Mentions Discover

  1.0.1

Overview

The skill mostly does what it claims, but it has an undocumented setting that can redirect the paid API key to any configured server.

Install only if you are comfortable giving this skill a MentionsAPI key and making paid calls. Do not set MENTIONSAPI_URL unless you intentionally trust that exact endpoint; the safer expectation is for the skill to restrict credentials to the official MentionsAPI HTTPS host.
