Patent Assistant
PassAudited by ClawScan on May 1, 2026.
Overview
The skill is coherent for drafting patent disclosures and running patent searches, but users should avoid sending confidential invention details to external search sites unless they are comfortable with that exposure.
This appears safe to use for drafting and ordinary patent-search assistance. Before running searches, especially the recommended multi-platform search, reduce the query to keywords and avoid submitting confidential invention details unless external disclosure is acceptable.

Artifact-based informational review of SKILL.md, metadata, install specs, static scan signals, and capability signals. ClawScan does not execute the skill or run runtime probes.
If you search using a full invention disclosure or trade-secret details, those details may be sent to third-party services and, for the Innojoy path, over an unencrypted HTTP URL.
The patent search helper URL-encodes the user's query and sends it to external search providers; one supported provider uses plain HTTP. This is aligned with patent search, but unpublished technical details may leave the local environment.
url = f"https://patents.google.com/xhr/query?url=q%3D{encoded_query}&num={limit}&exp=" ... url = f"http://www.innojoy.com/search/index.html?kw={encoded_query}"Use concise, non-confidential keywords where possible, avoid full disclosure text for external searches, and skip all-platform or HTTP-based searches if the invention is highly confidential.
