Twitter User Profile API

Security checks across malware telemetry and agentic risk

Overview

This is a focused Twitter profile lookup skill, but it handles the required JustOneAPI token in ways that can expose it through command arguments and request URLs.

Review before installing. Use this only in a trusted local environment, avoid shell history or command logging that could capture the token, and rotate the JustOneAPI token if it may have been exposed. Prefer a version that reads the token from the environment internally and avoids putting secrets in command arguments or URLs.

Finding
The skill defines the authentication token as a query parameter and then appends all query parameters directly to the request URL, causing the secret to be sent in the URL rather than in an authorization header. Query-string secrets are commonly exposed via logs, proxies, browser/history tooling, error telemetry, and upstream monitoring systems, which increases the chance of credential leakage even when HTTPS is used.
