Credentials
Search requests send queries and the configured Brave API key to Brave or a user-configured compatible proxy. Optional diagnostics log queries. These behaviors fit the disclosed search integration; no broad filesystem or session-store access was found.
✓
Install Mechanism
Standard OpenClaw plugin installation loads the bundled JavaScript entry point. No package lifecycle scripts, executable downloads, or shell execution were found.
✓
Instruction Scope
No bundled skills, agent-policy overrides, or unrelated actions were found. SkillSpector was inapplicable; this assessment independently examined the executable plugin code.
✓
Persistence & Privilege
The plugin uses host configuration and TTL-controlled search caching. HTTP execution loads when searches run; no background workers, privilege escalation, destructive operations, or additional persistence mechanisms were found.
✓
Purpose & Capability
The inspected code registers a search provider supporting web and LLM-context results, consistent with its README and [OpenClaw documentation](https://docs.openclaw.ai/tools/brave-search).
Assessment
Search queries leave your system. Keep your API key private, use only trusted proxy endpoints because they receive both queries and the key, and remember that enabling Brave HTTP diagnostics records queries in logs.
