Description
Plan your day hour-by-hour with intentional time blocking. Use when blocking sessions, checking plans, analyzing allocation, generating agendas.
Usage Guidance
This skill appears to do exactly what it claims: log and manage time-block entries locally under ~/.local/share/timeblock. Before installing, be aware that: (1) it will create and update files in that directory; (2) you should avoid storing sensitive secrets or passwords in log entries since they are plain text; (3) exported JSON may be malformed if entries contain quotes or newlines, and search treats your query as a grep pattern (escape if needed). No network calls or credentials are requested, so the privacy surface is limited to local files.
Capability Analysis
Type: OpenClaw Skill
Name: timeblock
Version: 2.0.0
The TimeBlock skill is a local productivity tool for logging and managing time-blocking schedules. Analysis of the `scripts/script.sh` file shows it functions as a simple wrapper for appending timestamps and user input to flat log files stored in `~/.local/share/timeblock/`. While the script contains a logic bug where duplicate case labels for `export` and `status` prevent the actual utility functions from being reached, there is no evidence of malicious intent, data exfiltration, or high-risk behaviors.
Capability Assessment
Purpose & Capability
Name/description match the actual behavior. The skill provides a CLI script for creating and querying local timeblock logs and does not request unrelated binaries, credentials, or services.
Instruction Scope
SKILL.md instructs the agent to run the included bash script and stay local; the runtime instructions and script only read/write files in ~/.local/share/timeblock, show stats, search, and export. Minor implementation notes: JSON export does simple concatenation and does not escape values (entries containing quotes/newlines could produce invalid JSON), and search uses grep with the raw term which behaves as a pattern rather than a literal search—these are quality/robustness issues but not evidence of malicious scope creep.
Install Mechanism
No install spec; the skill is instruction-only with one included shell script. Nothing is downloaded or written outside the user's home data directory at runtime.
Credentials
No environment variables, credentials, or config paths are requested. The script only uses HOME to compute a local data directory—appropriate for the stated purpose.
Persistence & Privilege
always is false and the skill does not request elevated/persistent platform privileges or modify other skills. It creates and updates files only under its own data directory.
How to Use
- Make sure OpenClaw is installed (local or Docker)
- Run the install command in chat:
/install timeblock - After installation, invoke the skill by name or use
/timeblock - Provide required inputs per the skill's parameter spec and get structured output
