ClawAudit verdict

tavily-search-skill

88
🟢 Trusted
Low risk — reviewed by ClawAudit, behavior matches stated purpose

Tavily search via curl/jq that clones from a named GitHub repo and stores the user-provided API key in a local file with chmod 600; all steps are transparent, user-prompted, and no suspicious exfiltration is present.

⚠ Flagged for review — coarse, uncorroborated signal, not a confirmed exploit. Review the config yourself before installing.

Automated static analysis — not a human review. ClawAudit flags capabilities, not confirmed intent, and can produce false positives. Disagree with this verdict? Use Dispute below.
