Cmc Api Exchange

Security checks for vulnerabilities and agentic risk

Overview

This is a CoinMarketCap exchange API reference skill with no executable code or hidden behavior, though its trigger wording is somewhat broad.

Install is reasonable if you want CoinMarketCap exchange API help. Treat your CMC API key like a secret, verify generated curl commands before running them, and be aware the skill may be invoked for generic exchange API questions even when CoinMarketCap is not what you intended.

Vague Triggers

Medium
Confidence
91% confidence
Finding
The trigger guidance is overly broad because it activates on generic phrases like "exchange API" and "exchange volume API," which could match many unrelated user intents and cause the skill to be invoked when not specifically needed. In an agent setting, broad auto-invocation can steer conversations toward this skill’s instructions and tools unnecessarily, increasing the chance of irrelevant API guidance, tool use, or context hijacking by a less-appropriate skill.
