README (SKILL.md)

Google SERP

Use this skill for Google SERP research, search result collection, competitive intelligence, trend monitoring, local business lookups, and shopping or scholar analysis. It is the broad Google-facing skill for tasks that start from a keyword, a place, a domain, or a topic and need structured Google result data.

When To Use It

  • The user wants Google web search, news search, image search, video search, or mobile SERP output for a keyword.
  • The task is about Google Maps, Local, Shopping, Trends, Scholar, Finance, Hotels, Lens, Jobs, or AI result surfaces.
  • The user can provide filters such as query, country, language, domain, page, geo, or a Google Maps place identifier.
  • The user needs API-backed Google result data for research, monitoring, ranking checks, or reporting instead of a freeform answer.

Representative Operations

  • search: Search SERP — Pull standard Google web results for keyword research and ranking checks.
  • mapsSearch: Maps Search — Find Google Maps business results and local pack data for a query and location.
  • TrendsSearch: Trends Search — Inspect time-series search interest and related trend signals.
  • ScholarSearch: Scholar Search — Query academic search results and citation-oriented records.
  • shoppingSearch: Shopping Search — Collect product listings, merchants, and pricing signals from Google Shopping.

Request Pattern

  • 31 read-only GET operations are available in this skill.
  • Common inputs are query, country, domain, language, geo, page, html, and feature-specific identifiers.
  • Most operations are query-only; none require a request body.
  • Prefer the narrowest Google vertical that matches the task instead of using generic search for everything.

How To Work

  1. Read generated/operations.md before choosing an endpoint.
  2. Start with one of these operations when it matches the user's request: search, mapsSearch, TrendsSearch, ScholarSearch, shoppingSearch.
  3. Pick the smallest matching operation instead of guessing.
  4. Ask the user for any missing required parameter. Do not invent values.
  5. Call the helper with:
node {baseDir}/bin/run.mjs --operation "\x3Coperation-id>" --api-key "$JUST_SERP_API_KEY" --params-json '{"key":"value"}'

Environment

  • Required: JUST_SERP_API_KEY
  • This skill uses JUST_SERP_API_KEY only for authenticated Just Serp API requests.
  • Keep JUST_SERP_API_KEY private. Do not paste it into chat messages, screenshots, or logs.
  • Project site: Just Serp API.
  • Authentication details: Just Serp API Docs.

Output Rules

  • Lead with the Google surface you used and the exact query or filters applied.
  • For SERP-style responses, summarize the top result patterns before raw JSON.
  • For Maps, Shopping, Scholar, or Trends requests, highlight the entity, metric, or ranking signals most relevant to the user's decision.
  • If multiple Google verticals could answer the task, explain why the chosen endpoint was the best fit.
  • If the backend errors, include the backend payload and the exact operation ID.
Usage Guidance
This skill appears coherent for querying Just Serp's Google surfaces. Before installing, review the included bin/run.mjs yourself (it will make HTTP requests to api.justserpapi.com) and keep your JUST_SERP_API_KEY private. Avoid passing the key on a command line on multi-user systems (use environment variables or secret storage), check the Just Serp pricing/quotas, and only enable autonomous invocation if you trust the provider and want the agent to call it without manual approval.
Capability Analysis
Type: OpenClaw Skill Name: justserpapi-google Version: 1.0.2 The skill bundle is a legitimate API wrapper for the Just Serp API, providing structured access to various Google search surfaces (web, maps, trends, etc.). The core logic in bin/run.mjs is a straightforward Node.js script that performs authenticated HTTPS GET requests to api.justserpapi.com using a user-supplied API key, with no evidence of malicious behavior, data exfiltration, or prompt injection.

Capability Assessment
Purpose & Capability
Name/description match the included OpenAPI manifest and code (bin/run.mjs) that calls https://api.justserpapi.com; requiring node and a JUST_SERP_API_KEY is reasonable for this purpose.
Instruction Scope
SKILL.md restricts use to the declared API key and query parameters and does not direct reading unrelated files or credentials. One privacy/security caveat: the provided invocation example passes the API key as a command-line argument (--api-key "$JUST_SERP_API_KEY"), which can expose the key in process listings on some systems — consider using an environment variable passed implicitly or other secret handling if running on multi-user hosts.
Install Mechanism
There is no install spec (instruction-only style with provided node script). No downloads from untrusted URLs are performed by the registry metadata; running the included run.mjs will perform outbound API calls to the stated api.justserpapi.com endpoint, which is expected.
Credentials
The skill requests a single API credential JUST_SERP_API_KEY (declared as primaryEnv) and no unrelated secrets or config paths — this is proportionate for an API-backed search skill.
Persistence & Privilege
No always:true, no unusual persistence or modification of other skills/configs. The skill can be invoked autonomously (platform default), which is expected for skills and not by itself a red flag.
How to Use
  1. Make sure OpenClaw is installed (local or Docker)
  2. Run the install command in chat: /install justserpapi-google
  3. After installation, invoke the skill by name or use /justserpapi-google
  4. Provide required inputs per the skill's parameter spec and get structured output
