README (SKILL.md)
Spawner
Before Spawning
- Role: Pick ONE — coder, writer, browser-automator, researcher, reviewer.
- Exit criteria: What artifact proves done? A file path, URL, test result.
- Context: Only inject files the agent needs. Task description under 2K tokens.
Model Routing
All sub-agents use free models (groq-llama → cerebras-llama → nim-llama → or-scout). Never spawn on premium models unless explicitly requested.
Task Template
You are a [ROLE]. Your job: [ONE SENTENCE].
Files you need: [LIST PATHS]
Exit criteria: [ARTIFACT]
If stuck after 2 attempts, STOP and report what failed.
After Completion
- Verify output file exists. If missing, retry inline or on fallback.
- Read only output files — never load sub-agent transcripts into context.
Rules
- 1 sub-agent at a time.
- Don't poll in a loop — they auto-announce.
- Don't retry on the same model that just 429'd.
Usage Guidance
This skill is coherent with its stated purpose and does not request credentials or install code, so it's low-risk in the narrow sense of composition. Before installing: (1) confirm how your platform implements 'spawning' — ensure spawned sub-agents are sandboxed and have limited file access; (2) restrict which models and files the agent can use to avoid unintended edits or long-running compute; (3) require explicit user consent before any file writes or network interactions performed by sub-agents; and (4) test in an isolated project/repo to verify the platform enforces the SKILL.md rules (for example, that transcripts are not automatically injected back into the parent agent). If you cannot verify those platform behaviors, exercise caution despite the skill itself appearing coherent.
Capability Analysis
Type: OpenClaw Skill
Name: dsb-spawner
Version: 1.0.0
The skill bundle provides a framework for spawning and managing sub-agents for long-running tasks such as coding or research. The instructions in SKILL.md focus on model routing (using providers like Groq and Cerebras), task templating, and exit criteria, with no evidence of malicious execution, data exfiltration, or harmful prompt injection.
Capability Assessment
Purpose & Capability
Name/description (spawn sub-agents for long-running or file-editing tasks) matches the SKILL.md: all guidance is about role selection, exit criteria, files to provide, model routing, and runtime rules. There are no unrelated environment variables, binaries, or config paths requested.
Instruction Scope
Instructions stay within the stated purpose: they define templates, which files to inject, exit criteria, and rules for polling/retries. The skill does not instruct the agent to read arbitrary system files, exfiltrate data, or contact external endpoints. It explicitly restricts what to load from sub-agents (only output files).
Install Mechanism
No install spec and no code files — instruction-only. This minimizes disk/write risk; nothing is downloaded or installed by the skill.
Credentials
The skill requests no environment variables, credentials, or config paths. That is proportionate to its claimed function of orchestrating sub-agents.
Persistence & Privilege
The skill is not set always:true and does not request persistent system privileges. Autonomous invocation is allowed by default on the platform but the skill itself does not demand elevated persistence or config changes.
How to Use
- Make sure OpenClaw is installed (local or Docker)
- Run the install command in chat:
/install dsb-spawner - After installation, invoke the skill by name or use
/dsb-spawner - Provide required inputs per the skill's parameter spec and get structured output
Version History
v1.0.0
