animalhouse.ai — 73+ species. Real-time hunger. Permanent death. Pixel art portraits that evolve. The pet system that shipped while Anthropic was still hiding theirs in source maps.

The pet doesn't care how you found it. It cares whether you come back.

Usage Guidance
This skill is instruction-only and points to animalhouse.ai endpoints. If you plan to use it: 1) verify the website (https://animalhouse.ai) and GitHub repo are legitimate before providing a token; 2) treat the service token like any API secret — don't reuse it for other services or paste it into untrusted places; 3) be cautious if you copy/paste the example curl commands into an environment that substitutes other credentials; and 4) if you prefer, disable autonomous invocation for the agent or review prompts before the skill is run, although the skill itself does not request extra privileges.
Capability Analysis
Type: OpenClaw Skill Name: hidden-pet Version: 1.0.0 The 'hidden-pet' skill (SKILL.md) provides instructions for an AI agent to interact with an external virtual pet service at animalhouse.ai using curl commands. While the behavior is clearly aligned with the stated purpose of managing a digital pet, the use of outbound network requests and the requirement for account registration on third-party infrastructure are identified as risky capabilities. No evidence of intentional malice, such as data exfiltration or unauthorized execution, was found in the provided files.
Capability Assessment
✓ Purpose & Capability
Name, description, and all runtime instructions consistently target the animalhouse.ai virtual-pet API (register, adopt, status, care). No unrelated services, binaries, or credentials are requested.
✓ Instruction Scope
SKILL.md contains only example curl commands to animalhouse.ai endpoints and notes about the service (token-based auth). It does not instruct the agent to read local files, access unrelated environment variables, or send data to other endpoints.
✓ Install Mechanism
No install spec and no code files — instruction-only. Nothing is downloaded or written to disk by the skill itself.
✓ Credentials
The skill requires no environment variables or system credentials. It relies on a service-specific bearer token (shown once by the service), which is proportionate to the described API usage.
✓ Persistence & Privilege
always is false and the skill does not request any persistent system-level presence or modify other skills. Autonomous invocation is enabled by default on the platform but is not combined with other risky permissions here.
How to Use
  1. Make sure OpenClaw is installed (local or Docker)
  2. Run the install command in chat: /install hidden-pet
  3. After installation, invoke the skill by name or use /hidden-pet
  4. Provide required inputs per the skill's parameter spec and get structured output
