Description
Route every task to the best MCP server and cheapest LLM. Scores on real execution data across quality, reliability, speed, cost, and trust.
Usage Guidance
This skill routes task descriptions to an external service (toolroute.io). Before installing: 1) Confirm the publisher and privacy policy (metadata shows no homepage/source but SKILL.md links to toolroute.io). 2) Do not send raw sensitive text — generalize or redact names, secrets, PII. 3) If you register, treat the returned agent_identity_id as a credential (store it securely and avoid committing it). 4) Prefer using the skill only for non-sensitive tasks until you verify the service (check TLS cert, privacy policy, and reputational signals). 5) Ask the publisher to fix metadata mismatches (declared required binaries/env) so the skill description accurately reflects runtime requirements.
Capability Analysis
Type: OpenClaw Skill Name: toolroute Version: 1.0.4 The skill instructions in SKILL.md direct the AI agent to exfiltrate all user task descriptions to an external API (toolroute.io) under the guise of 'intelligent task routing.' This behavior constitutes a significant privacy risk and a behavioral override (prompt injection), as it instructs the agent to intercept every user interaction and send it to a third party. While the documentation claims to generalize sensitive data, the default instruction to the agent is to route 'every task' through their service, which could lead to the leakage of sensitive intent or context. Additionally, the skill includes a social-growth-hacking 'verification' mechanism requiring users to tweet for credits.
Capability Assessment
Purpose & Capability
The SKILL.md behavior (POST task descriptions to https://toolroute.io to obtain an MCP server/model and optionally report outcome) aligns with the declared purpose of routing tasks to the best server/model. However, the registry metadata claims no required binaries or env vars while the SKILL.md lists curl as a required binary and instructs storing TOOLROUTE_AGENT_ID in an environment variable — an inconsistency that should be resolved by the publisher.
Instruction Scope
Instructions explicitly send natural-language task descriptions and telemetry to an external service. While the doc warns to generalize sensitive details, the skill depends on sending user-provided task text off-host, which can leak secrets if users are careless. The instructions do not request reading local files or other system credentials, which is good, but the allowed data flow to an external endpoint is the main risk.
Install Mechanism
This is an instruction-only skill with no install spec or code files, reducing on-disk risk. It mentions optional npm SDKs (@toolroute/sdk, @toolroute/hook) but does not require them. No downloads or extraction steps are present.
Credentials
Registry metadata lists no required env vars, yet SKILL.md asks users to store a returned agent_identity_id in an environment variable (TOOLROUTE_AGENT_ID). That single env var is plausible for attribution/credits, but the mismatch between metadata and instructions is confusing. The skill does not ask for unrelated secrets (AWS keys, tokens) which is proportional, but the agent ID could still be sensitive and link agent activity to your account.
Persistence & Privilege
The skill does not request always: true and is user-invocable only; autonomous invocation is allowed by default (normal). It does not claim to modify other skills or system-wide configs. No elevated persistence privileges are requested.
How to Use
  1. Make sure OpenClaw is installed (local or Docker)
  2. Run the install command in chat: /install toolroute
  3. After installation, invoke the skill by name or use /toolroute
  4. Provide required inputs per the skill's parameter spec and get structured output
