Exposed MCP Tools (1)

moderate
search

Queries Google or fetches a URL, returning cleaned page content.

Can fetch arbitrary URLs and execute JavaScript, potentially exposing the agent to malicious content.

Safety Assessment

This MCP server is relatively safe for read-only web browsing. However, the ability to fetch arbitrary URLs and execute JavaScript introduces some risk. Ensure proper input validation and content sanitization to mitigate potential threats.

  • Limited to web browsing and content extraction.
  • No direct system-level access.
  • Uses Apify's sandboxed environment.
  • Configuration options for request timeouts.
  • Can fetch content from any URL, potentially exposing the agent to malicious sites.
  • Depends on the security of the RAG Web Browser Actor.
  • Potential for information leakage if extracted content contains sensitive data.
  • The `scrapingTool` option allows JavaScript execution, increasing the attack surface.
