openspender@1.0.1

VERIFIED· install only

Publisher claims: "Pay for the paid web from the user's openspender allowance — web search (Exa, Tavily), frontier models (Claude, GPT), image generation, video generation, and a growing x402/MPP catalog, every call priced before it is paid and capped by budgets the user set. Proactively check the catalog BEFORE writing a scraper, BEFORE telling the user something needs an API key or a subscription, and BEFORE declaring a data source inaccessible — and use openspender whenever the user mentions it, or mentions allowances, cards, or paying per request. Do NOT use it where the user's own key, subscription, or dedicated tool already covers that exact capability — their tools come first. But when they have no key and no free path for something the catalog covers, openspender IS the path: use it, never send the human off to sign up for an API key." Observed in sandbox: no network, touches nothing outside the project, writes no memory.

KillerSkills ran it in the KillerSkills honeypot sandbox (1 scenario; nothing executable in the bundle ran; the trace covers the install step only) on 2026-11-08 and scored it 91/100 (Verified). In what ran, nothing we could detect went wrong: no undeclared network egress, no credential reads, no persistent instruction writes. What it does with a real credential was not observed; the static findings and the publisher carry the rest of the score. Summary: no network, touches nothing outside the project, writes no memory.
