Description
Any-to-any AI sub-agent — research, images, video, audio, music, podcasts, avatars, voice cloning, documents, spreadsheets, dashboards, 3D models, diagrams,...
Usage Guidance
Install only if you are comfortable using CellCog's cloud service, setting a CellCog API key, spending service credits, uploading only files you intentionally wrap in SHOW_FILE tags, and allowing generated files to download to requested or default CellCog paths. Avoid tagging secrets, private keys, .env files, SSH keys, confidential documents, or files you do not want sent to CellCog.
Capability Analysis
Type: OpenClaw Skill
Name: cellcog
Version: 2.0.15
The 'cellcog' skill (SKILL.md) provides an interface for an external AI service with high-risk capabilities, including the ability to upload any local file via absolute paths and download files to the local filesystem. While the documentation contains explicit warnings against sharing sensitive information like credentials or SSH keys, the broad file and network access are inherently risky. The mention of a background daemon for task monitoring and the use of future-dated metadata (April 2026) in `_meta.json` and `SKILL.md` are additional indicators that warrant a cautious classification despite the lack of clear malicious intent.
Capability Assessment
Purpose & Capability
The broad any-to-any AI sub-agent capability is real, including research, media generation, documents, spreadsheets, code, and multimodal files, but it matches the stated purpose of delegating work to CellCog rather than showing unrelated behavior.
Instruction Scope
Instructions clearly disclose that files inside SHOW_FILE tags are uploaded and warn against credentials, private keys, .env files, SSH keys, and other sensitive material. The instruction to always print the full result message is a privacy caution because returned text can include paths, credits, follow-up instructions, or content derived from uploaded files.
Install Mechanism
The artifact is a single non-executable SKILL.md. It tells users to install the CellCog Python SDK with pip if needed and requires CELLCOG_API_KEY, but contains no bundled scripts, binaries, startup hooks, or privileged installer.
Credentials
Cloud API use, an API key, intentional file uploads, account credit usage, and generated-file downloads are proportionate for this service, but users should treat them as sensitive external data sharing.
Persistence & Privilege
OpenClaw notify mode mentions a background WebSocket daemon for completion notifications and resilient delivery, but this is disclosed and tied to submitted CellCog tasks rather than hidden persistence or privilege escalation.
How to Use
- Make sure OpenClaw is installed (local or Docker)
- Run the install command in chat:
/install cellcog - After installation, invoke the skill by name or use
/cellcog - Provide required inputs per the skill's parameter spec and get structured output
