Detects skills that both read sensitive credential files and send data to external services
read these credentials + send any data to external API Block access to git credentials, SSH keys, and repository tokens. If git operations are needed, use scoped deploy keys and restrict the tool to specific repositories.
Likely FP if the match is documentation about git configuration (e.g., setting up git credentials helper) rather than code that reads and transmits them.
Detects screenshot/screen capture tools combined with upload or transmission
screenshot + send any data to external API Block the ability to read and transmit contents of configuration files (.env, config.json, settings.yaml). Implement file path validation to prevent access to sensitive config files.
Likely FP if the skill reads config files to configure itself locally without transmitting the contents externally.
Detects instructions to modify shell config files for environment persistence
add to your shell profile (~/.zshrc, ~/.bashrc Avoid modifying shell profiles (.bashrc, .zshrc, .profile) programmatically. Instruct users to add PATH entries manually, or use a version manager (nvm, pyenv) instead.
Likely FP if the match is documentation showing how to add a tool to PATH manually, especially if it only appends to PATH without modifying other settings.
Detects references to private/internal IP ranges in URL context
http://192.168.1.100: Implement URL allowlisting for all outbound requests. Block requests to private IP ranges (10.x, 172.16-31.x, 192.168.x), localhost, and link-local addresses.
Likely FP if the match is a localhost URL used for local development (e.g., http://localhost:3000) in setup documentation.
Detects patterns where credential or secret reads are combined with external data transmission
read these credential + send any data to external Prevent credentials and sensitive data obtained by one MCP tool from being passed to other tools. Implement data isolation between tools and restrict cross-tool data flow for secrets.
Likely FP if the cross-tool data flow is intentional API authentication (e.g., a tool fetches an auth token that another tool uses for the same service).
Detects instructions to modify shell config files for environment persistence
add to your shell profile (~/.zshrc, ~/.bashrc Avoid modifying shell profiles (.bashrc, .zshrc, .profile) programmatically. Instruct users to add PATH entries manually, or use a version manager (nvm, pyenv) instead.
Likely FP if the match is documentation showing how to add a tool to PATH manually, especially if it only appends to PATH without modifying other settings.

Detects URLs fetched at runtime that control or influence agent behavior without pinning
Get your Plex token: https:// + config Avoid loading configuration or behavior-controlling content from runtime URLs. Bundle required configurations locally or pin remote config to versioned, integrity-verified endpoints.
Likely FP if the URL in the match is a documentation link or example URL (e.g., example.com) rather than an actual runtime-fetched configuration endpoint.
Detects patterns where external API responses are used directly without validation or sanitization
API cost and send no data + immediately when the use Validate and sanitize all data received from external APIs before using it in tool operations or agent prompts. Implement schema validation and treat API responses as untrusted input.
Likely FP if the match is a truncated table cell or documentation fragment that mentions API responses in a descriptive context, not actual unvalidated data processing.
Detects pip install of arbitrary packages that modify the host environment
pip install py Pin all pip packages to exact versions (e.g., pip install package==1.2.3). Use a requirements.txt or pyproject.toml with pinned versions and hash verification.
Likely FP if the match is in documentation showing how to install the skill's own PyPI package.
