Description
Switchgear specification manager. Use when json switchgear tasks, csv switchgear tasks, checking switchgear status.
Usage Guidance
This skill appears to be a simple local record manager that stores data under ~/.switchgear (or the directory you set with SWITCHGEAR_DIR). Before installing, consider: 1) it will create and modify files in that directory (data.jsonl and config.txt) — inspect them if you want to verify contents; 2) it does not perform network I/O or request credentials, so it has limited blast radius; 3) the script uses standard Unix utilities (grep, sed, tail) so behavior may differ on non-GNU platforms (macOS sed -i differences). If you are comfortable with local file storage and want a small CLI for switchgear entries, this skill is coherent with its description.
Capability Analysis
Type: OpenClaw Skill
Name: switchgear
Version: 1.0.0
The 'switchgear' skill is a local management tool for tracking specifications, storing data in a flat-file JSONL format within the user's home directory (~/.switchgear). The bash script (scripts/script.sh) implements standard CRUD operations (add, list, search, remove) and configuration management without any network activity, data exfiltration, or suspicious execution patterns.
Capability Assessment
Purpose & Capability
Name/description (switchgear spec manager, JSON/CSV tasks, status) match the shipped script: a local CLI that records, lists, searches, exports, and configures entries stored under SWITCHGEAR_DIR (default ~/.switchgear). No unrelated services or credentials are required.
Instruction Scope
SKILL.md instructs the agent to run scripts/script.sh for the documented commands. The script only reads/writes files under the data directory and standard local tools (grep, sed, tail, etc.); it does not read other system-wide config, environment secrets, or contact external endpoints.
Install Mechanism
No install spec is present (instruction-only with an included script). Nothing is downloaded or written to system locations during install; runtime creates user data under the configured data directory.
Credentials
No required environment variables or credentials are declared. The script optionally honors SWITCHGEAR_DIR to set the data directory (reasonable and proportional). It reads $HOME implicitly to default the data dir, which is expected.
Persistence & Privilege
The skill does not request permanent platform-wide presence (always:false). It persists only its own data under the user's data directory and does not modify other skills or global agent settings.
How to Use
- Make sure OpenClaw is installed (local or Docker)
- Run the install command in chat:
/install switchgear - After installation, invoke the skill by name or use
/switchgear - Provide required inputs per the skill's parameter spec and get structured output
