Usage Guidance
This is an instruction-only README authoring/auditing skill and is internally consistent with its description. It does not request secrets or install software. When you use it, the agent will likely read repository files (README.md, package.json, images) and may suggest badges that reference external services (e.g., shields.io). Review any generated or modified README before committing or publishing. If you expect the agent to fetch private repo settings or package registry info, be aware those actions may require platform-level permissions or credentials that this skill does not declare — grant only the access you intend.
Capability Analysis
Type: OpenClaw Skill
Name: standard-readme
Version: 0.1.0
The skill bundle is designed to help users generate and audit README files according to the 'Standard Readme' specification. The instructions in SKILL.md are well-defined, focusing on document structure and content quality, and the 'Gather context' step is limited to reading local project configuration files (e.g., package.json, LICENSE) necessary for its stated purpose without any signs of data exfiltration or malicious execution.
Capability Assessment
Purpose & Capability
Name/description (generate and audit Standard Readme-compliant README.md files) matches the SKILL.md instructions. The skill is instruction-only and requests no binaries or credentials, which is appropriate for a formatting/linting/document generation helper. A minor note: some checks (e.g., matching package registry descriptions or GitHub repo settings) imply reading repository metadata or querying remote package registries, but this is coherent with the stated purpose.
Instruction Scope
SKILL.md stays focused on README content, sections, and rules. It implicitly requires the agent to inspect repository files (README.md, package.json, images) and possibly repo metadata; it does not instruct the agent to read unrelated system files, environment variables, or exfiltrate data. Be aware the agent may need to access repo contents and (optionally) query external services for badges or package metadata.
Install Mechanism
No install spec and no code files — lowest-risk instruction-only skill. Nothing will be written to disk or fetched during installation.
Credentials
The skill declares no required environment variables, credentials, or config paths. That matches its purpose. If the agent implementation later tries to call private APIs (e.g., GitHub or npm) it would need credentials, but the skill itself does not request them.
Persistence & Privilege
always is false and the skill does not request persistent privileges or modify other skill/system configs. Autonomous invocation is permitted (default) but that is normal and acceptable for this type of helper.
How to Use
- Make sure OpenClaw is installed (local or Docker)
- Run the install command in chat:
/install standard-readme - After installation, invoke the skill by name or use
/standard-readme - Provide required inputs per the skill's parameter spec and get structured output
