Code audit

CAUTION version 1.0.0, audited 2026-09-17: This skill is a web-search tool. It installs and uses a third-party Python package to query DuckDuckGo for web, news, image, and video results, then prints the results as text, Markdown, or JSON or saves them to a file. Full audit.

How this is computed

Adoption (downloads relative to the registry, 7-day velocity, installs), maturity (age, release cadence, stars, author portfolio), inherited payment trust (every host or wallet the skill's instructions pay is looked up in the x402 service trust index; paying a rated service inherits its tier, an unknown hard-coded wallet is flagged) and hygiene (registry moderation verdict, license, declared setup, origin). Flags cap the tier, they never add to it. Trust line at BBB. Rating as of 2026-10-13.
