Description
Recover when a web page is thin, blocked, JS-heavy, region-limited, or fetch-incompatible by switching to lawful fallback paths instead of stopping early.
README (SKILL.md)
Blocked Page Fallback
Use this skill when normal web fetch/search is not enough, but the goal may still be reachable through alternate lawful paths.
Do Not Do
- do not bypass login
- do not evade anti-bot or access controls
- do not brute-force endpoints
Fallback Ladder
1. Broaden discovery
- search multiple engines
- use site-specific search
- try alternate titles, aliases, slugs, and locale variants
2. Switch transport
- if plain fetch is thin, use a browser-rendered path
- if browser path is noisy, pivot back to targeted fetch on discovered links
3. Pivot source types
Try allowed alternatives:
- official docs or help centers
- official API or export surfaces
- feeds, sitemaps, changelogs, or release notes
- search-engine cached snippets where available
- public mirrors or archive copies that are openly reachable
- reputable secondary databases
4. Use structural clues
If the exact page is blocked, search by:
- page title fragments
- quoted snippets
- IDs, handles, usernames, product codes, or canonical names
- internal link labels and breadcrumb terms
5. Keep going until confidence is earned
Do not stop after:
- one blocked fetch
- one empty browser render
- one weak search pass
Stop when:
- authoritative or converging sources answer the question
- the remaining blocker is concrete and real
- additional paths are now duplicative
Output Pattern
Return:
- primary path that failed
- fallback paths attempted
- which fallback produced signal
- best answer now available
- what would require user-authorized login or a first-party API
Usage Guidance
This skill appears coherent and low-risk: it only describes lawful fallback search strategies and explicitly forbids bypassing protections. Before installing, confirm that your agent runtime provides a safe browser-rendering tool (headless browser) if you expect the 'browser-rendered path' to be used, and that any network access to third-party sites complies with your privacy and logging policies. If you need access to login-protected content, supply explicit user-authorized first-party credentials or APIs rather than letting the agent attempt workarounds.
Capability Analysis
Type: OpenClaw Skill
Name: blocked-page-fallback
Version: 1.0.0
The skill bundle contains instructions for an AI agent to handle blocked or low-quality web content using lawful fallback strategies like alternative search engines, official documentation, and public archives. It explicitly prohibits bypassing access controls, evading anti-bot measures, or brute-forcing endpoints, and contains no executable code or malicious instructions (SKILL.md).
Capability Assessment
Purpose & Capability
The name/description (recover when a page is blocked or JS-heavy) matches the instructions (broaden discovery, switch transport, pivot sources, use caches/archives). Nothing requested (no env vars, no installs) is disproportionate to this purpose.
Instruction Scope
SKILL.md stays focused on discovery strategies and explicitly forbids bypassing logins, anti-bot controls, and brute force. It asks the agent to search multiple engines, site-specific search, use archives, sitemaps, APIs, and browser-rendered fetches — all directly relevant. Note: it assumes the agent has a browser-rendering capability/tool available, but does not instruct any unauthorized data access.
Install Mechanism
Instruction-only skill with no install spec or external downloads; lowest-risk installation footprint.
Credentials
No environment variables, credentials, or config paths are requested. The absence of requested secrets is proportional and appropriate for the described functionality.
Persistence & Privilege
always:false and normal autonomous invocation are used (platform default). The skill does not request permanent presence, system modifications, or access to other skills' configs.
How to Use
- Make sure OpenClaw is installed (local or Docker)
- Run the install command in chat:
/install blocked-page-fallback - After installation, invoke the skill by name or use
/blocked-page-fallback - Provide required inputs per the skill's parameter spec and get structured output
Version History
v1.0.0
Initial release of blocked-page-fallback skill.
- Enables recovery from thin, blocked, or region-limited web pages by using alternate, lawful fallback methods.
- Introduces a structured fallback ladder: broaden discovery, switch transport, pivot source types, and leverage structural clues.
- Clearly outlines prohibited behaviors (e.g., no login bypass, no anti-bot evasion).
- Provides a detailed output pattern for consistent results in difficult web scenarios.
