Query local public IP address

Security checks across static analysis, malware telemetry, and agentic risk

Overview

The skill appears to do what it claims: it runs a small Python script that queries public IP lookup services and prints the result.

This looks safe for its stated purpose. Be aware that it relies on third-party IP lookup services, so those services can see your public IP when the skill runs.

ASI07: Insecure Inter-Agent Communication
Low
What this means

Your public IP address and request metadata may be visible to the listed third-party services.

Why it was flagged

The script contacts external public IP lookup services. This is purpose-aligned, but those services will receive the connection and can observe the public IP lookup.

Recommendation

Install only if you are comfortable using those public IP lookup services; review or change the endpoint list if you prefer a specific provider.

Info
What this means

You have less information about where the skill came from or who maintains it.

Why it was flagged

The registry metadata does not identify an upstream source or homepage, which limits provenance context even though the included code is simple and fully visible.

Recommendation

Review the included script before use and prefer installing skills from maintainers or sources you trust.
