**Credentials & Network**

`EVOLINK_API_KEY` is required to call the EvoLink API. Your search queries are sent to `api.evolink.ai` for processing. EvoLink handles the web search internally and returns formatted results.

**File Access**

This skill does not read or write any files.

**Network Access**

This skill makes network requests to:
- **EvoLink API** (`api.evolink.ai`) - to perform web searches

All network calls are performed via curl and can be audited in the script source code.

**Persistence & Privilege**

This skill does not modify other skills or system settings. No elevated or persistent privileges are requested.
