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.

  • Declares what it does: failed

    No SKILL.md was found in the skill's directory.

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

  • No undeclared network calls: passed

    Makes no network calls.

    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.

  • 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

    Reads no keys, tokens, keychains or credential files.

    Neither the code nor the SKILL.md instructions read SSH keys, cloud credentials, keychains, token stores, browser cookie databases or dotfiles that hold secrets.

  • No pipe-to-shell installers: 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.

  • Pinned to a commit: passed

    Scanned danielmiessler/personal_ai_infrastructure at 5e2f2e8c0a.

    The exact upstream commit SHA that was scanned is recorded, so the result refers to specific bytes.

About this skill

What it does

This skill provides access to Brightdata's Mosaic, a global web data network, enabling AI agents to scrape and fetch content from websites that might be blocked or difficult to access directly. It allows for both single URL scraping/fetching and crawling multiple pages from a site. The skill requires an initial voice notification before any action is taken.

When to use it

  • When you need to retrieve content from a website that's blocking your direct access.
  • To scrape or fetch a specific URL.
  • To crawl multiple pages from a website, whether for mapping the site or extracting data.
  • When encountering bot detection or CAPTCHA issues while accessing a webpage.
  • For comprehensive content extraction beyond basic scraping capabilities.

Key capabilities

  • Access to Brightdata's Mosaic web data network.
  • Single URL scraping/fetching using a four-tier progressive scraping workflow (WebFetch → Curl → Browser Automation → Bright Data MCP).
  • Website crawling, with options for light crawls (under 50 pages) and full crawls via the Bright Data Crawl API.
  • Workflow routing based on user requests (e.g., single URL vs. site crawl).
  • Mandatory voice notification before any action is performed.

Example prompts

  • "Scrape this URL: [URL]"
  • "Crawl all pages under /docs on example.com"
  • "I can't access this site; use Bright Data to fetch it."
  • “Get me the content from [URL]”

Tips & gotchas

  • Mandatory Notification: You must send a voice notification using the provided curl command immediately upon invoking the skill. This is not optional.
  • Workflow Selection: The agent will automatically route your request to either the "FourTierScrape" workflow for single URLs or the "Crawl" workflow for crawling multiple pages.
  • Customization: User-specific configurations can be found and applied from ~/.claude/PAI/USER/SKILLCUSTOMIZATIONS/BrightData/.
