Description
Guide for creating OpenClaw plugins using hooks like llm_input and llm_output, with logging, request tracking, and config management.
Usage Guidance
This is a coherent developer guide for building OpenClaw plugins. Before enabling or using any plugin built from these instructions, review the plugin's actual code (especially anything that implements logging) because logs can contain prompts, history, and LLM outputs (potentially secrets). If you install a plugin based on this guide, restrict its log file permissions, consider redaction of sensitive fields, and validate that it only writes under its own ~/.openclaw path. Also review the referenced GitHub project (or any other source) before enabling in production.
Capability Analysis
Type: OpenClaw Skill
Name: openclaw-plugin-dev
Version: 1.0.0
The skill bundle is a documentation guide for OpenClaw plugin development, providing templates and instructions for using hooks, logging, and configuration management. No malicious code, data exfiltration, or harmful prompt injection instructions were found in SKILL.md or _meta.json; the content is purely educational and aligned with its stated purpose.
Capability Assessment
Purpose & Capability
Name/description match the content: the SKILL.md is a plugin development guide and only references plugin-related APIs, manifest layout, config, and logging. It does not request unrelated credentials, binaries, or services.
Instruction Scope
Instructions stay within plugin development scope (register hooks, correlate runId, write plugin logs, check gateway logs). Note: the guide explicitly shows logging LLM prompts/responses and grepping gateway logs under ~/.openclaw, which is appropriate for debugging but can capture sensitive user data — the guide does not include redaction guidance.
Install Mechanism
No install spec and no code files are provided (instruction-only). Nothing is downloaded or written by the skill itself, minimizing installation risk.
Credentials
The skill declares no required environment variables, credentials, or config paths beyond referencing conventional OpenClaw locations (~/.openclaw). That is proportional for a plugin developer guide.
Persistence & Privilege
always is false and the skill is user-invocable only; it does not request persistent or elevated privileges or modify other skills' configuration.
How to Use
- Make sure OpenClaw is installed (local or Docker)
- Run the install command in chat:
/install openclaw-plugin-dev - After installation, invoke the skill by name or use
/openclaw-plugin-dev - Provide required inputs per the skill's parameter spec and get structured output
