Ntriq World Bank Development Goals

Free API for UN Sustainable Development Goals (SDG) tracking. No subscription. Track progress by country for poverty, health, education, development metrics....

Security Scan

The skill's stated purpose (a free World Bank SDG API) mostly matches an instruction-only wrapper around a third‑party endpoint, but contradictory claims about being 'free' versus a pay-per-call endpoint and the unknown third-party host create incoherence the user should understand before installing.

Purpose & Capability

The skill claims 'No subscription' and 'direct World Bank database access' yet documents a third-party endpoint (https://x402.ntriq.co.kr/world-bank-goals) that charges $0.01 USDC per call. That mismatch between 'free/direct' and 'pay-per-call via a separate host' is inconsistent and could mislead users about cost and provenance.

Instruction Scope

SKILL.md is an instruction-only manifest that only advertises the endpoint, parameters, and example output. It does not ask the agent to read local files or other env vars (good), but is vague about how payment/authorization is handled and contains no guidance about credentials or wallet interactions required to pay on-chain.

Install Mechanism

No install spec or code files are present (instruction-only), so nothing will be written to disk or installed. This is the lowest-risk install mechanism.

Credentials

The skill declares no required env vars or credentials (appropriate). However, the documented micropayment model (USDC on Base, EIP-3009) implies that some wallet or payment flow exists outside the skill; the skill does not request wallet keys (which is good), but users should confirm how billing is performed before providing any signing keys.

Persistence & Privilege

Skill is not always-enabled and does not request special system persistence or modify other skill/system configs. It can be invoked autonomously (platform default), which combined with external network calls means it could trigger paid requests if the agent is allowed to act without confirmation.

What to consider before installing

This skill is an instruction-only wrapper around a third-party endpoint rather than the official World Bank API; it claims to be 'free' but its own docs show a $0.01 USDC per-call charge. Before installing: (1) verify the service provider (x402.ntriq.co.kr) — check TLS certificate, reputation, and terms of service; (2) confirm the exact billing flow and that you will not need to supply private keys or wallet secrets to the agent; (3) consider using the official World Bank API (free) if you want guaranteed free access; (4) test with non-sensitive/simple queries and minimal funds; and (5) do not store or share private keys or secrets with the skill. If you need higher assurance, ask the publisher for an explanation of the 'free' claim and a privacy/billing policy.
