SearXNG Connect

Connect to and search the web using SearXNG (privacy-focused meta search engine). No API keys needed - all searches go through your self-hosted SearXNG insta...

This skill appears to do what it says: it sends search queries to the SearXNG instance you configure and can optionally fetch full page text for richer results. Before enabling it: 1) Ensure you have 'uv' and Python 3.9+ installed (the skill does not include an install script despite README claims). 2) Update skill-config.json to point to a trusted SearXNG instance — all searches go to that URL. 3) Be aware the --full-content option causes the skill to fetch arbitrary result pages (those outbound requests may reveal that your agent requested those URLs and the fetched page content will be visible to the agent); enable it only if you trust that behavior. 4) The SKILL.md correctly warns about command injection; ensure the agent invokes the script using argv-style calls (not raw shell interpolation). 5) If you want the convenience of the referenced execute.sh or an auto-install path, request or add a trustworthy install wrapper rather than running undocumented scripts from unknown sources. Overall this is internally coherent and not disproportionate, but exercise normal caution configuring the target instance and granting autonomous invocation.

Type: OpenClaw Skill Name: searxng-connect Version: 1.0.0 The searxng-connect skill is a well-structured and security-conscious tool for performing privacy-focused web searches. The core logic in `scripts/searxng.py` implements standard features such as rate limiting, local caching in `~/.openclaw/`, and HTML text extraction without any signs of malicious intent or data exfiltration. Notably, `SKILL.md` includes explicit instructions for the AI agent to use safe argument passing (argv lists) to prevent command injection, demonstrating a proactive security approach.
