- Countdown handles times in 24-hour format (HH:MM)
Usage Guidance
This skill appears safe and coherent for a simple clock/countdown: it does not request credentials or network access. Before installing or using it, consider: 1) SKILL.md shows usage as 'abby time' but the package does not provide an 'abby' CLI wrapper or install step — you will need to run the script directly or add an executable wrapper. 2) The countdown implementation contains a bug (it attempts to call .replace() on a timedelta), which will likely crash when the target time is earlier than now; the logic should add one day to the target datetime instead. 3) Timezone is hardcoded as 'Australia/Sydney' in outputs; if you need local/timezone-correct results across environments, update the code to use tz-aware datetimes or accept a timezone option. If you don’t want to run untrusted code, run the script in a sandbox or inspect/modify the source yourself before use.
Capability Analysis
Type: OpenClaw Skill
Name: abby-watch
Version: 1.0.0
The skill bundle is benign. The `SKILL.md` provides clear usage instructions without any prompt injection attempts against the agent. The `scripts/time_cli.py` script uses standard Python libraries (`argparse`, `datetime`) to display and calculate time, safely parsing user input for the `--countdown` argument without any file system, network, or command execution capabilities. All files align with the stated purpose of a simple time display skill.
Capability Assessment
Purpose & Capability
Name/description, the README, reference file, and the included Python script all describe a simple time display/countdown. Required env vars/binaries/configs are none, which is appropriate for this functionality.
Instruction Scope
SKILL.md instructs running an 'abby' CLI (e.g., 'abby time'), but the bundle only contains scripts/time_cli.py with no install spec or wrapper that would make an 'abby' command available. The runtime instructions do not ask for unrelated files, environment variables, or external network access.
Install Mechanism
There is no install spec (instruction-only), so nothing will be downloaded or installed by default. A code file is included but not automatically installed — no external URLs, package managers, or extraction steps are present.
Credentials
The skill requests no environment variables or credentials. The code hardcodes a timezone label ('Australia/Sydney') but does not attempt to access system timezone configuration or secrets.
Persistence & Privilege
always is false and the skill does not request persistent/system-wide changes. It does not modify other skills or agent config.

- Make sure OpenClaw is installed (local or Docker)
