Description
Get current weather and forecasts (no API key required).
Usage Guidance
This skill appears coherent and low-risk: it simply runs curl against public weather APIs and requires no secrets. Before installing, confirm you are comfortable allowing the agent to make outbound HTTP requests (the agent may call these endpoints autonomously unless you disable that behavior), and ensure curl is available in the runtime environment. Be aware that queries transmit the location strings you provide to third-party services (wttr.in, open-meteo), so avoid sending sensitive or private location data. Finally, note the small metadata mismatch about the required binary (curl) — that's expected, not malicious; verify curl is present if you want the examples to work.
Capability Analysis
Type: OpenClaw Skill
Name: weather-test
Version: 1.0.0
The skill bundle provides legitimate instructions and examples for retrieving weather data from public, no-API-key services (wttr.in and open-meteo.com) using curl. The content in SKILL.md is well-documented, aligns with the stated purpose, and contains no evidence of malicious execution, data exfiltration, or prompt injection.
Capability Assessment
Purpose & Capability
The skill's name/description (weather, no API key) matches the instructions (curl to wttr.in and Open-Meteo). Minor metadata mismatch: SKILL.md metadata lists curl as a required binary, but the registry 'Requirements' section lists no required binaries. Requiring curl is reasonable for this skill.
Instruction Scope
Runtime instructions are limited to issuing HTTP requests (curl) to public weather services and optionally saving a PNG to /tmp. The instructions do not ask the agent to read unrelated files, access credentials, or transmit data to unexpected endpoints.
Install Mechanism
There is no install spec and no code files — the skill is instruction-only, which minimizes on-disk risk. It relies on existing system tools (curl) rather than downloading artifacts.
Credentials
The skill requests no environment variables, secrets, or config paths. This is proportionate to the stated functionality (public, keyless APIs).
Persistence & Privilege
The skill is not always-enabled and uses the platform default for autonomous invocation. It does not request elevated persistence or modify other skills' configuration.
How to Use
- Make sure OpenClaw is installed (local or Docker)
- Run the install command in chat:
/install weather-test - After installation, invoke the skill by name or use
/weather-test - Provide required inputs per the skill's parameter spec and get structured output
