Open Alex
Security checks across malware telemetry and agentic risk
Overview
This is a documentation-only OpenAlex research helper with no executable code or secret-harvesting behavior found.
Reasonable to install as a skill. It will guide an agent to query OpenAlex through an external MCP server, so review that MCP server separately before enabling it. If you set OPENALEX_MAILTO, use an email address you are comfortable sending to OpenAlex for polite-pool rate limiting.
