    Skill modifies its own code, configuration, or behavior at runtime. Self-modification enables an agent to escalate privileges, disable safety constraints, or install persistent backdoors.
    Fix: Prevent the skill from modifying its own code, SKILL.md, or configuration files. Treat skill files as read-only at runtime.
  • medium Rogue Agent · line 50
    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.

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

amazon-photos-album-download scanned grade A with 1 finding 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 24d ago.

The scan reads SKILL.md. This mod also ships 1 executable file (scripts/download-album.ts), listed below but not scanned — reading those needs a real analyzer, not pattern matching.

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.

Not a fault in itself. Listed so you know the mod talks to something, and to what.

How it starts

The opening of the file, as written. The whole thing — 90 lines — stays where its author put it; the contents beside it link to each section on GitHub.

amazon-photos-album-download

Self-Evolving Skill: This skill improves through use. If instructions are wrong, parameters drifted, or a workaround was needed — fix this file immediately, don't defer. Only update for real, reproducible issues.

Download every original file from a public Amazon Photos shared album — the kind of link you get from "Share → Copy link", e.g. https://www.amazon.ca/photos/share/qGAyl…. No Amazon login is needed for a public share; the album authorizes anonymously via its shareId.

When to use

  • You shared an album with someone and need the originals back locally to re-process them (the #1 case: convert iPhone HEIC originals to JPEG for a recipient who can't open HEIC — then see the heic-to-jpeg-bundle skill).
  • You want to re-host an album's photos yourself (a static gallery, a ZIP).
  • You need a verified, complete local backup of a share you (or someone) sent.

How it works

Amazon Photos is a React app over Amazon Drive's /drive/v1/ JSON API. A public share exposes, with just the shareId as auth:

  1. GET /drive/v1/shares/<shareId> → the root SHARED_COLLECTION node id.
  2. GET /drive/v1/nodes/<root>/children?limit=1… → the album folder node id.
  3. GET /drive/v1/nodes/<album>/children?filters=…image*+OR+video*…&limit=200… → the list of asset nodes (name, contentProperties.contentType, size).
  4. per node: GET /drive/v1/nodes/<id>/contentRedirection?download=true&shareId=… → the original bytes.

The script runs the JSON calls inside a headless Chrome page (via Playwright) so they carry the exact cookies/headers the web app uses, then writes each file under its real name and verifies the byte size against contentProperties.size. A manifest.json records every node id, name, type, and size.

Prerequisites

  • bun, playwright-core, and Google Chrome installed.
  • The album link must be public (open it once in a logged-out browser to confirm it doesn't redirect to a sign-in wall).

What ships with it

1 file beside SKILL.md in the same directory: the scripts, references and assets a skill reads on demand. Not counted in the per-session cost; read them before you install if any of them is executable.

Changes

What this file has done since we first saw it

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.
