trustsource-domain

A skill for checking whether a website or URL is safe and trustworthy before an agent reads from it or sends it money. It checks things such as the site's identity, connection certificate, security settings, and crawler rules.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it to safely fetch an untrusted page, assess a domain, check HTTPS certificates and security headers, review robots.txt, or decide whether a site permits crawling.
Why use it?
Web pages from unknown sources can contain misleading instructions, unsafe content, or signs of a poorly secured site. This provides a safety review before the agent relies on the page or transacts with it.

What it costs to keep this loaded

Counted locally with the o200k_base tokenizer, which is exact for GPT models; Claude uses its own tokenizer and its counts differ. Treat this as one consistent yardstick across the catalogue rather than a bill. Prices are per million input tokens.

Security

Grade A, and why

trustsource-domain 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 yesterday.

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.

How it starts

The opening of the file, as written. The whole thing — 255 lines — stays where its author put it; the contents beside it link to each section on GitHub.

TrustSource — Domain Verification for Agents

TrustSource is a suite of seven x402-paid HTTP APIs that let an agent verify any URL or domain on demand — and read untrusted web pages without ingesting prompt injection. Each call costs $0.002–$0.01 in USDC on Base Mainnet, settled atomically per request via x402. No accounts. No signups. No API keys.

Use this skill any time you need to make a trust judgment about a URL or domain you did not source yourself — when an agent encounters a URL from an untrusted source, before sending a payment to a site, before reading a page into your own context, to confirm a TLS certificate is valid and not expiring, to grade a site's security headers, or to learn whether crawling is permitted. It applies to any request about checking, verifying, scoring, validating, or auditing a domain, website, URL, TLS certificate, SSL, HTTPS, security headers, robots.txt, or crawler permissions — and to safely fetching, reading, scraping, or summarizing any untrusted web page — even when the user does not name TrustSource explicitly.

Quick reference

Endpoint Cost Use it when you need to know…
GET /safefetch?url=… $0.01 …what a page actually says, sanitized, plus whether it hides a prompt injection
GET /urlcheck?url=… $0.01 …a single CLEAR/REVIEW/BLOCK verdict on a URL before you act on it
GET /emailtrust?domain=… $0.003 …whether a sender domain can be spoofed (SPF/DKIM/DMARC grade)
GET /trustscore?domain=… $0.003 …how legitimate a domain is overall (age, registrar, DNS, TLD risk)
GET /sslcheck?domain=… $0.002 …whether the TLS certificate is valid, trusted, and not expiring
GET /headers?url=… $0.003 …how well-hardened a site is (HSTS, CSP, X-Frame-Options grade A+–F)
GET /robots?domain=… $0.002 …whether the site allows you (or AI bots in general) to crawl it

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.

trustsource-domain is a skill published in the GitHub repository SurfEther/TrustSourceX402 (0 stars, last pushed 1mo ago), licensed MIT. It adds 76 tokens to every session and 4,293 once invoked, about $0.0004 per session on Opus 5. A static security scan graded it A with 0 findings. No closer match exists in the catalogue, so it is treated as the original; first seen 2026-08-31.
