PassAudited by ClawScan on May 1, 2026.

Overview

This is a coherent connector to FirstData’s hosted data-source lookup service, with disclosed external MCP use and a long-lived API token that users should protect.

Before installing, verify that you trust the FirstData domain and project, protect the FIRSTDATA_API_KEY, avoid sending sensitive private data in lookup queries, and consider manual MCP configuration or a pinned MCPorter version instead of running an unpinned npx setup command.

Findings (3)

Artifact-based informational review of SKILL.md, metadata, install specs, static scan signals, and capability signals. ClawScan does not execute the skill or run runtime probes.

What this means

Lookup requests and any context included in them may be sent to the external FirstData MCP service.

Why it was flagged

The skill routes use through an external MCP provider whose tool list is obtained remotely. This is disclosed and aligned with the skill's purpose, but it creates a provider boundary users should notice.

Skill content
This skill connects to the FirstData MCP server (`firstdata.deepminer.com.cn`) ... Once connected, browse the tool list provided by the firstdata MCP
Recommendation

Use the skill for source-finding queries, avoid sending unnecessary sensitive data, and review the MCP endpoint and tool list before relying on it.

What this means

If the token is exposed, someone else could use the FirstData API under the registered agent identity until the token expires or is revoked.

Why it was flagged

The service uses a long-lived bearer token for authentication. This is expected for the integration, but possession of the token grants access to the FirstData API quota/account context.

Skill content
Use the activated `access_token` as `FIRSTDATA_API_KEY` ... The token is a JWT and is valid for **365 days** by default
Recommendation

Store the API key as a secret, do not paste it into chats or logs, and rotate or revoke it if exposed.

What this means

Using the npx setup path may run code from the npm ecosystem and persist an MCP server configuration.

Why it was flagged

The recommended setup can execute an unpinned npm CLI via npx to modify MCP configuration. It is user-directed and purpose-aligned, but depends on trusting the mcporter package source at setup time.

Skill content
npx mcporter config add firstdata https://firstdata.deepminer.com.cn/mcp --header 'Authorization=Bearer ${FIRSTDATA_API_KEY}'
Recommendation

Prefer a trusted or pinned MCPorter version, or use the documented manual MCP configuration if you want to avoid npx-based setup.
