Description
Analyze the sentiment and emotional tone of text using NLTK and VADER. Use this to gauge user mood, detect urgency, or analyze content tone.
Usage Guidance
This skill appears coherent and implements what it claims: a local VADER sentiment analyzer. Before installing, ensure the runtime environment provides Python 3 and the nltk package (SKILL.md lists these but the registry metadata did not list required binaries). Note that on first run the script will download the NLTK vader_lexicon from NLTK's servers (network access) — this is expected and required for analysis. The script does not access credentials or send data to external endpoints, so privacy risk is low if you run it locally; if your environment redirects network calls or telemetry, be aware the download will occur.
Capability Analysis
Type: OpenClaw Skill
Name: sentinel-mood
Version: 1.0.0
The skill bundle is benign. The `analyze.py` script performs sentiment analysis using NLTK's VADER lexicon, downloading the lexicon if necessary via `nltk.download` (a legitimate dependency management step). Input is processed as text, with no shell injection risks. The `SKILL.md` documentation accurately describes the skill and contains no prompt injection attempts against the agent. All files align with the stated purpose and show no signs of malicious intent, data exfiltration, or unauthorized actions.
Capability Assessment
Purpose & Capability
Name/description (sentiment analysis with NLTK/VADER) align with the included analyze.py and SKILL.md. The script implements VADER scoring and outputs JSON as advertised.
Instruction Scope
SKILL.md instructs running the Python script with text input; analyze.py accepts text args, computes polarity scores, and prints JSON. The only additional action is an on-demand download of NLTK's vader_lexicon if missing (needed for functionality).
Install Mechanism
No install spec (instruction-only) which is low-risk. The runtime will call nltk.download to fetch vader_lexicon over the network if absent — expected for NLTK use. Minor oddity: package.json (Node-style) exists though the implementation is Python; this is not harmful but slightly inconsistent.
Credentials
The skill requests no environment variables or credentials. It does require Python and the nltk package (declared in SKILL.md), which is proportionate to a local sentiment analyzer.
Persistence & Privilege
Skill does not request persistent/privileged presence (always=false). It does not modify other skills or system configs and has no special privileges.
How to Use
- Make sure OpenClaw is installed (local or Docker)
- Run the install command in chat:
/install sentinel-mood - After installation, invoke the skill by name or use
/sentinel-mood - Provide required inputs per the skill's parameter spec and get structured output
