Description
Search worldwide universities by name or country and retrieve their names, locations, domains, and website URLs.
Usage Guidance
This skill does what it says: it sends your search requests to an external Pipeworx gateway and returns results. Before installing: (1) don't send sensitive or confidential data through it — queries are transmitted to a third party; (2) note the author/source is unknown and there is no homepage—if you need higher assurance ask for source code or a known publisher; (3) verify gateway.pipeworx.io (TLS cert, operator) if you must use it; (4) if you need an offline or self-hosted solution, avoid this skill or substitute a trusted data provider.
Capability Analysis
Type: OpenClaw Skill
Name: pipeworx-universities
Version: 1.0.0
The skill bundle provides a legitimate tool for searching university data via an external MCP gateway (gateway.pipeworx.io). The SKILL.md file contains standard documentation and examples for the search_universities tool without any evidence of malicious instructions, data exfiltration, or suspicious execution patterns.
Capability Assessment
Purpose & Capability
The name/description (search universities by name/country and return names, locations, domains, URLs) matches the instructions which call a remote universities API at gateway.pipeworx.io. No unrelated environment variables, binaries, or installs are requested. Note: the package/source is listed as unknown and there's no homepage, which reduces attribution/trust.
Instruction Scope
SKILL.md only instructs making JSON-RPC POST calls to https://gateway.pipeworx.io/universities/mcp with search parameters; it does not instruct reading local files or environment variables. However, all query text and any user-provided input will be transmitted to a third-party endpoint, which is a privacy concern (possible exfiltration of sensitive query content).
Install Mechanism
No install spec and no code files — this is instruction-only, so nothing is written to disk or installed by the skill itself.
Credentials
The skill requests no environment variables, credentials, or config paths. This is proportionate for a read-only lookup API.
Persistence & Privilege
always is false and model invocation is allowed (platform default). The skill does not request persistent/system privileges or modify other skills/configuration.
How to Use
- Make sure OpenClaw is installed (local or Docker)
- Run the install command in chat:
