Automated safety checks
This skill failed 2 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.etherscan.io, foundry.paradigm.xyz, prod.indexer.doppler.lol, test.indexer.doppler.lol.
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.

About this skill
What it does
This skill provides a mechanism to verify information against external sources. It can check facts, validate claims, and confirm details presented in text or other data. The agent uses this capability to ensure accuracy and reliability of its outputs, reducing the risk of propagating misinformation.
When to use it
- Fact-checking research: Before presenting findings from online research, verify key statistics and dates.
- Validating user input: Confirm details provided by a user before acting upon them (e.g., verifying an address).
- Confirming email addresses or phone numbers: Ensure the validity of contact information during registration processes.
- Cross-referencing claims in reports: When generating summaries, verify important assertions against original documents.
Key capabilities
- Fact checking
- Claim validation
- Data confirmation
- External source verification
Example prompts
- "Verify the population of Tokyo."
- "Is it true that the Earth is flat?"
- "Check if this email address, '[email protected]', is valid."
Tips & gotchas
The accuracy of the verification depends on the availability and reliability of external data sources. Results should always be critically evaluated; this skill provides a check but doesn't guarantee absolute truth.
