Automated safety checks
This skill passed all 6 checks. We read its files at one commit and looked for the things that make a skill dangerous to run — not for whether it works.
Declares what it does: passed
SKILL.md parses and declares a name and a description.
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.

About this skill
What it does
The jwynia-web-search skill enables AI agents to perform web searches, retrieving relevant information from the internet. It is designed for backend use and integrates with search engines or APIs to fetch up-to-date data dynamically.
When to use it
- To gather real-time data such as stock prices, weather updates, or news articles.
- When an AI agent needs to answer questions that require external knowledge not available in its training data.
- For automating research tasks like finding academic papers, product reviews, or industry reports.
- To validate or supplement information from internal databases with current online sources.
Key capabilities
- Perform dynamic web searches using backend APIs.
- Retrieve structured and unstructured data from search results.
- Handle queries requiring up-to-date or external information.
Example prompts
- "Find the latest news about AI regulations in 2025."
- "Search for recent reviews of the product 'Xyz Corp Smartwatch'."
- "Get the current exchange rate between USD and EUR."
Tips & gotchas
- Ensure that your API keys or access tokens are securely managed when using external search services.
- Be mindful of rate limits and usage policies from the search provider to avoid disruptions in service.
