Description
SXSW 2026 schedule lookup, event search, speaker info, and recommendations for the March 12-18 conference and festivals in Austin, TX. Use when the user asks...
Usage Guidance
What to check before installing:
- Inspect the raw SKILL.md for hidden/unusual unicode control characters (the scanner flagged this). Remove or reject the skill if you see strange invisible characters or injected instructions.
- Confirm the repo/source is trustworthy (homepage points to a GitHub repo; verify author and commit history if possible).
- The skill bundles large local JSON files containing public schedule data; that data is read-only and the script does not make network requests itself, but the SKILL.md asks the agent to run web searches as a fallback — if you do not want the agent making web queries, disable autonomous invocation or instruct the agent to avoid web search.
- If you will run the bundled script locally, run it in a sandboxed environment first (no elevated privileges) and inspect the data files for unexpected URLs or payloads.
- Because confidence is medium (single prompt-injection signal), take the above verification steps; if they look clean, the skill is coherent and appropriate for SXSW schedule lookups.
Capability Analysis
Type: OpenClaw Skill
Name: sxsw-skill
Version: 1.0.1
The OpenClaw skill 'sxsw-skill' is benign. The `SKILL.md` clearly defines its purpose as an SXSW schedule lookup tool and instructs the AI agent to use its built-in web search for supplemental information, which is a declared and legitimate agent capability. The `scripts/sxsw.ts` code strictly adheres to its stated security manifest: it reads only specified local JSON data files (`data/sxsw-2026-schedule.json`, `data/sxsw-2026-index.json`), performs no file writes, makes no external network requests, accesses no environment variables, and safely processes CLI arguments using `node:util.parseArgs`, preventing injection vulnerabilities. There is no evidence of data exfiltration, malicious execution, persistence, or obfuscation.
Capability Assessment
Purpose & Capability
Name/description match the delivered artifacts: a CLI script (node) plus two large JSON files containing an index and full schedule. All required binaries and files are appropriate for a local schedule/search skill.
Instruction Scope
SKILL.md stays on-topic: it describes using the local dataset first and only using the agent's built-in web search as a fallback for last-minute changes. It instructs inclusion of schedule.sxsw.com URLs and references another transit skill for transit info. However, a pre-scan found unicode-control-chars in SKILL.md (possible prompt-injection obfuscation) — review the raw SKILL.md for hidden characters before trusting automated agent behavior.
Install Mechanism
No install spec (instruction-only with included code/data). That is low-risk: nothing is downloaded at install time. The only runtime requirement is 'node', which is reasonable for a TypeScript/Node CLI.
Credentials
The skill requests no environment variables, no credentials, and no config paths. The script also documents that it reads only the two local JSON files and writes nothing — this is proportionate to the stated purpose.
Persistence & Privilege
always:false and no special privileges. The skill can be invoked by the agent (normal). It does not request persistent presence, nor does it modify other skills or system-wide settings.
How to Use
- Make sure OpenClaw is installed (local or Docker)
- Run the install command in chat:
/install sxsw-skill - After installation, invoke the skill by name or use
/sxsw-skill - Provide required inputs per the skill's parameter spec and get structured output
