Description
Find cheapest reliable subscription offers from Plati using the local MCP server. Use when users ask for best price options, reliable sellers, PRO/Plus subsc...
Usage Guidance
This skill appears to do what it says, but before installing: 1) Verify the npm package (plati-mcp-server) on npmjs.org / its source repo and check publisher reputation and recent releases. 2) Prefer installing in a sandbox/VM or use a non-global install to limit host impact. 3) Inspect the package code (or its GitHub) if possible for network calls or credential access. 4) Be aware results may contain external links from sellers — treat links cautiously. 5) If you cannot vet the package, do not install it globally on a production machine.
Capability Analysis
Type: OpenClaw Skill
Name: plati-mcp-search
Version: 0.1.6
The SKILL.md file instructs the AI agent to execute shell commands, specifically `npm i -g plati-mcp-server` and `plati-mcp-server`, as prerequisites for its operation. While these instructions are presented as necessary setup for the skill's functionality, they represent a significant security risk (Remote Code Execution vulnerability) if the AI agent is designed to automatically parse and execute such commands without explicit user consent or robust sandboxing. This falls under 'risky capabilities without clear malicious intent' rather than direct malicious action by the skill itself.
Capability Assessment
Purpose & Capability
The name/description (search Plati via local MCP server) matches the instructions: install a plati-mcp-server npm package, run a local MCP server named plati-scraper, and call the find_cheapest_reliable_options tool with the listed parameters.
Instruction Scope
SKILL.md confines runtime actions to installing/running a local MCP server and processing its results. It does not instruct reading unrelated system files, other credentials, or exfiltrating data to external endpoints beyond including links returned by MCP results.
Install Mechanism
There is no registry install spec; the README instructs the user to run `npm i -g plati-mcp-server`. A global npm installation is a reasonable way to provide a local server but carries moderate risk because the package will run arbitrary code on the host. The package source/version are not verified in the skill.
Credentials
The skill declares no required environment variables or credentials. The only env var mentioned (PLATI_MCP_STDERR) is for debug logging and is not sensitive.
Persistence & Privilege
The skill does not request always:true and is user-invocable. It asks the operator to configure a local MCP server in the agent config — this requires permission to run/launch local processes and to modify local agent config, which is expected for a local scraper but worth noting.
How to Use
- Make sure OpenClaw is installed (local or Docker)
- Run the install command in chat:
/install plati-mcp-search - After installation, invoke the skill by name or use
/plati-mcp-search - Provide required inputs per the skill's parameter spec and get structured output
