Description
Query crypto project details, Web3 investor info, funding rounds, trending projects, and personnel job changes from RootData. Use this skill when the user as...
Usage Guidance
This skill appears to do what it claims: query RootData for crypto projects, investors, funding rounds, trending projects, and personnel moves. Before installing, confirm you trust api.rootdata.com and are comfortable with the agent storing a single API key (ROOTDATA_SKILL_KEY) in its environment/config. The SKILL.md instructs generating an anonymous key via /open/skill/init and saving it locally — verify how your agent platform persists environment variables and whether you need that key to be revocable. Note a minor metadata mismatch (the included _meta.json lists version 1.0.2 while the package is 1.0.3) — this looks like a packaging oversight, not a security issue. If you need stronger guarantees, ask the skill author or RootData for documentation about the permissions and lifecycle of keys created by /open/skill/init.
Capability Analysis
Type: OpenClaw Skill
Name: rootdata-crypto
Version: 1.0.3
The rootdata-crypto skill provides a legitimate interface for querying cryptocurrency market data, funding rounds, and personnel movements via the RootData API (api.rootdata.com). It includes a standard initialization process to obtain an API key and stores it in a dedicated environment variable, with no evidence of data exfiltration, malicious execution, or harmful prompt injection.
Capability Assessment
Purpose & Capability
The name/description (crypto project/investor/funding/personnel queries) matches the declared requirement (ROOTDATA_SKILL_KEY) and the SKILL.md exclusively documents calls to api.rootdata.com. No unrelated services, binaries, or credentials are requested.
Instruction Scope
Runtime instructions are limited to calling RootData's documented endpoints and returning fields from those responses. The only cross-cutting action is creating/storing an anonymous key from /open/skill/init and using it in Authorization headers; the skill does not instruct reading other files, system paths, or unrelated environment variables.
Install Mechanism
There is no install spec and no code files to write or execute. This instruction-only skill does not download or install packages, minimizing on-disk risk.
Credentials
The skill requests a single environment variable (ROOTDATA_SKILL_KEY) which is proportional to the need to authenticate to the RootData API. The SKILL.md states the key is an anonymous, low-privilege key for public data endpoints—this matches the declared scope. Users should note the skill asks the agent to persist the key as an environment variable.
Persistence & Privilege
The skill is not always-enabled and does not request elevated privileges. It instructs the agent to save the returned api_key as an environment variable; depending on the host platform this may persist the key in agent configuration or memory. This behavior is expected for the skill's function but is worth confirming with your platform's persistence model.
How to Use
- Make sure OpenClaw is installed (local or Docker)
- Run the install command in chat:
/install rootdata-crypto - After installation, invoke the skill by name or use
/rootdata-crypto - Provide required inputs per the skill's parameter spec and get structured output
