What it does

Commodity Profile is an agent skill from lamm-mit/scienceclaw. Generate comprehensive one-page commodity profiles with production, trade, risk, research, policy, and web intelligence data

Its SKILL.md is about 710 tokens, which your agent loads only when the skill is triggered. The skill folder holds 2 other files, including scripts (for example `scripts/generate_profile.py`).

The licence is Apache-2.0.

Example prompts

“/commodity-profile”

Requirements

Python 3
A credential in UNCOMTRADE_API_KEY
A credential in SERPAPI_KEY

What it can do on your machine

Read from SKILL.md and the folder at commit ab9aba1. It shows what the files ask for, not the result of running them.

Tool permissions
Pre-approves nothing: there is no allowed-tools line, so your agent's usual permission prompts apply.
From allowed-tools in the SKILL.md frontmatter.
Runs code
Ships 1 file in scripts/ (Python), which the agent can run.
Shell commands in SKILL.md call:
- python3
From the folder's file list and the shell code blocks in SKILL.md.
Network
No URLs in SKILL.md.
From URLs in SKILL.md, links to its own repository left out.
Credentials
Names these keys or tokens, usually read from environment variables:
- UNCOMTRADE_API_KEY
- SERPAPI_KEY
- FIRECRAWL_API_KEY
From names ending in _API_KEY, _TOKEN, _SECRET, _KEY or _PASSWORD in SKILL.md.

Context cost

Commodity Profile loads about 705 tokens when it runs. Until then it costs about 36 tokens; SKILL.md has 195 words of instructions outside code blocks.

Always · name and description, kept in context so the agent knows when to use it: ~36
When it runs · the whole SKILL.md, loaded when a task matches: ~705

Estimates: characters ÷ 4, the usual rule of thumb; real counts depend on the model's tokenizer. Scripts and assets cost tokens only if the agent reads them.

Safety

Auto-check passed

The automated check found no risky patterns in SKILL.md.

Automated static check — not a guarantee. Review scripts before installing. It scans the text of SKILL.md for risky patterns (piping downloads into a shell, reading credential files, hidden Unicode, destructive commands); the scripts in this folder are not scanned.

Usage

Full profile:

bash

python3 {baseDir}/scripts/generate_profile.py --commodity "Lithium"

Select sections:

bash

python3 {baseDir}/scripts/generate_profile.py --commodity "Cobalt" --sections production,risk,intel

JSON output:

bash

python3 {baseDir}/scripts/generate_profile.py --commodity "Rare earths" --format json

Parameters

Parameter	Description	Default
`--commodity`	Commodity name (BGS naming)	Required
`--year`	Target year	latest available
`--sections`	Comma-separated sections: production, trade, risk, research, policy, intel	all
`--intel-max-results`	Max web-intel records to process	20
`--format`	Output format: summary, json	summary

Profile Sections

Section	Data Source	Description
`production`	bgs-production	Top producers, global output, rankings
`trade`	comtrade-trade	Import/export flows, major partners
`risk`	supply-chain-analysis	HHI, NIR, top-3 share, trend
`research`	literature-meta-search	Recent publications, citation leaders
`policy`	export-restrictions	Active restrictions, policy changes
`intel`	minerals-news-monitor + minerals-gov-monitor + minerals-web-ingest	Recent web signals, policy tags, high-confidence findings

Examples

bash

# Full lithium profile
python3 {baseDir}/scripts/generate_profile.py --commodity "Lithium"

# Cobalt production, risk, and web-intel
python3 {baseDir}/scripts/generate_profile.py --commodity "Cobalt" --sections production,risk,intel

# Graphite profile in JSON
python3 {baseDir}/scripts/generate_profile.py --commodity "Graphite" --format json --year 2022

Notes

Orchestrates multiple skill scripts (may take 30-90 seconds)
Some sections may fail if API keys are not set (warnings printed to stderr)
Trade section requires UNCOMTRADE_API_KEY
Research section requires SERPAPI_KEY for Scholar results
Intel section requires requests and beautifulsoup4 in the active Python environment
Intel ingest can optionally use Firecrawl when FIRECRAWL_API_KEY is set
For individual data queries, use source skills directly

Can I use Commodity Profile in Cursor, Gemini CLI or GitHub Copilot?

Cursor, Gemini CLI, GitHub Copilot and OpenCode also load SKILL.md folders. With the skills CLI, run `npx skills add lamm-mit/scienceclaw --skill commodity-profile -a cursor` (or -a gemini-cli, github-copilot or opencode for the others). To copy it by hand, put the folder in .cursor/skills/commodity-profile, .gemini/skills/commodity-profile, .github/skills/commodity-profile and .opencode/skills/commodity-profile in your project.

What does Commodity Profile need to run?

Going by SKILL.md and its folder, Commodity Profile needs Python for the scripts in its folder, the command-line tools its instructions call (python3) and credentials named UNCOMTRADE_API_KEY, SERPAPI_KEY and FIRECRAWL_API_KEY. Our summary lists: Python 3; A credential in UNCOMTRADE_API_KEY; A credential in SERPAPI_KEY.

Does Commodity Profile access the network?

SKILL.md contains no URLs. Any network use would come from the scripts or tools the agent runs. This is read from the text; nothing was executed.

Is Commodity Profile safe to install?

Our automated static check of SKILL.md found no risky patterns, such as piping downloads into a shell, reading credential files or hidden Unicode. It is not a guarantee. The check reads SKILL.md only: the scripts in the folder are not scanned, so read them before running anything.
