/install spacex
Description
CLI for AI agents to lookup SpaceX launches and rockets for their humans. No auth required.
Usage Guidance
This skill's purpose and required tools look reasonable for a SpaceX CLI, but do not install or run it blindly. Key concerns: (1) the package lacks the ./spacex script the agent is instructed to run—verify the repository actually provides that executable; (2) README clone URL and declared homepage differ—confirm the correct, trusted source; (3) SKILL.md contains unicode-control characters (possible prompt-injection/obfuscation) — open the file in a hex/clean-text viewer or remove control chars before use. If you install, inspect the cloned files to ensure there are no unexpected scripts, and run networked components in a sandbox or VM if you want extra safety. Provide the actual script or a trusted upstream release URL to raise confidence.
Capability Analysis
Type: OpenClaw Skill
Name: spacex
Version: 1.0.0
The skill bundle is a straightforward CLI wrapper for the SpaceX API. It requires `bash`, `curl`, and `jq`, which are standard tools for making HTTP requests and parsing JSON, aligning with its stated purpose. The `SKILL.md` provides clear, functional instructions for the AI agent on how to use the `spacex` tool, without any evidence of prompt injection attempts to mislead the agent or perform unauthorized actions. There are no signs of data exfiltration, malicious execution, persistence, or obfuscation in the provided files.
Capability Assessment
Purpose & Capability
Name/description, required binaries (bash, curl, jq), and API usage (api.spacexdata.com) align with a SpaceX lookup CLI. However the README suggests cloning a different repo (jeffaf/spacex-skill) while the homepage points at the SpaceX-API repo, which is inconsistent.
Instruction Scope
Runtime instructions tell the agent to run a wrapper script at {skill_folder}/spacex (./spacex launches ...), but this package contains only README.md and SKILL.md—no script files are present. That mismatch means the instructions assume an executable that isn't provided here. SKILL.md otherwise limits actions to calling the public SpaceX API, but the pre-scan found unicode-control-chars (prompt-injection) in the SKILL.md, which is suspicious and could hide or manipulate content.
Install Mechanism
There is no install spec (instruction-only), which is low risk. But README suggests cloning a third-party GitHub repo (https://github.com/jeffaf/spacex-skill.git) that's different from the declared homepage; downloading/cloning external repos should be verified before running.
Credentials
The skill does not request any environment variables, credentials, or config paths—this is proportional for a public API lookup tool that requires no auth.
Persistence & Privilege
always is false and the skill does not request elevated persistence or to modify other skills; default autonomous invocation is allowed (platform default) and is not by itself a red flag.
