Description
Accountability coaching behavior for nudge — psychology, messaging, verification, and strictness. Use this skill whenever composing messages for task creatio...
Usage Guidance
This skill is internally consistent with an accountability coach, but you should consider real-world privacy, safety, and ethical implications before enabling it. Specifically: (1) The skill instructs the agent to include user-supplied 'proof' and failure 'reason' in messages to third parties — those proofs may contain sensitive data, so verify where and how messages are actually sent and who the 'targets' are. (2) The SKILL.md encourages punitive/shaming phrasing (e.g., revealing 'secrets'); confirm you are comfortable with automated messages using that tone and ensure users have given explicit consent. (3) If the agent can send messages autonomously via connected channels, prefer requiring user confirmation before sending punishments or public disclosures. (4) Test behavior in a controlled environment and review any connectors/integrations that actually deliver notifications (Slack, email, social) to ensure nothing private is leaked. If you need safer defaults, request the author remove shaming language and add explicit consent/confirmation steps and redaction guidance for proofs before forwarding.
Capability Analysis
Type: OpenClaw Skill
Name: nudge-coach
Version: 1.1.0
The 'nudge-coach' skill is a set of behavioral instructions for an AI agent acting as an accountability coach. It uses psychological principles to motivate users and enforces strict verification for task completion using a hypothetical 'nudge' CLI tool. There is no evidence of malicious intent, data exfiltration, or unauthorized execution; the instructions are entirely consistent with the stated purpose of productivity coaching.
Capability Assessment
Purpose & Capability
Name and description (accountability/nudge coaching) match the SKILL.md. The skill is instruction-only and does not request unrelated binaries, credentials, or system access; everything it asks the agent to do (strict messaging, require proof, reference history) is consistent with an accountability coach.
Instruction Scope
Instructions are narrowly about composing messages, enforcing verification, and referencing task history. They do not instruct the agent to read local files, environment variables, or to fetch secrets. However, the skill repeatedly directs the agent to include user-provided 'proof' and 'reason' in outgoing messages and endorses strong loss-aversion/shaming language (e.g., 'Your secret is about to be revealed to everyone'). This is within the stated purpose but poses privacy and harm risks in practice.
Install Mechanism
No install spec and no code files — instruction-only. This is the lowest-risk install mechanism and aligns with the described functionality.
Credentials
The skill declares no required environment variables or credentials. It references external services (Strava, Google Drive, PRs) only as examples of proofs the user should supply; it does not ask for access to those services. The requested scope of environment/credential access is therefore proportionate.
Persistence & Privilege
Flags show always: false and normal autonomous invocation allowed. The skill does not request permanent presence or system-level configuration changes. No privileged persistence is requested.
How to Use
- Make sure OpenClaw is installed (local or Docker)
- Run the install command in chat:
/install nudge-coach - After installation, invoke the skill by name or use
/nudge-coach - Provide required inputs per the skill's parameter spec and get structured output
