Security audit

sciverse academic retrieval

Security checks across malware telemetry and agentic risk

Overview

This skill is a coherent academic-retrieval integration that uses a disclosed Sciverse API token to search papers and fetch paper content.

Install this only if you intend to use Sciverse for academic retrieval and are comfortable sending your search queries, requested document identifiers, and Sciverse API token to Sciverse. Keep the token scoped to this service and avoid setting SCIVERSE_BASE_URL unless it points to a trusted sciverse.space endpoint.
