Security checks for vulnerabilities and agentic risk
The skill is read-only and mostly matches its Gate VIP/fee purpose, but it relies on mutable external runtime instructions and may read account details even for fee-only requests.
Review before installing. Use a Gate credential limited to Account:Read and Wallet:Read with no trading or withdrawal permissions, and be aware that the skill's current instructions may fetch account details during setup/detection and depend on external runtime rules that can change outside this package.

- `SKILL.md` keeps intent routing and rendering rules.
Skill grants unrestricted tool access without appropriate constraints. An agent with unfettered tool access can perform arbitrary actions including file modification, network requests, and code execution.
## General Rules
⚠️ STOP — You MUST read and strictly follow the shared runtime rules before proceeding.
Do NOT select or call any tool until all rules are read. These rules have the highest priority.
→ Read [gate-runtime-rules.md](https://github.com/gate/gate-skills/blob/master/skills/gate-runtime-rules.md)
- **Only call MCP tools explicitly listed in this skill.** Tools not documented here must NOT be called, even if they
exist in the MCP server.
