Description
Upload files to IPFS, store on Storacha, upload to decentralized storage, check Storacha status, view storage usage, create Storacha space, switch space, lis...
Usage Guidance
This skill appears to do what it says: it runs the Storacha CLI to upload and manage files on IPFS. Before installing/using it, consider: (1) uploads to IPFS/Storacha are public and effectively permanent — do not upload sensitive data unless you encrypt it first; (2) the agent is instructed to auto-create/select spaces and retry operations silently, which can create resources in your Storacha account (and potentially incur usage/egress); (3) the SKILL.md recommends running npm install -g @storacha/cli — prefer to install CLI tools yourself so you can review and control what is installed; (4) the agent will need access to your filesystem to save attachments and network access to contact Storacha — ensure you trust the environment where the agent runs. If any of these are unacceptable, don't enable the skill or limit its use until you can audit the CLI and confirm acceptable permissions and billing implications.
Capability Analysis
Type: OpenClaw Skill
Name: storacha-upload
Version: 1.3.1
The OpenClaw AgentSkills bundle for Storacha Upload is benign. It provides legitimate functionality for managing files on IPFS via the Storacha service, including uploads, listing, removal, space management, and authentication. All commands executed (e.g., `storacha`, `npm`, `node`, `curl`) are directly related to its stated purpose. The `SKILL.md` instructions are well-defined for agent execution, explicitly guiding the agent to perform actions directly and handle errors, and the `scripts/storacha-health-check.sh` is a standard diagnostic script. There is no evidence of intentional malicious behavior such as data exfiltration, unauthorized remote control, persistence mechanisms, or obfuscation. While powerful capabilities like creating admin delegations exist, the skill does not instruct the agent to misuse them, and potential prompt injection vulnerabilities are inherent to agent design rather than malicious intent within the skill itself.
Capability Assessment
Purpose & Capability
Name/description match required binaries (storacha, node) and the SKILL.md uses the storacha CLI for uploads, listing, spaces, and usage. Asking for an email-only login flow is consistent with the described Storacha auth flow.
Instruction Scope
Instructions correctly focus on running storacha CLI commands and handling file attachments, but they also instruct the agent to auto-create/select spaces and to 'silently' retry/fix missing space issues. This is functionally coherent but grants the agent authority to create resources in the user's Storacha account without explicit confirmation beyond the initial email step — users should be aware of that behavior.
Install Mechanism
No install spec in manifest; SKILL.md recommends installing the official npm package @storacha/cli via npm install -g which is a standard, traceable registry package. No downloads from unknown hosts or extract operations are present.
Credentials
The skill requests no environment variables or secrets. All referenced operations use the storacha CLI and local filesystem (temp files for attachments), which are proportionate to the skill's purpose.
Persistence & Privilege
always is false and the skill does not request persistent system-wide modifications. The included health-check script and CLI usage affect only the Storacha account and local environment (creating spaces/uploads) which is expected for this functionality.
