Not pinned. Installing fetches whatever the repository holds at the time you run the command.

No human has reviewed this code. The checks below are a static scan of the files at one commit — nobody has run this skill or judged whether it works. A skill runs with whatever access you give your agent, so read the source before you install it.

Automated safety checks

scanned

This skill failed 1 of 6 checks. A failure is not proof of bad intent; it means something in the code needs a human to look at it before you run it.

  • No undeclared network calls: failed

    Contacts 4 hosts that are neither well-known infrastructure nor declared in the skill's frontmatter: api-dashboard.search.brave.com, api.search.brave.com, doc.rust-lang.org, opencollective.com.

    Every host the skill dials — from its scripts, its config endpoints or the commands it tells the agent to run — is either well-known package and API infrastructure or declared in its own frontmatter. Links in documentation are not counted.

    SKILL.md exists, its frontmatter parses, and it declares a name and a description.

  • No obfuscated payloads: passed

    No encoded or obfuscated payloads.

    No base64, hex or compressed blob is decoded and then executed, and no encoded shell commands.

  • No credential access: passed

    No pipe-to-shell or download-and-run installers.

    No `curl … | sh` pattern, in the code or in the instructions, that runs code fetched at run time.

About this skill

What it does

The badlogic-brave-search skill enables AI agents to perform live web searches using the Brave search engine. It allows agents to retrieve current information, verify facts from recent sources, and answer queries that require up-to-date data beyond static training sets.

When to use it

  • Fact-checking: Verify news events or statistics published after your knowledge cutoff.
  • Real-time data: Retrieve live prices, weather updates, or stock market trends.
  • Current events: Investigate breaking news stories or recent technological developments.
  • Source verification: Cross-reference information found in documents with current online discussions.

Key capabilities

  • Executes queries directly against the Brave search engine index.
  • Returns results relevant to the specific question asked by the user.
  • Integrates seamlessly into the badlogic/pi-skills framework for agent workflows.

Example prompts

  • "What are the latest updates on the new iPhone release schedule?"
  • "Search for current reviews of the best running shoes available this month."
  • "Find recent news articles about changes to the US tax code in 2024."

Tips & gotchas

This skill relies entirely on internet connectivity; it will not function if the agent has no network access. While it provides current data, always review the specific search results returned by the agent to ensure they meet your accuracy standards, as search engines can occasionally return outdated or irrelevant snippets.
