securing-agents

What problem does it solve?

This Skill addresses critical security vulnerabilities in AI agents, protecting against prompt injection, unauthorized tool usage, and excessive autonomy to ensure safe and reliable operation.

Core Features & Use Cases

• Access Control: Implements the principle of least privilege for agent tools and file system access.
• Input Sanitization: Defends against prompt injection attacks using delimiters and prompt hardening.
• Tool Security: Validates and sanitizes arguments passed to agent tools to prevent misuse.
• Monitoring: Establishes logging and anomaly detection for security oversight.
• Use Case: Before deploying an agent that interacts with a database, use this skill to define strict access controls and input validation rules to prevent data breaches.

Quick Start

Use the securing-agents skill to generate a security policy for an agent that needs to read and write files in the /data directory.
