Is fofa search safe?

Clean risk

fofa search sends the active tab's host to FOFA lookup endpoints when its popup opens.

When you open the extension popup, it reads the active tab URL, strips it down to the host, and queries FOFA services for host information. The confirmed claim covers the host from the current tab URL used for those lookups, not page contents.
