Is Podsmaster - Podcast Aggregator safe?

Low risk

Podsmaster - Podcast Aggregator includes PodcastIndex API credentials in its packaged JavaScript.

The bundled UI and offscreen scripts contain a PodcastIndex API key and signing secret used to authorize PodcastIndex requests. When the extension calls the PodcastIndex search endpoint, it sends the derived authorization header and API key to PodcastIndex.
