/install stoic-quotes
Description
Provide Stoic philosophy quotes from Marcus Aurelius, Seneca, Epictetus, Cato, or others on request, always acknowledging prior quote sharing.
Usage Guidance
This skill appears safe to install: it only reads the included references/quotes-collection.md and formats quotes. Before installing, optionally skim references/quotes-collection.md to ensure it contains only expected quote text (no private data or unexpected instructions). If you prefer to prevent any autonomous runs, you can disable autonomous invocation for skills in your agent settings; otherwise this skill's default autonomous capability is low-risk given it has no external network calls, no credentials, and no executable code.
Capability Analysis
Type: OpenClaw Skill
Name: stoic-quotes
Version: 1.0.1
The OpenClaw AgentSkills bundle is benign. Its sole purpose is to provide Stoic philosophy quotes, which it achieves by instructing the AI agent to read a local markdown file (`references/quotes-collection.md`) within the skill bundle. There are no instructions for external network calls, arbitrary file system access, shell command execution, data exfiltration, or any other behavior that deviates from its stated purpose. The `SKILL.md` instructions are clear and do not contain any prompt injection attempts designed to subvert the agent's intended function.
Capability Assessment
Purpose & Capability
The name/description match the behavior: the skill provides Stoic quotes and points to a bundled references file. There are no unexpected credentials, binaries, or external services required.
Instruction Scope
SKILL.md confines runtime actions to reading references/quotes-collection.md, selecting and formatting 1–3 quotes, optionally offering brief context. It does not instruct reading other system files, calling external endpoints, or collecting unrelated data.
Install Mechanism
No install spec or code files are present; this is instruction-only so nothing will be written to disk or downloaded during install.
Credentials
The skill requests no environment variables, credentials, or config paths—proportionate for a local quote-delivery skill.
Persistence & Privilege
always is false and there is no indication the skill modifies other skills or system settings. disable-model-invocation is false (normal), but that alone is not concerning given the skill's limited scope.
