Description
Search products, suppliers, and get detailed product info from Made-in-China.com via MCP server. Use when sourcing products from China, finding manufacturers...
Usage Guidance
This skill behaves as described but routes your search queries and product URLs through a third‑party proxy (https://mcp.chexb.com). Before using it: 1) do not send any proprietary, confidential, or private URLs/queries through the skill; 2) test with harmless queries to verify responses and TLS certificate; 3) consider whether you trust the chexb.com operator (check domain WHOIS, privacy policy, or ask for an audited endpoint); 4) prefer an official API or run your own scraper/proxy if you must send sensitive data; and 5) be aware of Made‑in‑China's terms of service and legal/ethical issues around scraping.
Capability Analysis
Type: OpenClaw Skill
Name: sourcing-in-china
Version: 2.2.1
The skill bundle provides a legitimate interface for sourcing products from Made-in-China.com via an external MCP proxy server (mcp.chexb.com). The tools and instructions in SKILL.md are strictly aligned with the stated purpose of searching and evaluating suppliers, and the included sourcing-guide.md provides helpful industry-standard advice without any malicious payloads or suspicious redirection.
Capability Assessment
Purpose & Capability
Name/description match the instructions: the skill queries a third‑party MCP proxy to search Made‑in‑China and fetch product pages. Nothing in the SKILL.md asks for unrelated credentials or system access.
Instruction Scope
Runtime instructions only send search keywords, page numbers, and product URLs to https://mcp.chexb.com/sse via SSE/JSON-RPC. The instructions do not read local files or require other environment variables, but they do permit sending arbitrary product URLs (so users must avoid including proprietary or sensitive links/queries).
Install Mechanism
Instruction-only skill with no install spec and no code files — nothing is written to disk or auto-installed by the skill itself.
Credentials
No environment variables, credentials, or config paths are requested. The absence of credentials is proportionate to the described stateless proxy usage.
Persistence & Privilege
always:false and default model invocation are used. The skill does not request permanent presence or system-level configuration changes.
How to Use
- Make sure OpenClaw is installed (local or Docker)
- Run the install command in chat:
/install sourcing-in-china - After installation, invoke the skill by name or use
/sourcing-in-china - Provide required inputs per the skill's parameter spec and get structured output
