General Rules
⚠️ STOP — You MUST read and strictly follow the shared runtime rules before proceeding. Do NOT select or call any tool until all rules are read. These rules have the highest priority. → Read gate-runtime-rules.md
- Only call MCP tools explicitly listed in this skill. Tools not documented here must NOT be called, even if they exist in the MCP server.

MCP Mode
Read and strictly follow references/mcp.md, then execute this installer workflow.
SKILL.mdkeeps mode descriptions, quick-start semantics, and product guidance.references/mcp.mdis the authoritative execution layer for mcporter install sequencing, auth gates, and fallback policy.

./scripts/install.sh
# Selective installation
./scripts/install.sh --select

Installation Modes
1. Install All (Default)
./scripts/install.sh
Installs all configured servers. Prompts for Gate API credentials when adding gate (local).
2. Selective Install
./scripts/install.sh --select
# or
./scripts/install.sh -s
Interactive menu to choose a server (1–6).
Common Commands
# Market / info (no auth)
mcporter call gate-info.list_tickers currency_pair=BTC_USDT
mcporter call gate-news.list_news
# Remote CEX public — list tools first, then call cex_* tools
mcporter list gate-cex-pub
# Local CEX trading (requires API keys in mcporter env)
mcporter call gate.list_spot_accounts
# Remote CEX exchange (OAuth2) — authorize first
mcporter auth gate-cex-ex
# DEX (wallet; may require web3 + OAuth)
mcporter call gate-dex.list_balances
API Configuration
Getting API Keys (Local gate server)
- Visit https://www.gate.com/myaccount/profile/api-key/manage
- Create API key with permissions as needed (Read / Trade / Withdraw).
Gate-Dex authorization
When a gate-dex query returns "need authorization": (1) Open https://web3.gate.com/ to create or bind a wallet if needed; (2) Complete OAuth via the link the assistant provides.
Remote CEX exchange (OAuth2)
After install, run mcporter auth gate-cex-ex and complete Gate OAuth2 in the browser.
Storing Credentials
The installer stores credentials in mcporter config where applicable.
Troubleshooting
mcporter not found
npm install -g mcporter
Connection failed
- Verify API keys are correct (for
gate) - For
gate-cex-ex, runmcporter auth gate-cex-ex - Check network:
mcporter daemon statusif using daemon

Usage Guidance
Before installing, review the install.sh script and ensure you trust mcporter and the Gate endpoints (gate.com / api.gatemcp.ai). Be aware the installer will prompt you to enter Gate API Key and Secret and will store them in mcporter's config — back up your mcporter config if needed. Confirm the embedded DEX API key (MCP_AK_8W2N7Q) is intended to be public; if unsure, ask the skill author. Note: the script expects a servers.manifest at scripts/mcp-fragments/openclaw/servers.manifest which is not included here; the installer may fail unless that file exists in your repository. Run the installer in a controlled environment (or inspect/modify the script) if you have concerns about where credentials are stored or configuration changes.
Capability Analysis
Type: OpenClaw Skill
Name: gate-mcp-openclaw-installer
Version: 1.0.3
The bundle is a functional installer for Gate MCP (Model Context Protocol) servers, designed to work with the `mcporter` CLI tool. The core logic in `scripts/install.sh` automates the configuration of various financial data and trading endpoints (CEX, DEX, News) and correctly handles sensitive inputs like API keys using secure prompts. While the `SKILL.md` uses authoritative language to direct the AI agent and references external runtime rules, these instructions appear aimed at ensuring a successful installation workflow rather than performing malicious actions or exfiltrating data.
Capability Assessment
Purpose & Capability
The name/description match the provided behavior: an installer that configures Gate MCP servers via mcporter. The script only requires mcporter and interactively-collected Gate API credentials for the local 'gate' server, which is proportionate to the stated purpose.
Instruction Scope
SKILL.md and references describe running scripts/install.sh and follow-up auth flows; the installer script implements those steps. Two notes: (1) the install script expects a manifest at scripts/mcp-fragments/openclaw/servers.manifest, but that manifest is not present in the provided package (this will cause runtime failure unless the manifest exists elsewhere in the repo). (2) The script adds API keys/secrets into mcporter config (via mcporter config add) — this is expected for an installer but means credentials will be stored in mcporter's configuration.
Install Mechanism
No remote downloads or package installs are embedded in the skill; it's instruction-only with bundled shell scripts. Nothing is fetched from untrusted URLs or extracted on disk by the skill itself.
Credentials
The skill declares no required env vars. At runtime it prompts the user for Gate API Key and Secret when needed and places them into mcporter config — appropriate for a CEX installer. It also uses a hard-coded DEX API key (GATE_DEX_API_KEY=MCP_AK_8W2N7Q) embedded in the script; verify that this key is intended to be public before trusting it. The script references a token placeholder (GATE_MCP_TOKEN) for Authorization headers but does not itself request or exfiltrate other credentials.
Persistence & Privilege
The skill does not request always:true, does not attempt to modify other skills, and its persistence is limited to writing configuration into mcporter (its intended target). This is within expected scope for an installer.
How to Use
- Make sure OpenClaw is installed (local or Docker)
- Run the install command in chat:
/install gate-mcp-openclaw-installer - After installation, invoke the skill by name or use
/gate-mcp-openclaw-installer - Provide required inputs per the skill's parameter spec and get structured output
