Brave Images

PassAudited by ClawScan on May 1, 2026.

Overview

This instruction-only skill is a straightforward Brave image search helper; it uses a Brave API key as disclosed, with a minor metadata mismatch about that credential.

Before installing, make sure you are comfortable letting the skill use your Brave Search API key for image searches. The behavior is coherent and limited to Brave image search, but the registry metadata should ideally declare the BRAVE_API_KEY requirement.

Findings (1)

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

Installing or using the skill requires providing a Brave API key, which may incur usage against the user's Brave Search subscription.

Why it was flagged

The skill uses a Brave API key for authentication. This is expected for the stated Brave Search API purpose, but users should notice that the registry metadata lists no required env vars or primary credential.

Skill content
Requires BRAVE_API_KEY environment variable.
Recommendation

Use a dedicated Brave API key with the minimum necessary subscription permissions, monitor usage, and treat the metadata credential omission as a setup/documentation issue rather than hidden behavior.
