Eu Trade Analytics

Query 28M+ Eurostat COMEXT trade records — 27 EU countries, bilateral flows, HS2-CN8 codes, 1988-2025

Security Scan

The skill's instructions send queries to a third‑party API (sputnikx.xyz) rather than directly to Eurostat; provenance, pricing, and data-handling expectations are unclear.

Purpose & Capability

The declared purpose is querying Eurostat COMEXT data — that aligns with the skill's examples — but rather than calling Eurostat's official API the SKILL.md points to a third‑party service (sputnikx.xyz). Using a proxy API can be legitimate, but the registry metadata earlier omitted a homepage while the SKILL.md embeds sputnikx.xyz, creating provenance ambiguity.

Instruction Scope

The runtime instructions tell the agent to send user queries (reporter, partner, hs2, years, etc.) to https://sputnikx.xyz and to an MCP endpoint at https://mcp.sputnikx.xyz/mcp. These calls will transmit whatever query parameters and possibly user-provided inputs to an external service. The instructions do not reference reading local files or credentials, but they do not disclose how the third party stores, charges for, or logs query data.

Install Mechanism

This is an instruction-only skill with no install spec and no code files — nothing is written to disk by the skill itself, which minimizes install-time risk.

Credentials

The skill requests no environment variables or credentials, which is proportionate. However, the SKILL.md mentions paid endpoints and a free tier but does not declare any API key or billing requirement; that mismatch is worth clarifying.

Persistence & Privilege

always is false and there are no indications the skill requests persistent system privileges or modifies other skill configurations. The skill can be invoked autonomously (platform default), which expands its blast radius only if combined with other red flags.

What to consider before installing

This skill will forward your trade queries to a third‑party host (sputnikx.xyz / mcp.sputnikx.xyz) rather than directly hitting Eurostat. Before installing, consider: (1) do you trust the operator and their privacy/retention policy? (2) confirm pricing and whether an API key or account is actually required; the SKILL.md lists paid endpoints but requests no credentials. (3) avoid sending any sensitive or proprietary strings in queries. (4) if you need verifiable official Eurostat data or licensing guarantees, prefer a skill that calls Eurostat's official APIs or provides clear provenance and documentation. If unsure, ask the skill author for an official homepage, documentation, data licensing and retention policy, and whether queries are logged or aggregated.
