安全使用建议
Before installing: 1) Understand that this skill sends your search queries to a third‑party Apify actor (grant-finder-mcp.apify.actor) rather than directly to Grants.gov — treat it as an external service and consider whether you trust it with your queries. 2) Review the GitHub repo (https://github.com/martc03/gov-mcp-servers) and the Apify actor implementation to verify how data is handled and whether it logs or stores queries. 3) If you want to avoid persisting the server config, run mcporter/add commands in a throwaway or sandboxed profile or manually invoke calls without adding to your global ~/.openclaw/mcp.json. 4) Prefer a connector that calls Grants.gov directly if you need stronger privacy assurances. 5) If you proceed, monitor network traffic to see what is sent, and avoid sending sensitive PII or credentials through this skill.
功能分析
Type: OpenClaw Skill
Name: gov-grants
Version: 1.0.0
The skill bundle defines a 'gov-grants' skill, its tools, and setup instructions. It transparently declares external dependencies, including a homepage on GitHub and an MCP server hosted on `https://grant-finder-mcp.apify.actor/mcp`. While relying on a third-party service introduces a supply chain risk, the provided files contain no evidence of intentional harmful behavior, prompt injection attempts, obfuscation, or instructions for unauthorized data exfiltration or malicious execution. The external connections are explicitly for the skill's stated purpose of searching federal grants.
能力评估
Purpose & Capability
The skill's name/description is a Grants.gov searcher, which is coherent with needing an MCP connector. However the runtime instructions point to a third‑party endpoint (https://grant-finder-mcp.apify.actor/mcp) rather than directly calling Grants.gov. The SKILL.md also claims "All data from free US government APIs," which is misleading because the traffic will go to the Apify actor. The required binary (mcporter) is plausible for adding an MCP server, but the use of an external aggregator deserves scrutiny.
Instruction Scope
The SKILL.md tells the agent/user to add a server URL using mcporter or by editing ~/.openclaw/mcp.json. That will cause the agent to send queries to the specified apify.actor endpoint. The instructions do not request other local files or credentials, but they do instruct writing to the user's OpenClaw MCP config (a persistent, user‑scoped config change) which is not declared in the skill's manifest.
Install Mechanism
This is an instruction-only skill with no install spec or code files (lower file-system risk). The only required binary is mcporter, which is reasonable for MCP connectors. The higher risk here is network: the skill depends on a third‑party hosted service (Apify actor) that will receive queries.
Credentials
The skill declares no required environment variables or credentials (reasonable). However it instructs updating ~/.openclaw/mcp.json, yet the manifest's 'required config paths' lists none — this inconsistency is notable. Also, although no credentials are requested, sending queries to an external server may expose sensitive query content (search terms, identifiers) despite the skill claiming direct government API usage.
Persistence & Privilege
The skill is not marked 'always' and does not request elevated privileges, but its setup explicitly instructs adding a persistent server entry to the agent's MCP config (~/.openclaw/mcp.json). That causes ongoing outbound communications to a third‑party endpoint whenever the connector is used and persists beyond a single invocation. The manifest did not flag this persistence.
