zhipu web search

PassAudited by VirusTotal on May 12, 2026.

Overview

Type: OpenClaw Skill Name: zhipu-web-search Version: 1.0.8 The skill is a legitimate wrapper for the Zhipu AI Web Search API, allowing an agent to perform web searches via the official endpoint (open.bigmodel.cn). The provided shell script (scripts/zhipu_search.sh) uses cURL to interact with the API and includes basic sanitization for the search query to ensure valid JSON construction. No evidence of malicious intent, data exfiltration, or prompt injection was found.

Findings (0)

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.

What this means

Search requests are made under the user's Zhipu account and may consume quota or be associated with that account.

Why it was flagged

The script uses the user's Zhipu API key as a bearer credential for the expected Zhipu web search endpoint.

Skill content
--header "Authorization: Bearer $ZHIPU_API_KEY"
Recommendation

Use a revocable, appropriately scoped API key if available, and remove or rotate it if you stop using the skill.

What this means

Anything included in a search query may be sent to Zhipu/BigModel.

Why it was flagged

The skill sends search queries to an external provider endpoint, which is expected for web search but means query text leaves the local environment.

Skill content
--url https://open.bigmodel.cn/api/paas/v4/web_search
Recommendation

Avoid placing secrets, private documents, or confidential business details in search queries unless that sharing is acceptable.

What this means

Users have less external context for verifying authorship, maintenance, or updates.

Why it was flagged

The listing does not identify an upstream source or homepage, giving users less provenance context even though the included script is simple and visible.

Skill content
Source: unknown; Homepage: none
Recommendation

Review the included script before installing and prefer a trusted source or official documentation for the API key setup.
