SkillSpector: 4 findings, up to high

These are SkillSpector’s own severities. On a checked sample its high-severity flags on skills were ~96% false positives — a documented command, a public API, a “never do X” rule — so we show them as a caution to read, not a verdict. Why →

  • high Prompt Injection · line 60
    Hidden instructions were detected in comments or invisible text. These could contain malicious directives. Manual review is recommended.
    Fix: Audit all comments and invisible characters. Remove any instructions that direct the agent to perform unauthorized actions. Use plain, reviewable content.
  • medium Rogue Agent · line 23
    Skill establishes unauthorized persistence across sessions via cron jobs, startup scripts, or state files. Session persistence allows an attacker to maintain access beyond the current interaction.
    Fix: Remove any persistence mechanisms (cron jobs, startup scripts, state files). Skills should not maintain state across sessions without explicit user consent.

    Skill enables autonomous high-impact decisions without human-in-the-loop verification. Critical operations (destructive commands, financial transactions, data deletion) should require explicit user confirmation.
    Fix: Add human-in-the-loop confirmation for destructive, irreversible, or high-impact operations. Never auto-execute commands that modify files, send data, or alter system state.

Token cost

What it costs to keep this loaded

Counted locally with the o200k_base tokenizer, which is exact for GPT models; Claude uses its own tokenizer and its counts differ. Treat this as one consistent yardstick across the catalogue rather than a bill. Prices are per million input tokens.

Security

Grade A, and why

finance-pulse scanned grade A with 0 findings against 26 rules in 11 categories — prompt injection, anti-refusal, data exfiltration, privilege escalation, supply chain, agent snooping, system-prompt leakage, SSRF and excessive agency — measured today.

A static scan of the body, not an audit. Every finding is printed with the line that produced it so you can judge whether it matters here. A mod is markdown that instructs an agent; that is exactly why what it instructs is worth reading.

Nothing flagged

None of the 26 patterns this scan looks for appear in this file: no shell pipes, no recursive deletes, no credential paths, no hidden text, no instruction-override or anti-refusal phrasing, no agent-config snooping. That is not a guarantee, it is the absence of the things that are checkable.

Finance Pulse

When to use

  • The user asks how they're doing financially or wants a check-in
  • The user asks about "free money" or discretionary budget
  • The user says "pulse" or asks for a spending summary

Do NOT use if

  • The user wants a specific affordability decision → use /finance
  • The user wants to fix categories or clean transactions → use /finance-cleanup

Give the user a 30-second financial check-in. One number, a few flags, prospective framing. Read-only — this skill never writes.

Phase 1 — Gather Data

  1. Read the user profile at ~/.claude/copilot-money/user-profile.md. If the file doesn't exist: run mkdir -p ~/.claude/copilot-money, then copy skills/user-profile.template.md (relative to the copilot-money-mcp repo root) to the profile path. First-time bootstrap may require CWD = repo root for the template read. Note:

    • Income & Obligations (if populated): monthly income, rent, fixed costs
    • Savings & Goals: targets and active goals
    • Irregular Expenses: amortized monthly reserve
    • Preferences: what not to flag, categories they care about
    • Communication Style: detail level, tone, framing
    • If Income & Obligations is empty, this is a first run — Phase 2 will handle bootstrapping.
  2. Pull data. Use these MCP tools in parallel:

    • get_accounts — all accounts with balances (for net worth and available cash)
    • get_transactions with period: "this_month", exclude_transfers: true — current month spending
    • get_transactions with period: "last_month", exclude_transfers: true — last month for comparison
    • get_transactions with period: "last_90_days", exclude_transfers: true — for rolling averages
    • get_categories with view: "list", period: "this_month" — category spending this month
    • get_categories with view: "list", period: "last_90_days" — category spending for 90-day baseline
    • get_recurring_transactions with period: "last_90_days" and fields: ["default", "transactions"] — subscriptions and recurrings. The fields argument is required for the price-drift check in Phase 2.4: as of v3.0.0 the matched per-charge transactions array is excluded from the default row, and average_amount / total_amount alone cannot show a change over time.
    • get_budgets with active_only: true — any budgets the user set
    • get_goals with active_only: true — savings goals

Hashed on every crawl. A supply-chain change to an agent config is a question of when, not whether, so the history is kept rather than the latest state alone.
