unsafe-api-consumption
Detects code that consumes third-party API responses without type validation or sanitization. Use when writing code that calls third-party APIs, parses responses from external services, or integrates with webhooks and callbacks from external systems. Also invoke when deserializing or acting on data received from partner or vendor APIs without validation.
Install
With your agent
Install OMGSkills skill "thejefflarson/soundcheck:.claude/skills/unsafe-api-consumption" into this agent's normal skills directory: call the OMGSkills MCP get_install_plan tool for your agent and run the script it returns (it installs only the pinned commit and verifies SKILL.md), and stop if MCP or the pin is unavailable. Do not overwrite or change existing skills without asking me.
Manual command
git clone https://github.com/thejefflarson/soundcheck /tmp/soundcheck && ln -s /tmp/soundcheck/.claude/skills/unsafe-api-consumption ~/.claude/skills/unsafe-api-consumption
From README
Unsafe API Consumption Check (API10:2023) What this checks Protects against blindly trusting data from third-party APIs. External API responses can be tampered with (via MITM, compromised provider, or supply-chain attack), contain unexpected types or malicious payloads, or change without notice. Treating external data as trusted leads to injection, deserialization attacks, and business logic bypass.
