vulnerable to interception by attackers via network eavesdropping, potentially leading to unauthorized use of the API and exposure of user data. The `SKILL.md` explicitly notes "Uses AviationStack free tier (no HTTPS on free plan)", confirming this insecure practice. Upgrade to an AviationStack plan that supports HTTPS for API access. If this is not feasible, consider using an alternative API provider that offers secure (HTTPS) communication for all API interactions, especially when transmitting sensitive information like API keys. | LLM | scripts/track_flight.py:34 | |
| MEDIUM | Suspicious import: requests Import of 'requests' detected. This module provides network or low-level system access. Verify this import is necessary. Network and system modules in skill code may indicate data exfiltration. | Static | skills/copey02/copey-flight-tracker/scripts/track_flight.py:15 |
