A data connector for Global Fishing Watch, a service that tracks fishing vessels and maritime activity. It searches vessels and events, and calculates activity inside protected or regulated sea areas.

It helps investigate vessel movements, fishing activity, port visits, and encounters, including activity inside MPAs, EEZs, and RFMOs.

It removes the need to gather and calculate these maritime records manually. It provides event statistics for defined sea areas.

Security

Grade A, and why

gfw-mcp scanned grade A with 0 findings against 26 rules in 11 categories — prompt injection, anti-refusal, data exfiltration, privilege escalation, supply chain, agent snooping, system-prompt leakage, SSRF and excessive agency — measured 1mo ago.

The scan reads gemini-extension.json. This mod also ships 1 executable file (scripts/screenshot_gfw.js), listed below but not scanned — reading those needs a real analyzer, not pattern matching.

A static scan of the body, not an audit. Every finding is printed with the line that produced it so you can judge whether it matters here. A mod is markdown that instructs an agent; that is exactly why what it instructs is worth reading.

Nothing flagged

None of the 26 patterns this scan looks for appear in this file: no shell pipes, no recursive deletes, no credential paths, no hidden text, no instruction-override or anti-refusal phrasing, no agent-config snooping. That is not a guarantee, it is the absence of the things that are checkable.

Changes

What this file has done since we first saw it

Hashed on every crawl. A supply-chain change to an agent config is a question of when, not whether, so the history is kept rather than the latest state alone.
