Description
Generate and read QR codes. Use when the user wants to create a QR code from text/URL, or decode/read a QR code from an image file. Supports PNG/JPG output and can read QR codes from screenshots or image files.
Usage Guidance
This package appears coherent and implements QR generation/reading as described. Before installing or running: (1) run the scripts from the repository root (use python qr_generate.py / python qr_read.py) since SKILL.md references a non-existent scripts/ subfolder; (2) install Python dependencies inside a virtualenv; (3) on macOS/Linux install the zbar native library for pyzbar as noted; (4) be cautious when following decoded QR payloads — they may contain URLs or commands; verify links before opening them; (5) review the included Python files yourself if you want extra assurance (they are short, not obfuscated, and do not perform network calls or credential access).
Capability Analysis
Type: OpenClaw Skill
Name: qr-code-intelligence
Version: 1.0.0
The OpenClaw skill bundle for QR code generation and reading is benign. All scripts (`qr_generate.py`, `qr_read.py`) and the `SKILL.md` documentation are clearly aligned with the stated purpose of handling QR codes. The scripts use standard Python libraries (qrcode, Pillow, pyzbar) and perform expected file operations (reading input images, saving output images) without any evidence of data exfiltration, malicious execution, persistence mechanisms, prompt injection attempts against the agent, or obfuscation.
Capability Assessment
Purpose & Capability
The skill's name/description match the included Python scripts (qr_generate.py and qr_read.py). Both generation and decoding features are implemented and the requested Python packages are appropriate for the stated purpose. Minor documentation mismatch: SKILL.md refers to scripts/qr_generate.py and scripts/qr_read.py, but the files are at repository root (qr_generate.py / qr_read.py); this is an operational/documentation inconsistency but not a security issue.
Instruction Scope
Runtime instructions are limited to installing standard Python packages (qrcode, pillow, pyzbar) and running the included scripts. The instructions do not ask the agent to read unrelated files, environment variables, or post data to external endpoints. Note: SKILL.md examples and CLI usage are straightforward; the scripts will decode and print QR payloads (which may be URLs or text) — the skill will expose that content but does not itself follow links.
Install Mechanism
No install spec or remote downloads are present; this is an instruction-only skill with bundled Python scripts. Dependency installation is via pip (standard). Native zbar library is required for pyzbar on some platforms and the README notes platform-specific installation (apt/brew/Windows requirements), which is expected.
Credentials
The skill requests no environment variables, no credentials, and no config paths. That is proportionate to generating/reading QR codes.
Persistence & Privilege
The skill does not request always:true, does not modify other skills or system-wide settings, and does not persist credentials or enable self-install behavior. Autonomous invocation is allowed by default but is not combined with any other concerning privileges.
How to Use
- Make sure OpenClaw is installed (local or Docker)
- Run the install command in chat:
/install qr-code-intelligence - After installation, invoke the skill by name or use
/qr-code-intelligence - Provide required inputs per the skill's parameter spec and get structured output
