README (SKILL.md)

Appraisal AI — Report Drafting Assistant

Helps real estate appraisers produce narrative reports and adjustment grids faster. You supply your project documents and a completed appraisal as a master template — the tool drafts the new report with every substitution shown as a tracked change in Word, so you review and accept each one.

What It Does

  • Narrative drafts — produces a Word .docx with all field replacements shown as tracked changes (strikethrough old, underline new). Open in Word, review each change, accept or reject.
  • Adjustment grids — fills subject and comparable data into your Excel grid template. Preserves formulas and appraiser-entered adjustments.
  • Quality review — checks the draft against your project data for consistency, missing fields, and USPAP compliance.

Who It's For

Licensed appraisers who write narrative reports for condemnation/eminent domain, market value, lending, or estate assignments. The tool handles the repetitive data entry — you keep full control of professional judgments (adjustments, comp selection, value conclusions).

How It Works

  1. Organize your project documents into a standard folder structure (subject docs, comparables, exhibits, template)
  2. The tool reads your documents and extracts structured data
  3. You review extracted data and fill in any gaps
  4. The tool drafts the narrative and grid from your template
  5. You open the output in Word/Excel and accept or reject each change

Template Packs

The tool works with any completed appraisal as a master template. Included template types:

  • Land-only — urban land / vacant lot appraisals
  • Condemnation — eminent domain with partial/total acquisition
  • Improved — improved property appraisals

You can create custom template packs from your own completed reports.

Setup

See the project homepage for installation and setup instructions.

Usage Guidance
This skill appears coherent with its purpose. Before installing or using it: only provide the appraisal documents and templates necessary for the task (don't include unrelated sensitive files); verify any outputs in Word/Excel before sharing; check the project homepage for actual install steps and review what local scripts run (since SKILL.md is high-level); ensure python3 tooling you install comes from trusted sources; and avoid supplying credentials or secrets that the skill does not explicitly require.
Capability Analysis
Type: OpenClaw Skill Name: appraisal-ai Version: 1.1.1 The provided files (_meta.json and SKILL.md) describe a real estate appraisal report drafting tool. The SKILL.md outlines the skill's purpose, functionality (reading user documents, drafting Word/Excel reports), and requirements (python3). There are no instructions for data exfiltration, malicious execution, persistence, or prompt injection against the agent. The content is consistent with the stated purpose and lacks any indicators of intentional harmful behavior or significant vulnerabilities based solely on the provided metadata and markdown description.
Capability Assessment
Purpose & Capability
Name/description (drafting Word narratives and Excel grids from project files and templates) matches the SKILL.md steps. The only required runtime binary declared is python3, which is plausible for a document-processing tool. No unrelated services, credentials, or config paths are requested.
Instruction Scope
SKILL.md is high-level and instructs the tool/agent to read the user's project documents and templates and produce Word/Excel outputs — that is expected for this purpose. The instructions do not ask the agent to read unrelated system files or exfiltrate data, but they are vague about exact commands/locations, so the agent's implementation could vary. Expect the agent to need access to whatever project files you provide.
Install Mechanism
There is no install spec and no code files included (instruction-only), so nothing is written to disk by the skill itself. This is the lowest-risk arrangement.
Credentials
The skill declares no environment variables, no credentials, and no config paths. That is proportionate for a document-processing assistant that operates on user-supplied files.
Persistence & Privilege
always is false and autonomous invocation is default; nothing requests permanent or elevated presence or modification of other skills or system-wide settings.
How to Use
  1. Make sure OpenClaw is installed (local or Docker)
  2. Run the install command in chat: /install appraisal-ai
  3. After installation, invoke the skill by name or use /appraisal-ai
  4. Provide required inputs per the skill's parameter spec and get structured output
