/install qwen
Description
Build and route Qwen chat, coding, reasoning, and vision workflows across hosted and self-hosted endpoints with safer debugging.
Usage Guidance
This skill appears coherent with its stated purpose. Before installing, confirm you are comfortable with the agent creating and storing short routing/memory files under ~/qwen/ (it says it will ask first). Provide DASHSCOPE_API_KEY only if you plan to use the hosted DashScope/Model Studio endpoints — it isn't necessary for local-only setups. Verify the listed external endpoints (dashscope*.aliyuncs.com) match the service you expect to use for hosted models, and keep your API key in environment variables as advised.
Capability Analysis
Type: OpenClaw Skill
Name: qwen
Version: 1.0.0
The Qwen skill bundle is a well-documented tool for routing and managing Qwen AI model workflows across hosted (Alibaba DashScope) and local (Ollama, vLLM) environments. It uses standard system utilities (curl, jq) for API interactions and follows security best practices by instructing the agent to use environment variables for secrets and seek user approval before persisting state to ~/qwen/. No evidence of malicious intent, data exfiltration, or unauthorized execution was found.
Capability Assessment
Purpose & Capability
The name/description (Qwen routing across hosted and self-hosted endpoints) matches the instructions and files: examples show hosted DashScope endpoints and local OpenAI-compatible servers. Required binaries (curl, jq) are used in health-check and minimal-request snippets. The declared config path (~/qwen/) is used for routing/memory files. Overall the requested resources are appropriate for the stated purpose.
Instruction Scope
SKILL.md and the included docs confine actions to model discovery, chat completions, local health checks, and optional local file writes under ~/qwen/. The skill explicitly lists the dashscope.* endpoints as the only external endpoints and instructs to ask the user before creating persistent notes. There are no instructions to read unrelated system files or to send data to undeclared third parties.
Install Mechanism
This is an instruction-only skill with no install spec or downloads; that is the lowest-risk install mechanism. No archives, remote installers, or third-party package pulls are present.
Credentials
Only one environment variable is requested: DASHSCOPE_API_KEY, which is appropriate for the documented hosted DashScope / Model Studio endpoints. Minor incoherence: the registry metadata lists DASHSCOPE_API_KEY as a required env var even though the skill supports self-hosted flows (Ollama, vLLM, etc.) that do not need that key. It would be more precise to mark the key as required only for hosted workflows or make it optional when the user intends local-only usage.
Persistence & Privilege
The skill does not request elevated privileges or permanent/always-on inclusion. It declares a config path (~/qwen/) and instructs to create files there only after asking the user. always:false and normal model invocation are used; nothing in the docs indicates modification of other skills or system-wide settings.
How to Use
- Make sure OpenClaw is installed (local or Docker)
- Run the install command in chat:
/install qwen - After installation, invoke the skill by name or use
/qwen - Provide required inputs per the skill's parameter spec and get structured output
