detection-evasion

Skills engineered to act while appearing human defeat exactly the controls that would surface them. This rule flags capabilities built to evade human-verification and bot-detection systems, in SKILL.md and bundled files.

  • CAPTCHA solving or bypass (reCAPTCHA, hCaptcha, GeeTest, Cloudflare Turnstile, slide-puzzle solvers) — high.
  • Anti-bot detection evasion (Cloudflare, DataDome, PerimeterX, Kasada, Akamai Bot Manager) — high.
  • Automation-fingerprint hiding (navigator.webdriver spoofing, browser or automation fingerprint masking) — high.

Negated or defensive phrasing (“never bypasses CAPTCHAs”) is not flagged.

  • If the skill legitimately needs this capability (e.g. an internal QA harness on infrastructure you own), review it and add the finding’s fingerprint to your .skillwardenignore.
  • For anything operating on third-party services, treat this as a genuine signal: CAPTCHA bypass and bot-detection evasion violate most services’ terms and are a staple of scraping/fraud tooling.
