mcpwn-retry-exploit

SkillSecurity

This security skill lets your AI scan the agent skills you have installed and catch security flaws before any of them get used. Problems are surfaced up front, so a risky skill is flagged before your AI relies on it. The scanner is based on the skill-scanner project from Cisco AI Defense.

Available today. Use it from your connected AI after setup.

After adding the skill, ask your AI to scan your installed skills for security flaws. Look over what it flags before putting those skills to work.

Then ask your AI: use the mcpwn-retry-exploit skill

What your AI can do with it

  • Scan your installed skills for security flaws
  • Check a skill for problems before your AI uses it
  • Flag skills with security issues before they get used
  • Run a security review across the skills you already have installed
