Description
Estimate CO2 emissions from electricity use, flights, or vehicle travel using the Pipeworx Carbon Interface API.
Usage Guidance
This skill appears coherent with its stated purpose and is low-risk from an install/credential perspective, but the SKILL.md is incomplete and the source/homepage are unknown. Before installing: (1) ask the publisher for full documentation showing required inputs, authentication method, and sample requests/responses; (2) verify whether the gateway (gateway.pipeworx.io) is an official/trusted endpoint and what data will be transmitted (avoid sending PII if unsure); (3) prefer a version that declares required env vars for any API keys rather than relying on an implicit or hidden auth channel; (4) if you don't trust the source, do not enable autonomous invocation or restrict the skill's use until you can validate it.
Capability Analysis
Type: OpenClaw Skill
Name: pipeworx-carbon-interface
Version: 1.0.0
The skill bundle provides configuration and documentation for a Carbon Interface MCP server used to estimate CO2 emissions for electricity, flights, and vehicles. It contains no executable code or suspicious instructions, only a standard MCP server definition pointing to a remote gateway (gateway.pipeworx.io) in SKILL.md.
Capability Assessment
Purpose & Capability
Name/description match the SKILL.md methods (estimate_electricity, estimate_flight, estimate_vehicle) and the MCP server URL points at a carbon-interface gateway, so required capabilities align with the stated purpose.
Instruction Scope
The SKILL.md is very short and partly truncated; it lists the functions and an mcpServers entry (https://gateway.pipeworx.io/carbon-interface/mcp) but provides no runtime details about inputs, authentication, error handling, or what exactly will be sent. This makes runtime behavior underspecified and could cause the agent to send user data to the listed gateway without clear guidance.
Install Mechanism
Instruction-only skill with no install spec and no code files — lowest installation risk because nothing is written to disk by the skill itself.
Credentials
No environment variables, credentials, or config paths are requested. This is proportionate, though many Carbon APIs require an API key; the absence of any declared auth should be clarified (public gateway vs hidden/authenticated channel).
Persistence & Privilege
No elevated persistence requested (always:false). The skill does not ask to modify other skills or system settings.
How to Use
- Make sure OpenClaw is installed (local or Docker)
- Run the install command in chat:
/install pipeworx-carbon-interface - After installation, invoke the skill by name or use
/pipeworx-carbon-interface - Provide required inputs per the skill's parameter spec and get structured output
