Security audit

Recreation Information Database Search

Security checks across malware telemetry and agentic risk

Overview

This skill appears to do what it claims: search recreation.gov/RIDB for nearby recreation facilities, with expected external API lookups.

Before installing, be comfortable with the data flow: --location sends the place name to OpenStreetMap Nominatim for geocoding, and searches send coordinates plus your RIDB API key to ridb.recreation.gov. Use direct --lat and --lon if you do not want to send a free-form place name to Nominatim, and avoid sensitive destinations if that privacy exposure matters to you.

Missing User Warnings

92% confidence
Finding
The README states that geocoding uses OpenStreetMap Nominatim but does not clearly warn users that free-form location queries they enter will be transmitted to an external third-party service. This creates a privacy/transparency issue because users may provide sensitive destinations or travel plans without realizing those inputs leave the local tool and are sent off-platform.
