Description
Send SMS text messages directly from the user's Android device using the Termux API. Use this skill when the user asks you to text, SMS, or send a message to...
Usage Guidance
This skill appears coherent for sending SMS from a device running Termux. Only install/use it if you (or the device owner) have Termux and termux-api installed and you trust the device context. Note: the skill will execute termux-sms-send on the device and requires Android SMS permission—messages may incur carrier charges and reveal phone numbers. Confirm recipients and the exact message before sending, verify Termux:API was installed from a trusted source (F‑Droid or Play Store), and avoid using the skill on devices you do not control.
Capability Analysis
Type: OpenClaw Skill
Name: termux-sms
Version: 1.0.0
The skill provides a legitimate interface for sending SMS messages from an Android device using the standard Termux API. It includes clear safety guidelines in SKILL.md, such as requiring user confirmation before sending messages, and uses the official 'termux-api' package without any evidence of malicious behavior or data exfiltration.
Capability Assessment
Purpose & Capability
The skill is explicitly for sending SMS and only requires the Termux binary termux-sms-send; that is proportional and expected for this functionality.
Instruction Scope
SKILL.md limits behavior to sending SMS, requires explicit recipient and message confirmation, and does not instruct reading unrelated files, environment variables, or transmitting data to external endpoints.
Install Mechanism
This is instruction-only (no code files). The SKILL.md metadata includes an apt-based install entry for the termux-api package (a reasonable source inside Termux). Minor inconsistency: the top-level registry reported no install spec while the SKILL.md contains an install hint; otherwise no external download URLs or archive extraction are used.
Credentials
No environment variables, credentials, or config paths are requested; the requested access (a local Termux binary + Android SMS permission) is proportional to sending SMS.
Persistence & Privilege
The skill is not marked always:true and does not request persistent or elevated platform-wide privileges. Autonomous invocation is allowed by default but not combined with other concerning privileges.
How to Use
- Make sure OpenClaw is installed (local or Docker)
- Run the install command in chat:
/install termux-sms - After installation, invoke the skill by name or use
/termux-sms - Provide required inputs per the skill's parameter spec and get structured output
