Description
Skill for using the PlyDB CLI to perform SQL analysis of connected data sources. Use for SQL queries across heterogeneous databases and files such as Postgre...
Usage Guidance
This skill is a documentation-style wrapper for the plydb CLI and is coherent with its stated purpose. Before using it: (1) ensure the plydb binary you run comes from a trusted source, (2) avoid providing config files that embed secrets inline—use limited-scope credentials, temporary tokens, or service accounts with minimal permissions, (3) be cautious about giving the agent configs that reference sensitive local paths (e.g., /etc/secrets/...), and (4) for Google Sheets OAuth, perform interactive auth in a safe environment as instructed. The skill itself won’t install code, but it will cause the agent to run system commands that have access to any files or env vars referenced in your config, so only run in trusted agent environments.
Capability Analysis
Type: OpenClaw Skill
Name: plydb
Version: 1.0.0
The plydb skill is a legitimate interface for a CLI tool designed to perform SQL analysis across various data sources like Postgres, S3, and Google Sheets. The documentation (SKILL.md and config_schema.md) describes standard database connectivity practices, such as using environment variables for credentials and local paths for configuration. No evidence of malicious intent, data exfiltration, or prompt injection was found.
Capability Assessment
Purpose & Capability
Name/description match the instructions: the skill tells the agent how to run the plydb CLI against heterogeneous data sources and how to supply config and overlays. There are no unrelated environment variables, binaries, or installs declared.
Instruction Scope
The SKILL.md stays on-topic (configure a JSON config, run plydb query/semantic-context, optionally supply overlays). However the documented config schema permits references to environment variable names and local secret files (S3 credential profiles, Google service-account key files, DB password env var names). Running the CLI with a config that references those items will give the CLI access to them, so the operator must supply only appropriate/least-privilege credentials and paths.
Install Mechanism
Instruction-only skill: no install spec, no downloads or code files. The SKILL.md expects the plydb binary to already exist and links to the upstream repo for installation instructions.
Credentials
The skill itself does not declare or require any env vars, but the documented config schema intentionally supports names of environment variables and file paths for credentials (e.g., AWS keys via access_key_env/secret_key_env, Google service account key_file, DB password_env_var). That is proportionate to a multi-source DB query tool, but it means sensitive env vars or key files may be used when you run the CLI.
Persistence & Privilege
Skill is not always-included, is user-invocable, and does not request system persistence or modify other skills. It only instructs the agent to execute the external plydb CLI with user-supplied config.
How to Use
- Make sure OpenClaw is installed (local or Docker)
- Run the install command in chat:
/install plydb - After installation, invoke the skill by name or use
/plydb - Provide required inputs per the skill's parameter spec and get structured output
