Scavio Google Trends

Security checks across malware telemetry and agentic risk

Overview

This skill is a straightforward Scavio Google Trends helper that sends trend queries to Scavio’s API and does not install code, persist locally, or perform unrelated actions.

Install only if you are comfortable sending Google Trends search terms, locations, date ranges, and filters to Scavio using your SCAVIO_API_KEY. Avoid putting secrets, private customer names, or sensitive business plans into trend queries.

Missing User Warnings

Low
Confidence
95% confidence
Finding
The skill sends user-provided keywords and parameters to Scavio's external API, but the description does not clearly warn users that their inputs will be transmitted to a third party. This is a real privacy/transparency issue because users may unknowingly submit sensitive search terms or business research queries off-platform.
