Description
Check figure references in manuscripts
README (SKILL.md)
Figure Reference Checker
Check consistency of figure references in manuscripts.
Parameters
| Parameter | Type | Default | Required | Description |
|---|---|---|---|---|
--manuscript, -m |
string | - | Yes | Path to manuscript file |
Usage
python scripts/main.py --manuscript paper.docx
Features
- Detect orphaned figure references
- Check figure-label consistency
- Flag missing citations
Risk Assessment
| Risk Indicator | Assessment | Level |
|---|---|---|
| Code Execution | Python/R scripts executed locally | Medium |
| Network Access | No external API calls | Low |
| File System Access | Read input files, write output files | Medium |
| Instruction Tampering | Standard prompt guidelines | Low |
| Data Exposure | Output files saved to workspace | Low |
Security Checklist
- No hardcoded credentials or API keys
- No unauthorized file system access (../)
- Output does not expose sensitive information
- Prompt injection protections in place
- Input file paths validated (no ../ traversal)
- Output directory restricted to workspace
- Script execution in sandboxed environment
- Error messages sanitized (no stack traces exposed)
- Dependencies audited
Prerequisites
No additional Python packages required.

Usage Guidance
This skill is low-risk in that it contains a short, local Python script with no network or credential access. However, the documentation and code disagree: the README/usage implies you pass a file path (e.g., a .docx) and that results are written to workspace, but the script expects the manuscript argument to be the actual text and only prints results. Before using: (1) inspect or run the script on a harmless sample to confirm behavior; (2) don't pass sensitive documents until you confirm how input is read and where output goes; (3) if you want to process .docx files, modify the script to safely open/convert those files (validate paths, avoid ../ traversal, whitelist extensions) and/or add explicit input validation; (4) run in a sandbox (container/VM) if you will process unknown files; and (5) ask the publisher/author of this skill to fix the SKILL.md so it accurately reflects the script's behavior (or update the script to actually read files and implement the claimed safeguards).
Capability Analysis
Type: OpenClaw Skill
Name: figure-reference-checker
Version: 0.1.0
The skill bundle is a simple utility for identifying figure references in text using regular expressions. The code in scripts/main.py is minimal and contains no high-risk behaviors such as network access, shell execution, or sensitive data handling. While the script currently treats the input argument as literal text rather than reading from a file path (a functional bug), there are no indicators of malicious intent or security vulnerabilities.
Capability Assessment
Purpose & Capability
The declared purpose (check figure references) matches the small included Python implementation, which uses regex to find 'Fig. <number>' tokens. However, the SKILL.md repeatedly describes passing a manuscript file path (example: paper.docx) and claims the tool reads/writes files; the script instead treats the --manuscript argument as manuscript text and does not open or write any files. This inconsistency is disproportionate to the stated functionality and may mislead users.
Instruction Scope
SKILL.md instructs running 'python scripts/main.py --manuscript paper.docx' implying the script will read a .docx file. The script does not read files or parse .docx — it treats the argument as raw text. SKILL.md also claims output files are saved to workspace and lists filesystem access in its risk table, but the code only prints to stdout. This gap between instructions and actual behavior is a scope/instruction mismatch.
Install Mechanism
No install spec and no external dependencies. The script uses only the Python standard library (argparse, re). This is low-risk from an install perspective.
Credentials
No environment variables, credentials, or config paths are requested. The skill does not require secrets or external service access; the requested environment is proportionate.
Persistence & Privilege
The skill does not request persistent installation or elevated privileges (always:false). It does not modify other skills or system configuration.
How to Use
- Make sure OpenClaw is installed (local or Docker)
- Run the install command in chat:
/install figure-reference-checker - After installation, invoke the skill by name or use
/figure-reference-checker - Provide required inputs per the skill's parameter spec and get structured output
