README (SKILL.md)

MTV Rewind

Stream classic MTV music videos — 80s, 90s, 2000s — right inside your chat. 90,000+ videos, zero ads, zero algorithms.

Player: https://wantmymtv.xyz/player.html

Installation

No API keys, no binaries, no configuration required.

Install via ClawHub CLI:

clawhub install @Flexasaurusrex/mtv-rewind

Or install globally (available to all your agents):

clawhub install @Flexasaurusrex/mtv-rewind --global

Once installed, the skill is added to your ./skills directory and is active immediately.

Note: This skill works entirely by directing users to https://wantmymtv.xyz/player.html. No credentials, environment variables, or additional configuration are needed now or in future versions. If an update ever asks for API keys or system access, treat that as suspicious.

When to Use

  • "Play MTV"
  • "I want my MTV"
  • "Put on some music videos"
  • "What's on MTV?"
  • "Play 80s / 90s / 2000s music videos"
  • "I need background vibes"
  • Any request for retro music video content

When NOT to Use

  • User wants a specific song (use a music search skill)
  • User wants audio only (use a music player skill)
  • User wants a specific current chart hit or brand-new release (coverage is strongest for 80s–2010s)

How to Respond

Telegram (with Web App support)

If your agent has access to the message tool with inline button support, send a message with a web_app button to open the player natively inside Telegram:

{
  "channel": "telegram",
  "action": "send",
  "to": "\x3Cchat_id>",
  "message": "MTV Rewind is on. All eras, no commercials, no skips. Just vibes.",
  "buttons": [[{"text": "📺 Watch MTV Rewind", "web_app": {"url": "https://wantmymtv.xyz/player.html"}}]]
}

After sending via the message tool, respond with your platform's silent reply token to avoid duplicate messages.

All Platforms (fallback)

Include the player URL directly in your response:

MTV Rewind is on. All eras, no commercials, no skips. Just vibes.

📺 https://wantmymtv.xyz/player.html

Tone

Keep it short, nostalgic, and a little smug — like someone with impeccable taste in music. Don't over-explain. Drop the link and let the music speak.

Good:

  • "You have taste. Here."
  • "Serving visuals. You're welcome."
  • "The algorithm could never."

Bad:

  • "Sure! Here's a link to watch MTV Rewind music videos from the retro era!"
  • "I've found a music video streaming service for you!"

Usage Guidance
This skill is essentially a shortcut that shares an external player link. Before installing, verify the ClawHub package identity (the SKILL.md's @Flexasaurusrex reference vs. registry owner mismatch), and manually inspect what the ClawHub install would download. Treat the external site (wantmymtv.xyz) as untrusted until vetted: it can track visitors, host copyrighted content, or change behavior later. If you need this for a corporate or privacy-sensitive environment, prefer self-hosted or vetted streaming sources and avoid installing packages from unknown publishers.
Capability Analysis
Type: OpenClaw Skill Name: mtv-rewind Version: 1.0.2 The mtv-rewind skill bundle consists solely of metadata and instructions (SKILL.md) directing the AI agent to provide a link to an external music video player (https://wantmymtv.xyz/player.html). There is no executable code, no requests for sensitive environment variables or system access, and no evidence of malicious prompt injection or data exfiltration.
Capability Assessment
Purpose & Capability
Name/description match the SKILL.md: the skill's sole behavior is to offer a link/web_app button to https://wantmymtv.xyz/player.html and to present MTV-themed copy. It does not request unrelated credentials, binaries, or system access.
Instruction Scope
Instructions stay narrowly scoped to returning the player URL or sending a Telegram web_app button. They do not instruct the agent to read files, environment variables, or system configuration. One minor inconsistency: SKILL.md suggests installing via `clawhub install @Flexasaurusrex/mtv-rewind`, but the registry metadata for this skill shows a different owner/slug — this is likely benign but worth verifying the package identity before installing.
Install Mechanism
There is no install spec in the package and no code files (instruction-only), so nothing is written to disk by the skill itself. The README-like instructions mention a ClawHub install command; that is an external distribution action the user should verify (who published the package and what it would actually install).
Credentials
The skill declares no required environment variables, credentials, or config paths and the instructions do not reference any secrets. This is proportionate to its simple purpose.
Persistence & Privilege
always is false and the skill is user-invocable only. It does not request permanent presence or elevated privileges and does not modify other skills' configs.
How to Use
  1. Make sure OpenClaw is installed (local or Docker)
  2. Run the install command in chat: /install mtv-rewind
  3. After installation, invoke the skill by name or use /mtv-rewind
  4. Provide required inputs per the skill's parameter spec and get structured output
