Description
Generate AI videos from text prompts or images with Seedance 2.0 on SkillBoss. Best for short ads, product demos, launch clips, and social videos.
Usage Guidance
This skill appears to be what it claims (a SkillBoss front-end for Seedance video generation) but the SKILL.md examples use an environment variable SKILLBOSS_API_KEY while the registry metadata lists no required env vars. Before installing or enabling:
- Confirm where and how you must provide a SkillBoss API key (SKILLBOSS_API_KEY). The metadata should explicitly list this required credential; ask the publisher to fix the manifest if it's missing.
- Remember generated requests and any reference images will be sent to https://api.skillboss.co — don't upload sensitive images or confidential text unless you trust SkillBoss's handling and billing.
- Verify the skill's publisher/source (homepage is provided, but the repository/source is unknown). Prefer skills with a published repo or verified publisher.
- Check SkillBoss pricing/billing for per-second charges before generating videos.
- Because this is instruction-only (no code to audit), treat it as higher risk than a published open-source skill — request the publisher to declare required env vars and provide a public repository or additional provenance if you need higher assurance.
Capability Analysis
Type: OpenClaw Skill
Name: modesty-seedance-video
Version: 1.0.0
The skill bundle is a standard integration for the Seedance 2.0 video generation service via the SkillBoss API. The documentation in SKILL.md and README.md provides legitimate usage examples, API endpoints (api.skillboss.co), and operational guidance for the AI agent without any evidence of malicious intent, data exfiltration, or suspicious execution patterns.

Capability Assessment
Purpose & Capability
The skill's stated purpose (Seedance/SkillBoss video generation) matches the instructions (POST to https://api.skillboss.co/v1/run, model seedance/seedance-2.0). However, examples and agent guidance assume an environment variable SKILLBOSS_API_KEY for Authorization, while the registry metadata declares no required env vars — this mismatch is unexpected and problematic.
Instruction Scope
SKILL.md stays on-topic: it describes forming POST requests to SkillBoss, supported options, and expected outputs. It does not instruct reading unrelated local files or unusual system paths. The only scope issue is the implicit use of SKILLBOSS_API_KEY in examples and guidance despite that not being declared in metadata.
Install Mechanism
Instruction-only skill with no install spec and no code files — lowest install risk. There are no downloads, extracted archives, or package installs to evaluate.
Credentials
The skill legitimately needs an API key to call SkillBoss, but the skill metadata does not declare any required environment variables. Requiring SKILLBOSS_API_KEY (shown in examples) without declaring it is an inconsistency. No unrelated credentials are requested, which is good, but the omission reduces transparency.
Persistence & Privilege
always is false and the skill is user-invocable; it does not request permanent/automatic inclusion or attempt to modify other skills' configuration. Autonomous invocation is allowed (platform default) but is not combined with other high-risk flags.
How to Use
- Make sure OpenClaw is installed (local or Docker)
- Run the install command in chat:
/install modesty-seedance-video - After installation, invoke the skill by name or use
/modesty-seedance-video - Provide required inputs per the skill's parameter spec and get structured output
