VibeTrader

Create and manage AI-powered trading bots via natural language. Paper & live trading, portfolio monitoring, backtesting, stock quotes, and options chains.

Security Scan

The skill's stated purpose, required environment variable, and runtime instructions are internally consistent: it only needs your VIBETRADER_API_KEY and interacts with the vendor's remote API/MCP server as described.

Purpose & Capability

Name/description (AI trading bots) match the declared requirement (VIBETRADER_API_KEY) and the SKILL.md endpoints for bot/portfolio/trading operations. No unrelated credentials, binaries, or system access are requested.

Instruction Scope

SKILL.md instructs the agent to call a remote REST API and MCP server (both hosted under a Google Cloud Run URL) and to use the VIBETRADER_API_KEY via Authorization header. It also tells users where to set the env var in the OpenClaw config (~/.openclaw/openclaw.json). The instructions do not ask the agent to read other local files, secrets, or system state.

Install Mechanism

No install specification or code is included (instruction-only). Nothing will be downloaded or written to disk by an installer in this package.

Credentials

Only a single service-specific API key (VIBETRADER_API_KEY) is required, which is proportionate for a cloud-managed trading service. No other secret or unrelated env vars are requested.

Persistence & Privilege

The skill is not marked always:true and uses the platform's default autonomous-invocation setting. It does not request elevated or persistent system privileges or attempt to modify other skills.

Assessment

This skill appears coherent, but treat any third-party trading API key as sensitive: (1) verify the vendor (vibetrader.markets) and TLS certificate before using your real account; (2) prefer paper mode first and test actions; (3) review how the vendor links broker accounts (Alpaca) and what permissions the API key grants; (4) consider creating a limited-scope key or rotating it after use; and (5) if you have strict security policies, confirm the cloud-run endpoint and privacy/terms on vibetrader.markets/docs before enabling live trading.
