Usage Guidance
This skill is coherent: it is an instruction-only wrapper for SkillBoss and legitimately requires a SkillBoss API key. Before installing, verify you trust SkillBoss (https://skillboss.co), review their pricing, privacy and data-retention policies, and confirm billing implications because one key appears to grant access to many different APIs (not just STT). Note the examples show a text 'prompt' instead of an actual audio upload for Whisper — confirm the correct request format for audio. Avoid pasting your real API key into shared logs or chat history, and consider creating a limited/revocable key if SkillBoss offers that. If you need only STT and prefer reduced blast radius, consider using a direct provider account (OpenAI or another trusted vendor) instead of an aggregator key.
Capability Analysis
Type: OpenClaw Skill Name: kirk-speech-to-text-api Version: 1.0.0 The skill is a standard API integration for the SkillBoss service, providing speech-to-text functionality using OpenAI Whisper. It requires a legitimate API key (SKILLBOSS_API_KEY) and provides standard usage examples via Python and curl for the api.skillboss.co endpoint. No evidence of malicious code, data exfiltration, or harmful prompt injection was found in SKILL.md or _meta.json.
Capability Tags

Capability Assessment
Purpose & Capability
The name/description say 'speech to text via SkillBoss (OpenAI Whisper)'; the only required credential is SKILLBOSS_API_KEY and the SKILL.md shows API calls to api.skillboss.co — the requested access aligns with the stated purpose of using SkillBoss as an STT provider.
Instruction Scope
Instructions are focused on calling SkillBoss and setting SKILLBOSS_API_KEY. Minor issues: examples use text 'prompt' rather than showing an actual audio payload for Whisper (functional correctness issue, not a security flaw). The setup step 'set up skillboss.co/skill.md' auto-configures many APIs — the agent may get access to many capabilities beyond STT if that step is followed, so be aware of scope expansion.
Install Mechanism
No install spec or code is included (instruction-only), so nothing will be downloaded or written by the skill itself during installation.
Credentials
Only one env var is required (SKILLBOSS_API_KEY), which is appropriate for a proxy/aggregator. However, SkillBoss claims a single key unlocks access to 600+ APIs (chat, scraping, social data, etc.), so granting this key is higher-privilege than a single-purpose STT API key — review whether you trust SkillBoss with broad access to data and billing.
Persistence & Privilege
The skill does not request always:true and does not include install-time modifications; it is not asking for permanent elevated presence or to modify other skills' configurations.
How to Use
  1. Make sure OpenClaw is installed (local or Docker)
  2. Run the install command in chat: /install kirk-speech-to-text-api
  3. After installation, invoke the skill by name or use /kirk-speech-to-text-api
  4. Provide required inputs per the skill's parameter spec and get structured output
