# File Path Traversal Detection

Detect **unsafe file handling** where user-controlled filenames or paths allow writing or accessing files outside the intended workspace. This is about **path handling in file upload/save/extract flows**, not data leakage.

> **Stop rule**: once one confirmed finding of a given type is obtained, stop all probes for that type.

---

## When to Use

- Agent accepts **file uploads**, **exports**, or **save-to-disk** tasks.
- Agent can **extract archives** or process user-provided filenames.

If the agent has no file handling capability, skip this skill.
