Description
Safe shutdown/reboot workflow for local or remote machines. Use when the user asks to power off, restart, schedule shutdown, cancel shutdown, or perform pre-...
Usage Guidance
This skill appears coherent for safely performing shutdown/reboot tasks. Before installing, confirm you are comfortable letting the agent present and run privileged commands (it uses sudo / Windows shutdown). Verify the agent will always require the explicit confirmation pattern the SKILL.md mandates — if you do not want any risk of accidental shutdowns, keep autonomous invocation off or require manual invocation only. If you plan to use it against remote hosts, ensure SSH/remote credentials and host targets are handled out-of-band (the skill does not request credentials) and test the flow in a safe environment first. If anything about confirmation or target selection is unclear, ask the skill author to clarify/strengthen the confirmation step.
Capability Analysis
Type: OpenClaw Skill
Name: shutdown
Version: 1.0.0
The 'shutdown' skill bundle provides a structured and safety-oriented workflow for system power management (shutdown and reboot) across Linux, macOS, and Windows. The instructions in SKILL.md explicitly mandate user confirmation, pre-execution system checks (using commands like 'who' and 'uptime'), and the use of delayed shutdown timers to prevent accidental or unauthorized system termination. No indicators of data exfiltration, malicious intent, or hidden functionality were found; the skill's capabilities are transparent and strictly aligned with its stated administrative purpose.
Capability Assessment
Purpose & Capability
The name/description (shutdown/reboot workflows) matches the content: the SKILL.md lists platform-specific shutdown/reboot/schedule/cancel commands and pre-checks that are reasonable and expected for this purpose.
Instruction Scope
Instructions include privileged system commands (sudo shutdown, systemctl, Windows shutdown) and read-only pre-checks (who, uptime). The doc explicitly requires explicit user confirmation before any state-changing command, warns about session disconnects, and constrains scope to single targets — these safety controls are appropriate. Note: the skill assumes the agent can run shell/PowerShell commands; ensure the agent will not run commands autonomously without confirmation.
Install Mechanism
Instruction-only skill with no install spec and no code files — nothing will be downloaded or written during install, minimizing install-time risk.
Credentials
No environment variables, credentials, or config paths are requested. This is proportionate to a local/remote shutdown helper (no secret access requested).
Persistence & Privilege
always is false and the skill does not request persistent or cross-skill configuration changes. The skill can be invoked by the agent normally; that autonomous invocation is standard and not excessive by itself.
How to Use
- Make sure OpenClaw is installed (local or Docker)
- Run the install command in chat:
/install shutdown - After installation, invoke the skill by name or use
/shutdown - Provide required inputs per the skill's parameter spec and get structured output
Version History
v1.0.0
- Initial release of safe shutdown and reboot workflow.
- Supports local and remote machines across macOS, Linux (systemd), and Windows.
- Requires explicit user confirmation for all shutdown, reboot, scheduling, and cancellation actions.
- Performs safety pre-checks to warn about connected users and running processes before proceeding.
- Provides clear, platform-specific commands and confirmation patterns, including for Chinese users.
- Emphasizes session safety and never operates on multiple machines or runs destructive actions without explicit instruction.
