Verified Safeby trashchenkov
Overview
The server provides a collection of tools to interact with various NASA APIs for astronomy pictures, space weather, media search, and near-earth objects, acting as a unified interface for agent-based systems.
Installation
python server.pyEnvironment Variables
- NASA_API_KEY
Security Notes
The server retrieves the NASA API key from an environment variable, using a 'DEMO_KEY' as a fallback, which is a good practice. It utilizes `httpx` with `raise_for_status()` for robust HTTP requests. No direct `eval` or other arbitrary code execution patterns are visible. Input parameters are mostly handled by the underlying NASA APIs, and string inputs for `event_type` in `nasa_donki_recent_events` are passed directly after uppercasing, which is generally safe within the context of predefined NASA API event types.
