Description

README (SKILL.md)

KitchenOwl CLI Skill

Use this skill when the user wants to install and operate KitchenOwl via the kitchenowl CLI.

Install and verify

Prefer pipx for isolated CLI installs.

pipx install kitchenowl-cli
kitchenowl --help
kitchenowl --version

Upgrade:

pipx upgrade kitchenowl-cli

Authentication

kitchenowl auth login --server https://kitchenowl.example.com
kitchenowl auth status
kitchenowl auth logout

auth login accepts --username and --password flags (or prompts interactively) and always asks for the server when --server is omitted, defaulting to the last saved host. The CLI stores server_url, access_token, refresh_token, user, and any saved defaults in ~/.config/kitchenowl/config.json (or $XDG_CONFIG_HOME/kitchenowl/config.json). auth logout removes the tokens from that file but leaves the configured server URL.

Command usage rules

Start with read-only commands before mutating data.
Ask for confirmation before destructive commands (delete, remove-item, bulk edits).
Prefer explicit IDs and --household-id for all scoped commands.
Use --json whenever output is consumed programmatically.

Core command groups

Use references/commands.md as the canonical command set for:

auth
config/server settings
households and members
shopping lists
recipes
users

Usage Guidance

This skill is internally consistent with its purpose (install and use the KitchenOwl CLI). Before installing: review the kitchenowl-cli project (the metadata references a GitHub repo) to confirm it's the legitimate package; pipx installs code from PyPI so you should trust the package/maintainer. Be aware the CLI stores server_url, access_token and refresh_token in ~/.config/kitchenowl/config.json (or $XDG_CONFIG_HOME). If you provide credentials, plan to revoke tokens if you uninstall or no longer trust the package, and avoid using high‑privilege or shared credentials. If you want extra caution, inspect the package source or run it in a disposable environment before granting real credentials.

Capability Analysis

Type: OpenClaw Skill Name: kitchenowl Version: 1.0.0 The skill bundle is designed to install and operate the `kitchenowl-cli` using `pipx`. All commands and instructions are directly related to this stated purpose, including installation, authentication, and various command groups for managing KitchenOwl resources. The `SKILL.md` provides clear guidance to the AI agent, including best practices like asking for confirmation before destructive commands. There is no evidence of data exfiltration, malicious execution, persistence mechanisms, prompt injection attempts to subvert the agent's purpose, or obfuscation. The storage of tokens in `~/.config/kitchenowl/config.json` is standard for CLI tools and not an instruction for exfiltration.

Capability Assessment

✓ Purpose & Capability

Name/description state installing and using kitchenowl-cli; the skill declares the kitchenowl CLI binary and shows pipx install in the instructions and metadata. Required items (binary name, pipx install) are proportional to the purpose.

✓ Instruction Scope

SKILL.md only instructs how to install, authenticate, and run read/write CLI commands. It documents that the CLI persists server_url, access_token, refresh_token, and user in ~/.config/kitchenowl/config.json, but does not direct the agent to read unrelated files or exfiltrate data to unexpected endpoints.

ℹ Install Mechanism

The skill recommends pipx install kitchenowl-cli (typical for Python CLIs). This installs third‑party code from PyPI into the environment — a normal mechanism but one that requires trusting the package source and maintainer.

✓ Credentials

The skill requests no environment variables or unrelated credentials. The only sensitive data referenced are the CLI's access/refresh tokens stored in the user's XDG config path, which is expected for an auth'd CLI.

✓ Persistence & Privilege

always is false and the skill does not request persistent system privileges or modifications to other skills. It only instructs use of the CLI and does not attempt to change agent/system configuration.

How to Use

Make sure OpenClaw is installed (local or Docker)
