Usage Guidance
This skill appears to do what it says: run the provided Node scripts which read an API key file and call https://quack.us.com to post RFPs, bids, and hires. Before installing or running: 1) Verify the Quack service domain (quack.us.com) and that you trust it; 2) Store a minimal-scope API key and avoid putting highly sensitive data in task descriptions (anything you include will be sent to the remote service); 3) Keep the key in a secure location (consider file permissions or secret storage) and rotate/revoke if compromised; 4) Ensure your runtime environment uses a recent Node with secure TLS; and 5) If you need higher assurance, inspect network traffic or sandbox/script execution before giving the skill access to real credentials or confidential content.
Capability Analysis
Type: OpenClaw Skill
Name: quack-coordinator
Version: 1.0.0
The OpenClaw AgentSkills skill bundle 'quack-coordinator' is classified as benign. All scripts (`bid.mjs`, `hire.mjs`, `rfp.mjs`) correctly read an API key from `~/.openclaw/credentials/quack.json` and use it to authenticate requests to the `https://quack.us.com` API, which aligns with the stated purpose of coordinating tasks on the 'Quack Network'. Input parameters are properly sanitized (e.g., `encodeURIComponent` for URL paths, `parseFloat` for numbers, `JSON.stringify` for body content) before being sent. There is no evidence of data exfiltration to unauthorized endpoints, malicious execution, persistence mechanisms, or prompt injection attempts in `SKILL.md`.
Capability Assessment
Purpose & Capability
Name/description (RFP → Bid → Hire) match the included scripts and SKILL.md. The scripts call endpoints on a single domain (quack.us.com) and read a Quack API key from ~/.openclaw/credentials/quack.json as documented.
Instruction Scope
SKILL.md and scripts stay within the stated purpose (posting RFPs, bidding, hiring). They do instruct storing/reading an API key from a specific home-directory path (~/.openclaw/credentials/quack.json) and will send task text and budget/pricing to the remote API — this is expected but means any task content will leave the host.
Install Mechanism
No install spec; this is instruction-only plus small Node scripts. Nothing is downloaded or installed automatically by the skill bundle itself.
Credentials
No environment variables or unrelated credentials are requested. The single credential (apiKey in a JSON file under the user's home) is proportionate to the remote API use, but storing a plaintext key on disk and allowing scripts to read it is a sensitive operation — keys should be scoped and rotated.
Persistence & Privilege
The skill is not always-enabled and is user-invocable. It does not request system-wide configuration changes or elevated privileges.
How to Use
- Make sure OpenClaw is installed (local or Docker)
- Run the install command in chat:
/install quack-coordinator - After installation, invoke the skill by name or use
/quack-coordinator - Provide required inputs per the skill's parameter spec and get structured output
