Description
Control mouse and keyboard on Mac using cliclick. Use when you need to automate clicking, typing, or controlling the mouse cursor.
Usage Guidance
This skill is coherent and does what it says: it documents how to run cliclick to control the mouse and keyboard. Before installing, ensure you understand these points: (1) macOS requires granting Accessibility permissions to tools that control input — only grant those to trusted binaries and verify cliclick's origin. (2) The agent will use exec to run commands; avoid allowing autonomous invocation unless you trust the agent and the environment, because automated UI control can perform sensitive actions (clicking, typing passwords, approving dialogs). (3) Because the skill has no install step, make sure cliclick is installed from an official source (Homebrew or the project's release page). If you want additional safety, restrict the skill to manual (user-invoked) use and review any command strings before execution. If you see any later changes that add downloads, env vars, or always: true, re-evaluate — those would raise concerns.
Capability Analysis
Type: OpenClaw Skill
Name: mouse-keyboard
Version: 1.0.0
The skill bundle provides a legitimate interface for using the 'cliclick' utility to automate mouse and keyboard actions on macOS. The instructions in SKILL.md are consistent with the stated purpose of UI automation and do not contain any malicious commands, obfuscation, or data exfiltration logic.
Capability Assessment
Purpose & Capability
Name and description match the SKILL.md: it documents how to run cliclick commands to control mouse and keyboard on macOS. No unrelated env vars, binaries, or config paths are requested.
Instruction Scope
Instructions are limited to running cliclick (and optionally osascript/sleep) via exec; they do not instruct reading files, exfiltrating data, or accessing unrelated system paths. Note: the skill tells the agent to execute system commands (exec), which is expected for this purpose but inherently powerful because it enables UI control.
Install Mechanism
No install spec or code is provided (instruction-only). That reduces disk-write risk. The skill assumes cliclick is available but does not attempt to download or install it.
Credentials
No environment variables, credentials, or config paths are requested — proportionate to the described single-purpose automation task.
Persistence & Privilege
always is false and the skill is user-invocable. However, the platform allows autonomous model invocation by default; since this skill performs UI control, allowing it to run autonomously increases potential for unwanted actions. The skill itself does not request persistent privileges or modify other skills.
How to Use
- Make sure OpenClaw is installed (local or Docker)
- Run the install command in chat:
/install mouse-keyboard - After installation, invoke the skill by name or use
/mouse-keyboard - Provide required inputs per the skill's parameter spec and get structured output
