Usage Guidance
This skill appears coherent with its stated purpose, but take these precautions before installing or using it:
- Do not paste private, personally identifiable, or confidential text into the tool — SKILL.md requires quoting verbatim and the skill saves reports to ~/reddit-scanner/.
- Inspect and, if desired, delete the ~/reddit-scanner/ directory after use; consider running the skill under an account or environment without sensitive data accessible.
- Because this is instruction-only (no code shipped), the agent will use your agent environment/tools (it lists Bash) to create files — review what commands the agent actually runs if possible, and avoid granting shell access in untrusted contexts.
- If you want to verify behavior, manually run a few scans with dummy data first and confirm nothing is sent externally and only the expected files are created.
- The package source is listed as a GitHub homepage; review that repository yourself for additional instructions or implementation details if you want higher assurance.
Capability Analysis
Type: OpenClaw Skill
Name: reddit-pain-point-scanner
Version: 1.0.0
The skill bundle is a market research tool designed to analyze Reddit content for product opportunities. It requests 'Bash' access to manage a local workspace directory (~/reddit-scanner/) for storing reports and scan history. The instructions in SKILL.md are strictly focused on the stated purpose of data clustering and sentiment analysis, with no evidence of malicious intent, data exfiltration, or prompt injection attacks.
Capability Assessment
Purpose & Capability
The description (scan subreddits/keywords for pain points) matches the instructions: the skill expects pasted Reddit content, keywords, or subreddit names and performs clustering/scoring locally. It requests no credentials, binaries, or external APIs, which is coherent with the 'paste content' workflow stated in SKILL.md.
Instruction Scope
Instructions stay within the stated purpose (collect input, cluster complaints, score opportunity). They explicitly require the agent to save reports and memory to ~/reddit-scanner/. They also instruct to always quote verbatim Reddit language in reports — which is useful for product research but increases the risk of storing personal or sensitive text if the user supplies such data.
Install Mechanism
No install spec and no code files are present (instruction-only). This minimizes risk because nothing is downloaded or written by an install step.
Credentials
The skill requests no environment variables, credentials, or external service access. That is proportionate to a tool that operates on user-provided text rather than scraping or calling Reddit APIs.
Persistence & Privilege
The skill writes persistent files under ~/reddit-scanner/ (memory.md, reports/, opportunities.md). 'always: false' and no cross-skill/system config writes are specified, but you should be aware the agent will create and update files in your home directory when you use the save commands.
How to Use
- Make sure OpenClaw is installed (local or Docker)
- Run the install command in chat:
/install reddit-pain-point-scanner - After installation, invoke the skill by name or use
/reddit-pain-point-scanner - Provide required inputs per the skill's parameter spec and get structured output
