YouTube Outliers & Niche Finder Data by TubeLab

Security checks across malware telemetry and agentic risk

Overview

This is a coherent TubeLab API reference skill that uses a TubeLab API key and credit-bearing endpoints, so users should monitor account usage but the behavior is disclosed and purpose-aligned.

Before installing, make sure you are comfortable giving the agent access to your TubeLab API key and with API calls potentially consuming TubeLab credits. There is no evidence of hidden code, persistence, credential exfiltration, or behavior outside the stated YouTube research purpose.

#
ASI03: Identity and Privilege Abuse
Low
What this means

If installed, the agent can make TubeLab API requests using the configured API key.

Why it was flagged

The skill requires a TubeLab API key, which grants access to the user's TubeLab account/API quota. This is expected for the stated API integration and no leakage or unrelated credential use is shown.

Skill content
Every request requires an `Authorization` header with your API key: `Authorization: Api-Key $TUBELAB_API_KEY`
Recommendation

Use a revocable TubeLab API key, keep it out of shared logs/prompts, and monitor account usage.

#
ASI02: Tool Misuse and Exploitation
Low
What this means

Searches and scans may spend TubeLab credits if the agent uses them.

Why it was flagged

The skill documents API operations that can consume paid credits. This is disclosed and aligned with the TubeLab research purpose, but it is still a usage-impacting capability.

Skill content
Most endpoints cost credits... `POST /scan` | 50–100 credits
Recommendation

Review or limit expensive scan/search requests, especially repeated or broad research tasks.
