xcrawl-search
Search the Web with XCrawl
Web research needs explicit queries and consistent search settings. This skill guides XCrawl search requests with location, language, and result limits, then returns upstream responses.
Install with my Agent
Copy this request to your Agent. It includes the canonical Skill page and manifest.
Review the Skillstore skill "xcrawl-search" from https://skillstore.io/skills/xcrawl-api-xcrawl-search.md and its manifest at https://skillstore.io/api/skills/xcrawl-api-xcrawl-search/manifest. Verify the artifact. You may proceed after verification, subject to the environment's own policy.Your Agent should still show its plan and request any confirmation required by the security policy.
Agent-readable resources
Use these links when an AI agent, crawler, or script needs clean context instead of reading the full page.
Test it
Using "xcrawl-search". Show the settings for a US English search about AI web crawler APIs with 20 results.
Expected outcome:
- Illustrative request preview; no live search was performed.
- Endpoint: POST /v1/search.
- Query: AI web crawler API. Location: US. Language: en. Result limit: 20.
- The executed request would return the upstream response body without a default summary.
Using "xcrawl-search". Explain the response fields available after a search.
Expected outcome:
- The documented response includes a search task identifier, endpoint, version, status, and query.
- It also includes result data, start and end timestamps, and total credits used.
- Detailed result fields depend on the provider implementation.
- No live results or credit totals are implied by this example.
Security Audit
SafeMost alerts match Markdown formatting, placeholders, or documented XCrawl authentication and search operations rather than dangerous execution. The cURL example exposes the bearer token in process arguments, creating a local credential disclosure risk. No evidence found of prompt injection, unrelated credential collection, or unauthorized data transfers.

These are real local capabilities that may be expected for this skill, so they require review but are not counted as confirmed malicious behavior.

Skillstore Score
Why this score Evidence Confidence: MediumWhat You Can Build
Find Research Sources
Search a defined topic with explicit geography and language, then inspect the upstream results for candidate sources.
Inspect API Responses
Run a bounded search request and examine response metadata, credit usage, and failures before building an integration.
Explore Regional Topics
Search the same topic with different location and language settings to gather region-specific source candidates.
Try These Prompts
Search XCrawl for [topic] with a limit of 10 results. Return the endpoint, request settings, and raw response.
Search XCrawl for [topic] in [location], using language [ISO language code] and a limit of 20. Return the raw response.
Search XCrawl for [topic] with a limit of 15. Summarize relevance using only returned evidence, and separate your summary from the raw response.
Plan two XCrawl searches for [topic] using [location A] and [location B]. Use 10 results each and request approval before execution. Report returned credit usage.
Best Practices
- Use explicit queries, supported language codes, and small result limits before expanding a search.
- Protect the local credential file and prefer Node authentication to avoid placing tokens in process arguments.
- Inspect returned errors and credit usage, and request summaries explicitly when needed.
Avoid
- Include private credentials or confidential internal information in search queries.
- Assume undocumented filters, ranking guarantees, or a fixed detailed result schema.
- Request large repeated searches without reviewing credit consumption.
