Overview

This skill is a disclosed Apify-backed Google search helper for finding healthcare business prospects, with no hidden install steps or bundled executable code.

### REST API fallback

```bash
curl -X POST "https://api.apify.com/v2/acts/apidojo~google-search-scraper/runs" \
  -H "Authorization: Bearer $APIFY_TOKEN" \
  -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
  -d '{"searchTerms": ["dental practice Chicago"], "countryCode": "US", "maxPagesPerQuery": 3}'

Finding
The hardcoded external endpoint confirms this skill depends on a third-party service, so using it necessarily transmits data outside the trust boundary. In this healthcare-prospecting context, the data appears to be business search queries rather than patient records, which lowers severity, but it still poses privacy, compliance, and supply-chain risk if operators send sensitive information.
