Description
Search the web and get real-time SERP-style results with titles, URLs, and snippets. Use this for general web queries when you need current links and informa...
Usage Guidance
Install this only if you are comfortable sending search queries to Desearch and using a Desearch API key from your environment. Review your account billing and key permissions because the skill will authenticate requests with DESEARCH_API_KEY.
Capability Analysis
Type: OpenClaw Skill
Name: desearch-web-search
Version: 1.0.1
The skill bundle provides a client for the Desearch web search API. The `SKILL.md` file contains standard documentation and usage instructions without any prompt injection attempts. The `scripts/desearch.py` script correctly retrieves the `DESEARCH_API_KEY` from environment variables, makes HTTP GET requests to a hardcoded `https://api.desearch.ai` endpoint, and properly sanitizes user input (`query`, `start`) using `urllib.parse.urlencode` before constructing the URL. There is no evidence of arbitrary code execution, unauthorized file system access, data exfiltration, or other malicious behaviors. All actions are aligned with the stated purpose of performing web searches.
Capability Assessment
Credentials
The skill uses the DESEARCH_API_KEY environment variable and outbound HTTPS to api.desearch.ai, which is proportionate for an authenticated web-search integration and disclosed in the skill metadata and documentation.
Install Mechanism
No installer, dependency bootstrapper, remote code retrieval, or package mutation behavior was present in the inspected artifact.
Instruction Scope
The skill instructions describe usage, options, expected responses, and API-key setup without hidden directives, role changes, persistence instructions, or unrelated agent behavior.
Persistence & Privilege
No cross-session persistence, credential storage, privilege escalation, background workers, local indexing, or destructive file/system actions were found.
Purpose & Capability
The stated purpose is real-time web search, and the included script only implements a GET request to Desearch's /web endpoint with query and pagination parameters.
