faostat-trade

faostat-trade is a skill for Claude Code from berba-q/faostat-skills. It costs 133 tokens per session (3,112 once invoked), scanned A, original, MIT.

An analysis of a country's dependence on imported food commodities, using FAOSTAT data. It can compare domestic production with imports and exports, examine self-sufficiency and identify trading partners or concentrated supply risks.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it to assess import reliance, self-sufficiency, trade-partner concentration and food supply-chain vulnerability for a specific commodity.
Why use it?
It helps reveal whether a country relies on outside suppliers and where disruptions could create problems.

Token cost

What it costs to keep this loaded

Counted locally with the o200k_base tokenizer, which is exact for GPT models; Claude uses its own tokenizer and its counts differ. Treat this as one consistent yardstick across the catalogue rather than a bill. Prices are per million input tokens.

Security

Grade A, and why

faostat-trade 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 11d ago.

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.

How it starts

The opening of the file, as written. The whole thing — 224 lines — stays where its author put it; the contents beside it link to each section on GitHub.

Trade Dependency Analyzer

Assess a country's import dependence for critical food commodities, calculate self-sufficiency ratios, identify supply chain concentration risks, and track dependency trends over time.

Prerequisites

Before starting, verify that the FAOSTAT MCP tools are available: faostat_search_codes, faostat_get_data. If they are not available, inform the user they need the FAOSTAT MCP server configured and stop.

Domain Reference (CRITICAL -- use exactly these codes)

Domain Code Content When to use
Crops & Livestock Products QCL Domestic production (area, yield, production volume) Always for production
Crops & Livestock Trade (aggregate) TCL Country-level totals for import/export quantity and value Use for total imports / total exports of a country
Detailed Trade Matrix TM Bilateral trade by partner country Use ONLY for "who are the top partners" breakdown
Food Balance Sheets FBS Supply utilization including feed, seed, stock change Use for food-specific SSR (element 645 Food, 5131 Feed, etc.)

CRITICAL — TM vs TCL. TM returns one row per (reporter × partner × element × year). Summing TM rows to get national imports/exports is fragile (mirror-data gaps, re-exports). Pull aggregate import/export volumes from TCL. Only drop into TM when you need the partner breakdown.

Element Code Reference (CRITICAL)

Element codes below are verified hints. Resolve at runtime via faostat_search_codes before use.

  • Production quantity (QCL): filter code 2510, display code 5510
  • Import quantity (TCL): filter code 2610
  • Export quantity (TCL): filter code 2910
  • Import value (TCL, USD 1000): filter code 2612
  • Export value (TCL, USD 1000): filter code 2912
  • For faostat_get_data queries, use FILTER codes in the element parameter (e.g., element='2510')
  • For faostat_get_rankings queries, use DISPLAY codes in the element_code parameter (e.g., element_code='5510')

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.
