High Risk

Run SerpAPI searches via SerpAPI's MCP server using mcporter. Use when the user asks to search the web with SerpAPI/SerpAPI MCP, wants SerpAPI inside Clawdbot, or to use the /serp command.

๐Ÿ”’ Containment

Level: maximum

Required:
  • SANDBOX_CONTAINER: Code execution capability
Recommended:
  • LOG_ACTIONS: Audit trail for all actions

โšก Risks

Unauthorized tool use: INSTRUCTED_BINARY_INSTALL, MCP_SYS_CRITICAL_ACCESS high

Mitigation: Avoid instructing agents to install arbitrary binaries; bundle dependencies or use sandboxed environments

Command injection risk: COMMAND_INJECTION_USER_INPUT medium

Mitigation: Validate and sanitize all user inputs before using in commands

Social engineering indicators: SOCIAL_ENG_VAGUE_DESCRIPTION low

Mitigation: Provide clear, detailed description of skill functionality

Tool poisoning: hidden behaviors detected (MCP_TOOL_POISONING_SENSITIVE_DATA) high

Mitigation: Remove references to sensitive data collection.
