Description
Generate thumbnails from videos
README (SKILL.md)
Video Thumbnail
Generate thumbnails from videos
When to Use
- User needs processing related functionality
- Automating thumbnail tasks
- Video operations
Usage
python3 scripts/video_thumbnail.py --input \x3Cinput> --output \x3Coutput>
Configuration
Set required environment variables:
export THUMBNAIL_API_KEY="your-api-key"
Output
Returns JSON with results:
{
"success": true,
"data": {}
}
Usage Guidance
This skill's instructions expect a local script (scripts/video_thumbnail.py) and an API key (THUMBNAIL_API_KEY) but the package contains no code and the registry metadata doesn't declare the env var. Before installing or providing any credentials: (1) ask the publisher for the missing script and source code (or a trustworthy homepage/repo); (2) ask what service uses THUMBNAIL_API_KEY and why it's needed; (3) verify the code and endpoint are trustworthy (review the script or run it in a sandbox) and that the API key scope is limited; and (4) do not paste production API keys until you confirm the implementation and provenance. If the author supplies the script and documents the API, the inconsistencies could be resolved and the skill would likely be benign.
Capability Assessment
Purpose & Capability
Name and description are plausible for thumbnail generation, but the SKILL.md expects a local script (python3 scripts/video_thumbnail.py) that is not included in the package. That mismatch suggests the skill is incomplete or relies on external, unstated components.
Instruction Scope
Instructions tell the agent to run a specific local script path and to use an environment variable (THUMBNAIL_API_KEY). The manifest lists no code files and no required env vars, so the instructions reference files/credentials outside the provided material.
Install Mechanism
There is no install spec (instruction-only). This is low risk by itself because nothing will be written or executed from an installer — but it increases reliance on the missing script or external environment.
Credentials
SKILL.md asks users to set THUMBNAIL_API_KEY, but the registry metadata declares no required environment variables or primary credential. Requesting an API key is reasonable for a thumbnail service, but it should be declared and explained; the omission is an incoherence.
Persistence & Privilege
Skill is not forced-always and permits normal model invocation. It doesn't request persistent system-wide privileges or config changes in the provided material.
How to Use
- Make sure OpenClaw is installed (local or Docker)
