✓ SAFE Basic audit · rule-based scan · 42 published rules

Yes — browser-use passed AgentSkillsHub's rule-based security scan with no dangerous patterns detected. As with any third-party skill, confirm what credentials it requests before production use.

What it is: Open-source Python library for AI browser agents, plus Browser Use Cloud: stealth browsers and a hosted agent API.

No dangerous patterns were detected: no credential exfiltration, no obfuscated downloads, no sandbox-escape attempts, no prompt-injection markers.

This is AgentSkillsHub's free basic audit: an automated rule-based scan with 42 published rules built on SlowMist's agent-security taxonomy (credential theft, obfuscated payloads, privilege escalation, covert instructions to the agent, and more) across 186,000+ open-source AI agent skills and MCP servers, refreshed every 8 hours. A SAFE grade is a scan result, not a guarantee — deep 5-dimension audits (code · credentials · vendor · supply-chain · operational) are available for enterprise. Audited: 2026-10-22.
