Serper Clone

Security checks across malware telemetry and agentic risk

Overview

This is a documented self-hosted search skill with no hidden installer or automation, though users should understand that search privacy depends on the backend configuration.

Install this only with a Serper Clone/SearXNG server you control or trust. Protect the API key file, use HTTPS where possible, avoid highly sensitive searches unless you have verified the backend's logging and upstream-engine configuration, and encode JSON safely if reusing the shell helper.
