Cocreator Content Research

Security checks across malware telemetry and agentic risk

Overview

This is a read-only social media research skill that transparently uses a ScrapeCreators API key, with a few privacy and installer cautions but no evidence of hidden posting, local data access, persistence, or destructive behavior.

Install only if you are comfortable giving the skill a ScrapeCreators API key and sending researched keywords, hashtags, and creator handles to ScrapeCreators. Use a limited API key or quota where possible, avoid passing the key on the command line, and review or install uv through a trusted package manager instead of blindly running the curl-to-shell installer.

Category
MCP Least Privilege
Confidence
81% confidence
Finding
The skill uses environment secrets and makes external network calls, but it does not declare corresponding permissions or user-visible boundaries. That weakens platform-level governance and informed consent, making it easier for an agent to transmit user queries, handles, or API-backed results off-platform without clear review.

Tp4

High
Category
MCP Tool Poisoning
Confidence
88% confidence
Finding
The skill is presented as 'pure intelligence gathering,' but the documented behavior includes broader collection features such as keyword/hashtag search, direct video playback URLs, and full raw profile responses. This mismatch can cause downstream agents or users to underestimate the sensitivity and breadth of data retrieval, increasing the chance of inappropriate data collection or disclosure.

Missing User Warnings

Medium
Confidence
86% confidence
Finding
The skill lacks a user-facing warning that queries, creator handles, and related research inputs are transmitted to an external API provider. In a research context, those inputs may reveal business strategy, client interests, or investigative targets, so silent transmission creates privacy and confidentiality risk.
