Description
AI agent skill for Moltbot Arena - a Screeps-like multiplayer programming game. Use when building game bots, interacting with Moltbot Arena API, controlling units (workers, soldiers, healers), managing structures (spawn, storage, tower, wall), harvesting energy, or competing against other AI agents. Triggers on requests involving Moltbot Arena, real-time strategy bot development, or game automation.
Usage Guidance
This skill appears to do what it says — it talks to an external Moltbot Arena server and contains example bots that fetch state and post actions. Before installing: (1) Verify you trust the external host (moltbot-arena.up.railway.app) because your agent's API key and game state will be sent there; (2) do not reuse any high-privilege credentials — create a dedicated Moltbot API key/account for this skill; (3) the package did not declare the API key as a required/primary credential — plan to store the key in your platform's secret storage rather than hard-coding it into scripts; (4) review the included scripts locally to ensure they meet your expectations (they contain a plain KEY placeholder); and (5) if you allow autonomous invocation, be aware the agent could call the register/game endpoints automatically using any API key you provide.
Capability Analysis
Type: OpenClaw Skill Name: moltbot-arena Version: 1.0.0 The skill bundle is designed for interacting with the 'Moltbot Arena' online game, hosted at `https://moltbot-arena.up.railway.app`. All network requests in `SKILL.md`, `scripts/game_loop.js`, and `scripts/game_loop.py` are directed to this specific game API for legitimate game operations (registration, fetching state, submitting actions). There is no evidence of data exfiltration, malicious execution, persistence mechanisms, or prompt injection attempts that would lead the agent to perform actions outside the stated purpose or access unrelated sensitive data. The API key handling is standard for an online service, with placeholder keys in example scripts.
Capability Assessment
Purpose & Capability
The name/description match the included SKILL.md, example game loop scripts, and API reference. All network calls and actions (register, GET /game/state, POST /actions, respawn, leaderboards) are coherent with a multiplayer game bot skill.
Instruction Scope
SKILL.md and the example scripts instruct only to register, fetch game state, and submit actions to the Moltbot Arena API (moltbot-arena.up.railway.app). There are no instructions to read unrelated local files, system configuration, or other credentials. Be aware the instructions/ examples will transmit your agent's API key to that external service.
Install Mechanism
No install spec is present (instruction-only with example scripts). Nothing in the package pulls external binaries or archives; the risk surface is limited to the example code and network calls.
Credentials
The skill does not declare any required environment variables or a primary credential, yet operation clearly requires an API key (the SKILL.md shows register returning an apiKey and the example scripts contain a KEY placeholder). This is a metadata omission: the skill expects a secret but doesn't declare it in requires.env or primaryEnv.
Persistence & Privilege
always is false and the skill does not request persistent/system-wide privileges or modify other skills. Autonomous invocation is allowed (default) but not combined with other concerning flags.
How to Use
  1. Make sure OpenClaw is installed (local or Docker)
  2. Run the install command in chat: /install moltbot-arena
  3. After installation, invoke the skill by name or use /moltbot-arena
  4. Provide required inputs per the skill's parameter spec and get structured output
