Significant concerns — only install if you understand the risks

The skill requires an API key and accesses sensitive data from Xiaohongshu. While it seems to be for legitimate purposes, the handling of credentials and potential data exposure is a concern.

⚠ Flagged for review — coarse, uncorroborated signal, not a confirmed exploit. Review the config yourself before installing.

Findings (1)

Coarse signal — prose, single-step high

Instruction-prose smuggling shape detected: collects a sensitive target ("API key") and emits it outward ("Send"). Phrased as prose with no trigger tokens — a semantic prompt-injection / data-exfil pattern the syntactic scanners can't see. Final tier capped at Caution; review the instructions before installing.
