Security audit
Scholar Sidekick (MCP)
Security checks across malware telemetry and agentic risk
Overview
This skill is a narrowly scoped citation helper that discloses its external MCP server and API key requirement.
Install this only if you are comfortable configuring the Scholar Sidekick MCP server with a RapidAPI key and sharing citation identifiers or pasted citation details with that external service. Avoid using it for confidential manuscripts or private reference lists unless that data sharing is acceptable.
