/install pathe-movie
Description
Lookup Pathé Netherlands movies, posters, descriptions, cinemas, and showtimes via the Pathé JSON APIs. Trigger when the user mentions a Pathé movie/show, wants a poster, asks about a description/rating, or requests showtimes for a specific cinema.
Usage Guidance
This skill appears coherent and does what it says: query Pathé's public JSON API and return show info and posters. Before installing, confirm your agent runtime permits outbound HTTPS to https://www.pathe.nl, allows writing temporary files (e.g., /tmp) and that your messaging gateway accepts local file paths as media. Note the skill downloads public poster images — if you have privacy or storage policies, ensure temporary files are cleaned up. Finally, review the included config (approved/primary cinemas) to make sure it matches your expected defaults. If you need higher assurance, run the helper code in a sandboxed environment to observe network traffic and file writes.
Capability Analysis
Type: OpenClaw Skill
Name: pathe-movie
Version: 1.0.0
The skill is designed to interact with the Pathé Netherlands API to retrieve movie information, showtimes, and cinema details. The `SKILL.md` instructions guide the AI agent to use the `pathe_movie.py` script and to save temporary poster images to `/tmp`, which is a standard practice for temporary files. The `pathe_movie.py` script exclusively makes HTTP requests to `https://www.pathe.nl/api` using standard Python libraries, without any evidence of data exfiltration, arbitrary command execution, or access to sensitive local files. All analyzed files align with the stated purpose and lack any high-risk behaviors or prompt injection attempts.
Capability Assessment
Purpose & Capability
Name/description (Pathé movies, posters, showtimes) align with the provided Python helper, API reference, and config. No unexpected credentials, binaries, or unrelated services are requested.
Instruction Scope
SKILL.md instructs the agent to call Pathé endpoints, use included helpers, and download poster images to a temporary path (e.g., /tmp) to attach them to WhatsApp messages. This is consistent with delivering media via a gateway, but it requires the agent environment to permit outbound HTTP and writing temporary files and assumes the platform's messaging tool accepts local file paths.
Install Mechanism
No install spec; skill is instruction-only with a small helper Python file. Nothing is downloaded from external, untrusted URLs and no package installs are requested.
Credentials
No environment variables or secret credentials are required. The skill works using direct public API requests to pathe.nl and a local config file included in the package.
Persistence & Privilege
always:false and no modifications to other skills or system-wide configs. Skill writes/reads only its included config and (per instructions) temporary poster files; this is expected for media delivery.
How to Use
- Make sure OpenClaw is installed (local or Docker)
- Run the install command in chat:
/install pathe-movie - After installation, invoke the skill by name or use
/pathe-movie - Provide required inputs per the skill's parameter spec and get structured output
