WhereCanIWatch

Find where to stream any movie or TV show in the US using the WhereCanIWatch.tv API. Use when a user asks "where can I watch [title]?", wants streaming avail...

Security Scan

The skill's requests and runtime instructions match its stated purpose (calling a public WhereCanIWatch.tv API) and it doesn't ask for unrelated credentials, installs, or elevated persistence.

Purpose & Capability

Name/description (streaming availability lookup) align with the SKILL.md: all required actions are HTTP GETs to wherecaniwatch.tv and optional filtering by user-provided subscriptions. Nothing requested appears unrelated to the stated purpose.

Instruction Scope

Runtime instructions are narrowly scoped: search endpoint, watch endpoint, simple filtering by user-declared subscriptions, and prescribed response formatting. The instructions do not ask the agent to read local files, environment variables, or other system state.

Install Mechanism

Instruction-only skill with no install spec and no code files. Nothing is written to disk and no third-party packages are pulled in by the skill itself.

Credentials

The skill declares no required environment variables, secrets, or config paths. That is proportional for a public-API lookup service.

Persistence & Privilege

The skill is not always-enabled and does not request system-wide persistence or changes to other skills. Autonomous invocation is allowed (platform default) but is not combined with other concerning privileges.

Assessment

This skill is coherent and lightweight, but note it makes outbound requests to https://www.wherecaniwatch.tv (title text you provide will be sent to that API). Before installing, consider: (1) privacy — avoid sending sensitive or personally identifying data you don't want recorded; (2) availability — the skill depends on an external site and its rate limits (listed in SKILL.md); (3) verify the domain uses HTTPS and is the legitimate service if you rely on deep links. No credentials or installs are required, so risk is limited to normal external-API exposure.
