websearch — independently scanned and version-tracked by SaferSkills.
SaferSkills independently audited websearch (Agent Skill) and scored it 91/100 (green). The audit ran 55 deterministic rules across Security, Supply Chain, Maintenance, Transparency, and Community; it found 1 high-severity and 0 lower-severity findings. The full rule-by-rule trace and per-finding evidence are below. Free, methodology-open.

A fenced bash/python block in SKILL.md carries a natural-language imperative — "now run this", "execute the following command" — directing the agent to execute the fenced content. What looks like documentation becomes an executable payload the agent may run without ever asking you.

Use the live Exa tool schemas, not remembered parameter names. Quick lookup: one focused search, then answer with citations. Documentation: find the official page and crawl the relevant section only. Code/debug: use code context, then broaden only when the first results do not answer the issue. News: preserve publication dates. Compare: search the actual alternatives. Research/similar: use supported search parameters; never invent an enum value.
Honor --domain/--exclude, --after/--before, -n, --fresh and requested output format when the tool supports them; explain unsupported filters. Prefer short relevant excerpts, not full pages. Crawl a full passage when needed to verify a key claim. Do not paste raw response metadata twice.
--deep permits targeted follow-ups for named remaining gaps, up to three passes including the initial search. Stop sooner when answered, saturated or no new useful evidence appears. No fixed quota of queries or sources. Run independent tool calls together without launching agents for simple lookups.
Cite each source that supports a claim; distinguish observed facts, inference and uncertainty. Keep dates honest. Write a report only with --save or an explicit request. --json returns structured results. --info uses the existing references/info-text.md.
Work solo. Ask before any subagent or reviewer, even in auto mode. Explain the independent scope and expected benefit first. No hidden advisor, nested delegation, model retuning, repeated successful checks, or progress spam. Use existing context before asking questions. Stop when the requested result is delivered. User stops and scope changes override pending steps.
