Description
Control remote Windows machines via SSH. Use when executing commands on Windows, checking GPU status (nvidia-smi), running scripts, or managing remote Windows systems. Triggers on "run on Windows", "execute on remote", "check GPU", "nvidia-smi", "远程执行", "Windows 命令".
Usage Guidance
This skill appears to do exactly what it claims: run SSH/SCP commands against a configured Windows host. Before installing, ensure you: (1) only point WINDOWS_SSH_HOST and WINDOWS_SSH_USER at machines you trust, (2) protect your SSH private key (use key files with tight permissions), (3) be aware the scripts disable host-key checking (StrictHostKeyChecking=no) which makes MITM attacks easier — consider enabling host-key checking if you can, and (4) remember the skill can run arbitrary commands on the configured host, so do not expose it to untrusted networks or machines.
Capability Analysis
Type: OpenClaw Skill Name: windows-remote Version: 1.0.0 This skill is classified as suspicious due to its broad remote execution and file transfer capabilities via SSH/SCP, which inherently involve high-risk operations. A key concern is the use of `-o StrictHostKeyChecking=no` in all SSH and SCP commands (`scripts/win-download.sh`, `scripts/win-exec.sh`, `scripts/win-upload.sh`), which disables host key verification and makes connections vulnerable to Man-in-the-Middle attacks. While these capabilities are aligned with the stated purpose of remote Windows control, this specific security configuration significantly lowers the security posture, making the skill risky without clear malicious intent.
Capability Assessment
Purpose & Capability
Name/description (remote Windows control via SSH) align with required binaries (ssh) and required env vars (WINDOWS_SSH_HOST, WINDOWS_SSH_USER). The included scripts (ssh/scp wrappers) directly implement the stated functionality.
Instruction Scope
SKILL.md only instructs setting SSH-related env vars and running the provided scripts to exec, upload, download, and query GPU status. The scripts accept arbitrary commands to run on the configured host (expected for a remote-control skill). Note: the scripts set StrictHostKeyChecking=no which weakens SSH host-key verification (security tradeoff, not incoherent).
Install Mechanism
This is instruction-only with no install spec — nothing is downloaded or written by an installer. The only runtime dependency is the ssh binary, which is reasonable for the described purpose.
Credentials
Required env vars (host, user) and optional SSH-related vars (port, key, timeout) are appropriate and proportional to a remote-SSH skill. No unrelated secrets or external service credentials are requested.
Persistence & Privilege
The skill is not always-enabled and does not request elevated platform privileges or modify other skills. It suggests storing its own env in the user's ~/.openclaw/openclaw.json (expected configuration guidance). Model/autonomous invocation is enabled by default (normal for skills) but not combined with other concerning privileges.
How to Use
  1. Make sure OpenClaw is installed (local or Docker)
  2. Run the install command in chat: /install windows-remote
  3. After installation, invoke the skill by name or use /windows-remote
  4. Provide required inputs per the skill's parameter spec and get structured output
