Description
Create, search, and manage Bear notes via grizzly CLI.
Usage Guidance
Install only if you trust the grizzly CLI and are comfortable allowing an agent to read or change your Bear notes. Treat the Bear API token like a password, restrict permissions on ~/.config/grizzly and the token file, avoid putting real tokens into shell history, and use --dry-run or --print-url when you want to preview actions before they affect notes.
Capability Analysis
Type: OpenClaw Skill
Name: bear-notes
Version: 1.0.0
The skill bundle is classified as benign. It provides instructions to install and use the `grizzly` CLI tool to manage Bear notes on macOS. The `SKILL.md` outlines the installation of `grizzly` via `go install` from a specific GitHub repository, and details how to interact with the Bear app, including handling user-provided API tokens stored in `~/.config/grizzly/token` and using local network callbacks (e.g., `127.0.0.1:42123`) for inter-process communication with Bear. All file and network access capabilities are explicitly tied to the stated purpose of managing Bear notes and do not show evidence of data exfiltration, malicious execution, persistence, or prompt injection attempts against the agent.
Capability Assessment
Purpose & Capability
The stated purpose is to create, read, search, tag, and append Bear notes through the grizzly CLI, and the documented commands directly match that purpose.
Instruction Scope
Commands are user-directed examples, and read/write operations are visible, but the token setup and write examples could more clearly warn users about credential sensitivity and note modification.
Install Mechanism
The skill discloses installation of the external Go CLI github.com/tylerwince/grizzly/cmd/grizzly@latest; using @latest is mutable, but this is purpose-aligned and not hidden.
Credentials
macOS, the Bear app, local config files, and localhost callback settings are proportionate to managing Bear notes through Bear's API and callback flow.
Persistence & Privilege
The skill can modify persistent Bear notes and stores a Bear API token at ~/.config/grizzly/token; both are disclosed and expected, but the token should be protected with restrictive permissions.
How to Use
- Make sure OpenClaw is installed (local or Docker)
- Run the install command in chat:
/install bear-notes - After installation, invoke the skill by name or use
/bear-notes - Provide required inputs per the skill's parameter spec and get structured output
