Description
Classifies tasks by safety and complexity to route safe, negligible queries to gpt-5.1-codex-mini and escalates critical or executable tasks to gpt-5.3-codex.
Usage Guidance
This skill is coherent and does what it says: it classifies inputs and forwards risky/executable/high-impact tasks to a stronger model. Before installing, confirm: (1) your platform actually provides the sessions_spawn() API and you understand what it will send (it forwards the full task prompt to gpt-5.3-codex); (2) you're comfortable with potential privacy and billing implications of more frequent escalations; (3) you want the agent to make automatic escalation decisions rather than prompting you first. Test with non-sensitive prompts to see how often it escalates and monitor costs and logs. If you need stricter privacy, require explicit user confirmation before escalation or redact sensitive material before forwarding.
Capability Analysis
Type: OpenClaw Skill
Name: save-usage
Version: 1.0.0
The skill bundle defines a model routing strategy for an AI agent, instructing it to escalate sensitive or high-impact tasks (e.g., code execution, handling secrets, security, architecture) to a more capable model (`gpt-5.3-codex`) via `sessions_spawn()`. Conversely, it restricts a less capable model (`gpt-5.1-codex-mini`) to only safe, negligible, and non-executable tasks. The instructions in SKILL.md are designed to enhance security and resource management by preventing the agent from performing risky actions on an inappropriate model. There is no evidence of malicious intent, data exfiltration, unauthorized execution, or harmful prompt injection.
Capability Assessment
Purpose & Capability
The name/description (route safe queries to a cheaper model, escalate risky/executable ones) matches the SKILL.md instructions. It requires no env vars, binaries, or installs — appropriate for a purely behavioral routing skill. The only implicit dependency is the platform-provided sessions_spawn() API, which is a reasonable requirement for a routing skill.
Instruction Scope
Instructions stay within routing scope: classify the task, forward the full task to sessions_spawn() when triggers match, and restrict what the cheaper model may produce. The skill will forward the user's full task to gpt-5.3-codex when escalating, which is expected but is a privacy/telemetry consideration (user content will be sent to the higher-capability model). The instructions do not ask the agent to read files, env vars, or system state outside of the task text.
Install Mechanism
No install spec or code files are present (instruction-only), so nothing is downloaded or written to disk — lowest-risk install footprint.
Credentials
The skill requests no environment variables, credentials, or config paths. That is proportional to its described behavior as a pure routing policy.
Persistence & Privilege
The skill is not always:true and does not request system-wide privileges. It does instruct the agent to escalate automatically on many common triggers; that autonomous invocation behavior is expected for a routing skill but has operational implications (frequent escalations can increase cost and send more user content to gpt-5.3-codex).
How to Use
- Make sure OpenClaw is installed (local or Docker)
- Run the install command in chat:
/install save-usage - After installation, invoke the skill by name or use
/save-usage - Provide required inputs per the skill's parameter spec and get structured output
