Description
Write and publish SEO-optimized monetizable articles for Medium Partner Program, targeting specific audiences and submitting to popular publications.
Usage Guidance
This skill is an instruction-only writing assistant for Medium and appears coherent: it will help draft, optimize, and prepare pitches but does not itself publish or fetch analytics. Before using it, understand that (1) to actually publish or link Stripe/Medium accounts you'll need to provide those credentials to whatever UI or process you use — do not paste login tokens or passwords into chat unless you trust the destination, (2) the skill may ask you for article URLs or engagement data — be prepared to provide only the data you want shared, and (3) review generated content for plagiarism, accuracy, and compliance with Medium's policies before publishing. If you need the skill to perform automated publishing, require a version that explicitly declares the API credentials it needs and a trustworthy install mechanism.
Capability Analysis
Type: OpenClaw Skill Name: medium-writer Version: 1.0.2 The OpenClaw AgentSkills bundle 'medium-writer' is classified as benign. The `_meta.json` file contains standard metadata. The `SKILL.md` file provides comprehensive instructions and usage examples for an AI agent to assist with writing and publishing articles on Medium. All instructions and content are aligned with the stated purpose of a 'Medium Writer' skill, focusing on content generation, SEO, and publication. There are no indicators of prompt injection attempts against the agent, data exfiltration, malicious execution, persistence mechanisms, or any other harmful behaviors. The ability to 'Submit [article] to [Publication name]' is a core function of the skill and does not inherently demonstrate malicious intent within the skill itself.
Capability Assessment
Purpose & Capability
Name/description (write and publish Medium articles) match the SKILL.md prompts: article creation, SEO, pitching, and repurposing. Nothing in the manifest asks for unrelated binaries, cloud creds, or system access.
Instruction Scope
SKILL.md is purely prompt/instruction text (writing, headline generation, pitch drafts, submission guidance, analytics suggestions). Some entries refer to analyzing an article URL or engagement data — the skill does not itself request analytics credentials or describe how to fetch engagement metrics, so the agent would need user-supplied data to perform those steps. The instructions do not ask the agent to read system files or access unrelated secrets.
Install Mechanism
No install spec and no code files — lowest-risk model (nothing is written or executed by the skill itself).
Credentials
The skill requires no environment variables, credentials, or config paths. That is proportionate: while actual publishing to Medium would require Medium/Stripe credentials, the SKILL.md does not attempt to collect them automatically.
Persistence & Privilege
always is false and the skill is user-invocable. It does not request permanent presence or system-wide configuration changes.
How to Use
  1. Make sure OpenClaw is installed (local or Docker)
  2. Run the install command in chat: /install medium-writer
  3. After installation, invoke the skill by name or use /medium-writer
  4. Provide required inputs per the skill's parameter spec and get structured output
