SkillAtlas, a hosted attack trace library that converts private agent-skill security report bundles into reviewed, redacted, and searchable public cases, is presented.
Abstract
Agent skills are reusable units for language-model agents, but their risks emerge through model decisions, user context, tool calls, and execution feedback rather than through stable signatures or a single sandbox run. Existing static, dynamic, and benchmark-style evaluations rarely preserve public evidence that can be inspected, searched, and reused. We present SkillAtlas, a hosted attack trace library that converts private agent-skill security report bundles into reviewed, redacted, and searchable public cases. The library contains 3,014 cases, 6,589 traces, 151,131 steps, 233 affected skills, and 8 risk categories; 42.5% of successful cases first become successful after a non-success initial round, and trajectory-grounded labels improve pre-execution guard accuracy to 0.770.
A deterministic routing stress test over 20,000 skills shows the functional impact: skills with valid routing metadata are retrieved more reliably from startup descriptions than skills with routing defects, while AI-marked skills show more safety and portability problems.

Contextual security defenses prevent AI agents from taking rogue actions by synthesizing a task-specific policy and enforcing it on the agent's tool calls. In multi-step tasks, however, which actions are valid often depends on what the agent has already done and learned. We present Sapien, a policy engine for enforcing...

These findings recast a matched Skill as a hypothesis about a particular Skill-project-model triple rather than a portable asset, reframing injection as a per-deployment routing decision and making length-matched controls and per-model audits a minimum standard for Agent-Skill evaluation.
Machine-learning networks can learn without detailed instructions from a designer. Those that do may offer insight into how the brain reorganizes itself during learning.
