Places
PassAudited by ClawScan on May 13, 2026.
Overview
This appears to be a normal Camino place-lookup skill, but it sends your place/address queries and Camino API key to Camino’s external API.
This skill looks safe for its stated purpose. Before installing, make sure you are comfortable giving it a Camino API key and sending location/address queries to Camino. Prefer the specific camino-places install command rather than installing the whole companion suite unless you have reviewed those additional skills.

Artifact-based informational review of SKILL.md, metadata, install specs, static scan signals, and capability signals. ClawScan does not execute the skill or run runtime probes.
Anyone using the skill must provide a Camino API key, and requests made by the skill may consume that account's quota or paid usage if applicable.
The script authenticates outbound Camino API requests with the user's CAMINO_API_KEY. This is expected for the stated service, but the key controls access to the user's Camino API quota/account.
-H "X-API-Key: $CAMINO_API_KEY" ... "https://api.getcamino.ai/search?${QUERY_STRING}"Use a Camino key intended for this integration, store it securely, and rotate it if it is exposed.
Addresses, place names, and related search details you provide will be shared with Camino for processing.
User-provided place queries and address components are converted into URL query parameters and sent to Camino's API. This is the core purpose of the skill, but location queries can be sensitive.
append_string_param street "$STREET" ... append_string_param city "$CITY" ... curl -s -X POST ... "https://api.getcamino.ai/search?${QUERY_STRING}"Avoid submitting sensitive locations unless you are comfortable with Camino processing them, and review the provider's privacy and retention terms if needed.
Following the broad install command may install additional skills that were not reviewed here.
The documentation first suggests installing the entire Camino skills repository, which could add companion skills beyond the reviewed camino-places artifact. This is user-directed and disclosed, but broader than the single skill under review.
