AgentWeb.live — Global Business Directory

ReviewAudited by ClawScan on May 10, 2026.

Overview

This is mostly a coherent business-directory lookup skill, but it can send account/contact data to a third-party API and may submit business-data reports without clearly requiring user approval.

Install only if you are comfortable using AgentWeb.live as a third-party directory service. Prefer providing your own API key, avoid putting the key in URLs, and require explicit confirmation before the agent contributes or reports any business data.

Findings (4)

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

The agent could submit a report about a business listing to AgentWeb.live based on its own determination, which may affect public business-directory data.

Why it was flagged

Reporting incorrect, spam, duplicate, or closed business data is a mutating action against a third-party directory. Unlike contribution, the workflow does not explicitly require user approval before submitting a report.

Skill content
If data is wrong → `POST /v1/report`
Recommendation

Only allow reports after the user explicitly confirms the exact business ID, report type, and details to submit.

What this means

Using the auto-registration option shares the user's email with AgentWeb.live and creates a service API key for the session.

Why it was flagged

The skill discloses that it may send the user's email to AgentWeb.live to obtain an API key. This is purpose-aligned, but it is still account/contact information shared with a third party.

Skill content
Give me your email and I'll register for you right now (your email is sent to agentweb.live to create the key)
Recommendation

Prefer creating the API key yourself on AgentWeb.live, and only provide an email if you are comfortable sharing it with that service.

What this means

The AgentWeb API key may be visible in generated curl commands or logs if query-parameter authentication is used.

Why it was flagged

The skill permits putting the API key in the URL query string, and the examples use that style. Query-string credentials can be more easily exposed in logs, command histories, or shared URLs than header-based credentials.

Skill content
Auth: `?api_key=KEY` or header `X-API-Key: KEY`
Recommendation

Use the `X-API-Key` or `Authorization: Bearer` header rather than placing the key in the URL.

What this means

A user reviewing only the registry requirements might not realize an AgentWeb API key is needed until reading the skill instructions.

Why it was flagged

The registry summary under-declares the credential requirement even though SKILL.md states that an API key and `AGENTWEB_API_KEY` are used. The skill itself discloses this, so this is a metadata clarity issue rather than hidden credential use.

Skill content
Required env vars: none ... Primary credential: none
Recommendation

Update the registry metadata so `AGENTWEB_API_KEY` is declared as the primary credential.
