Usage Guidance
This skill appears to do exactly what it states: run DuckDuckGo queries using the ddgs Python library. Before installing or enabling it: (1) ensure you trust the ddgs package in your environment (check its origin and version and install it from PyPI or a vetted source), (2) be aware that search queries are transmitted to DuckDuckGo — do not send sensitive secrets or private data, and (3) if you need guarantees about telemetry/privacy, review the ddgs package source and network behavior. If you require the agent to run autonomously, remember queries will be sent over the network, which is expected for a search skill.
Capability Analysis
Type: OpenClaw Skill
Name: eternal-free-search
Version: 1.0.0
The skill bundle provides a functional DuckDuckGo search interface using the 'ddgs' library. The Python script 'scripts/search.py' implements standard search, news, image, and Q&A functionality as described in 'SKILL.md' without any signs of data exfiltration, malicious execution, or prompt injection.
Capability Assessment
Purpose & Capability
Name/description (free DuckDuckGo search) match the included script and SKILL.md. The script implements web/news/qna/image/suggestion queries via the ddgs Python library, which is exactly what the description promises.
Instruction Scope
SKILL.md instructs running scripts/search.py with flags. The script only imports ddgs, accepts a query, calls DDGS methods, formats, and prints results. It does not read files, environment variables, or other system state, nor does it send data to any endpoint other than what ddgs uses to query DuckDuckGo.
Install Mechanism
No install spec is provided (instruction-only), and the code depends on the third-party 'ddgs' Python package. That package must already be present in the environment or installed separately; lack of an install step could cause runtime failures, but it is not inherently malicious. Consider verifying the ddgs package source/version before use.
Credentials
The skill requests no environment variables, credentials, or config paths. The absence of secrets is proportionate to its functionality.
Persistence & Privilege
The skill does not request persistent privileges (always=false) and contains no code that modifies agent/system configuration or other skills.
How to Use
- Make sure OpenClaw is installed (local or Docker)
- Run the install command in chat:
/install eternal-free-search - After installation, invoke the skill by name or use
/eternal-free-search - Provide required inputs per the skill's parameter spec and get structured output
