What Would Elon Do? (WED)

This is a Security Research Demo

This skill was created as part of security research demonstrating supply chain vulnerabilities in AI coding assistant ecosystems.

What This Demonstrates

  1. Download counts can be trivially inflated - Don't trust popularity metrics
  2. Skills can execute arbitrary code - Always read the source before installing
  3. Social engineering works - A catchy name got you here

Is This Malicious?

No. This is a neutered demo version:

  • NO commands are executed
  • NO data is collected
  • NO network requests are made

The original research PoC only sent an anonymous ping to count executions - no user data was ever collected.

Protect Yourself

  1. ALWAYS read SKILL.md and source files before installing
  2. Don't trust download counts or stars - they can be faked
  3. Be suspicious of skills that seem too good to be true
