Description
Track action items and coordination signals for the community, including quick task creation, status checks, and handoff notes. Use this when you need to log a collaborative task or check what everyone is currently working on.
README (SKILL.md)
Collaboration Helper
Overview
scripts/collaboration_helper.py is a lightweight JSON-backed tracker for community action items:
listshows every open or in-progress task with owner, priority, and creation timestamp.addcreates a new entry using--owner,--priority, and optional--notefields to capture context.completemarks a task as finished and records who closed it.
The data lives in data/tasks.json, so the collaboration state survives across skill runs and reboots.
CLI usage
python3 skills/collaboration-helper/scripts/collaboration_helper.py listprints the current queue grouped by status (open/in progress/done).add "Review policy" --owner legal --priority high --note "Need quotes for Moltbook post"registers a new task with metadata.complete 1 --owner opsmarks taskid=1as done and stores the time/owner.--workspace /path/to/workspacelets you point at another repo'sdata/tasks.jsonwhen you want to sync or inspect a partner workspace.
Task data structure
Each entry in skills/collaboration-helper/data/tasks.json looks like:
{
"id": \x3Cnumber>,
"title": "Task title",
"owner": "owner-name",
"priority": "low|medium|high",
"status": "open|in-progress|done",
"created_at": "2026-02-03T12:00:00Z",
"note": "optional context"
}
The CLI automatically increments id, sets timestamps, and toggles status when you complete an item.
Example workflow
python3 skills/collaboration-helper/scripts/collaboration_helper.py add "Document governance" --owner legal --priority high
python3 skills/collaboration-helper/scripts/collaboration_helper.py list
python3 skills/collaboration-helper/scripts/collaboration_helper.py complete 3 --owner legal
This adds a governance action, lists the queue so the team knows what’s pending, and then closes task 3 once it’s done.

Usage Guidance
This skill appears to implement exactly what it claims: a simple JSON-backed task tracker. Before installing or granting it autonomous invocation: 1) Note the documentation mismatches (flag name and field names); confirm you (or the agent) will call the script with --data, not --workspace, and expect the 'created' field. 2) Treat the skill like any file-writing utility: avoid pointing --data at sensitive system paths because it will create/overwrite the target file. 3) Review the small Python script yourself (it's short and readable) or run it in a sandbox to verify behavior. 4) If provenance matters, check the GitHub link and author reputation (owner id is unknown). None of the code performs network I/O or reads environment secrets, so there is no immediate sign of exfiltration.

Description: OpenClaw Agent Skill
Suspicious High-Entropy/Eval files: 1
The skill provides a lightweight task tracker that stores data in a local JSON file. All file operations are confined to this specific JSON data file, and while the `--data` argument allows specifying an arbitrary path for this file, this is a plausible feature for managing tasks across different workspaces. There is no evidence of data exfiltration, malicious execution, persistence mechanisms, or prompt injection attempts in the `SKILL.md` or other documentation. The code and documentation are clearly aligned with the stated purpose and lack meaningful high-risk behaviors.
Capability Assessment
Purpose & Capability
Name/description (collaboration task tracker) align with the included Python script and data file. There are no unrelated env vars, binaries, or external services required.
Instruction Scope
SKILL.md describes the expected CLI behavior but contains small inaccuracies: it mentions a --workspace flag while the script implements --data; the documented task field name is "created_at" but the code and sample use "created"; SKILL.md references a file name 'collaboration-guidelines.md' while the repository has 'collaboration-guide.md'. These are documentation mismatches (not evidence of malicious behavior) but could cause confusion at runtime.
Install Mechanism
No install spec; the skill is instruction-only plus small Python scripts included in the package. No network downloads or third-party installer steps are present.
Credentials
The skill requests no environment variables, credentials, or config paths. The code does not read secrets from the environment or attempt network access.
Persistence & Privilege
By default it writes to its own data/tasks.json within the skill folder, which is reasonable. The CLI accepts a --data path (documented as --workspace in SKILL.md), allowing the tool to read/write a tasks.json at any location the invoking agent/user points to — a functional convenience but one to be aware of because it can overwrite files if misused.
How to Use
- Make sure OpenClaw is installed (local or Docker)
- Run the install command in chat:
/install collaboration-helper - After installation, invoke the skill by name or use
/collaboration-helper - Provide required inputs per the skill's parameter spec and get structured output
