Zhipu Search

Security checks across malware telemetry and agentic risk

Overview

This skill does what it claims: it sends user search queries to Zhipu's web search API using a declared API key, with no hidden persistence or unrelated access found.

Install only if you trust Zhipu with the search terms you submit. Use a limited-scope API key, avoid shared machines or shell startup files for long-lived secrets, and do not send confidential prompts, credentials, personal data, or internal business content as search queries.

Vague Triggers

Medium
Confidence
81% confidence
Finding
The skill's trigger guidance is very broad (`search for`, `look up`, `latest news`) and lacks exclusion boundaries, which can cause over-selection for many generic user requests. In an agent environment, that increases the chance of unnecessary external calls and transmission of user queries to a third-party service when a local answer or different skill would have been more appropriate.
