Usage Guidance
This skill appears to be a simple local expense logger. Before installing/run: (1) review or run the included src/expense-log.js in a safe environment to confirm behavior, (2) note it writes to ./expenses.json by default — back up any existing file with that name or set a different dataFile path, (3) consider running it in a container or isolated workspace if you don't fully trust the author, and (4) be aware that errors during save are silently ignored by the code (risk of data not being persisted). There are no indications of network exfiltration or requests for secrets.
Capability Analysis
Type: OpenClaw Skill Name: expense-log Version: 1.0.0 The ExpenseLog skill is a straightforward utility for tracking expenses locally. The core logic in `src/expense-log.js` manages data using a local JSON file (`expenses.json`) and lacks any network requests, external data exfiltration, or suspicious execution patterns. The instructions in `SKILL.md` and `README.md` are purely descriptive and do not contain prompt injection attempts or requests for unauthorized permissions.
Capability Assessment
Purpose & Capability
Name/description match the provided code and SKILL.md: natural-language expense logging, auto-categorization, budgets, CSV export. The Node.js file implements these features and only reads/writes a local JSON file; nothing requested is out of scope.
Instruction Scope
SKILL.md limits runtime actions to logging, reporting, and exporting. It does not instruct the agent to read unrelated system files, access other services, or transmit data externally. The embedded disclaimer and README align with the implementation (local storage).
Install Mechanism
No install spec is provided (instruction-only), and the included code is pure Node.js using only built-in 'fs'. No external downloads or package installs are required by the manifest.
Credentials
The skill declares no environment variables, no credentials, and no config paths. That matches the code which relies only on a local data file (default './expenses.json').
Persistence & Privilege
The skill is not marked 'always' and uses no special privileges. It writes and reads its own local data file only and does not modify other skills or global agent configuration.
How to Use
  1. Make sure OpenClaw is installed (local or Docker)
  2. Run the install command in chat: /install expense-log
  3. After installation, invoke the skill by name or use /expense-log
  4. Provide required inputs per the skill's parameter spec and get structured output
