metasearch

metasearch is an MCP server for Claude Code from paperfoot/search-cli. Its token cost is not measured, scanned A, original, MIT.

A remotely hosted search service connected through MCP, a standard way for an AI tool to call an external service. Its configuration points to metasearch.sh and uses an API key.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it as a configured connection to the metasearch service; the supplied information does not specify more concrete jobs.
Why use it?
The description only identifies the connection and service location, so it does not provide enough detail to explain the search features or results.

Security

Grade A, and why

metasearch scanned grade A with 0 findings against 26 rules in 11 categories — prompt injection, anti-refusal, data exfiltration, privilege escalation, supply chain, agent snooping, system-prompt leakage, SSRF and excessive agency — measured 4d ago.

A static scan of the body, not an audit. Every finding is printed with the line that produced it so you can judge whether it matters here. A mod is markdown that instructs an agent; that is exactly why what it instructs is worth reading.

Nothing flagged

None of the 26 patterns this scan looks for appear in this file: no shell pipes, no recursive deletes, no credential paths, no hidden text, no instruction-override or anti-refusal phrasing, no agent-config snooping. That is not a guarantee, it is the absence of the things that are checkable.

What this file has done since we first saw it

Hashed on every crawl. A supply-chain change to an agent config is a question of when, not whether, so the history is kept rather than the latest state alone.
