high confidenceCredentials
Reads the configured provider credential or the named Perplexity/OpenRouter environment variables. Requests include the API key and search query; a configured base URL changes their destination.
Install Mechanism
Uses standard OpenClaw/npm plugin installation and packaged JavaScript entry points. The package declares no installation lifecycle scripts.
Instruction Scope
No bundled skills or unrelated agent instructions are present. Search responses are marked as untrusted external content. SkillSpector was not applicable; the runtime was inspected independently.
Persistence & Privilege
Uses host-managed search caching with a configurable lifetime. The supplied code contains no independent background workers, local content indexing, destructive operations, or privilege escalation.
Purpose & Capability
The runtime registers a web-search provider and sends search queries to Perplexity, OpenRouter, or a user-configured endpoint, consistent with its stated purpose.
Assessment
Search queries go to the selected provider and may incur API charges. Only configure a custom base URL you trust, because it receives your API key and queries. Search results are cached through the host. The integration matches the documented setup: [OpenClaw Perplexity search](https://docs.openclaw.ai/tools/perplexity-search).Verification
