  1.0.1

Overview

This is a read-only X/Twitter search helper that uses your Desearch API key and sends searches to Desearch as part of its advertised function.

Install this only if you trust Desearch with your X/Twitter searches and identifiers. Use a dedicated, revocable API key, avoid entering secrets or regulated investigative terms as search queries, and review Desearch's privacy and retention terms if that data is sensitive.

Findings (2)

Missing User Warnings

Medium

• Confidence: 94% confidence
• Finding: The skill documentation does not warn that user queries and fetched X/Twitter content are transmitted to a third-party service using the configured DESEARCH_API_KEY. Because searches may contain sensitive investigative terms, usernames, URLs, or post IDs, users can unknowingly disclose operationally sensitive data to an external provider, creating privacy, compliance, and data-handling risks.

Missing User Warnings

Medium

• Confidence: 92% confidence
• Finding: The CLI sends user-supplied search queries, usernames, post IDs, and URLs to the external desearch.ai API, but the normal execution path provides no explicit disclosure or consent prompt before transmitting that data. In a tool context, this can expose potentially sensitive investigative targets or operator queries to a third-party service, especially if users assume processing is local.
