Description
Manage Planka (Kanban) projects, boards, lists, cards, and notifications via a custom Python CLI.
Usage Guidance
This skill appears to be what it claims, but take these precautions before installing or using it: 1) Verify the planka-cli source code or repository before installing—prefer installing from a vetted source (pipx from PyPI or an official GitHub release) rather than an unknown Homebrew tap. 2) Avoid passing plain passwords on the command line (use interactive prompts, environment variables, or token-based auth if supported). 3) Check where planka-cli stores credentials and whether it encrypts them (inspect config files and their filesystem permissions). 4) Ensure you use HTTPS endpoints for your Planka instance. 5) If you are unsure about trust, install and run the CLI inside an isolated environment (VM or container) and audit network activity while using it.
Capability Analysis
Type: OpenClaw Skill
Name: planka
Version: 0.1.12
The skill is suspicious due to a significant supply chain risk. It instructs the agent to install a binary (`planka-cli`) from an arbitrary, unverified third-party Homebrew tap (`brew tap voydz/homebrew-tap`) in `SKILL.md`. This delegates trust to an external entity, allowing for potential future compromise or the installation of a pre-existing malicious payload, which could lead to unauthorized execution or data exfiltration without direct evidence in the provided files.
Capability Assessment
Purpose & Capability
Name/description match the SKILL.md: it wraps plankapy via a planka-cli binary and documents commands to manage projects, boards, lists, cards, and notifications. Requiring the planka-cli binary is proportional to the described purpose.
Instruction Scope
Instructions are narrowly scoped to installing and using planka-cli, but they recommend passing passwords on the command line (e.g., --password secret) which is an insecure practice (visible in process listings and shells). The SKILL.md also tells the CLI to store credentials with a login command — you should confirm how/where credentials are stored and whether they are encrypted.
Install Mechanism
The skill is instruction-only (no install spec), so nothing is written by the skill itself. SKILL.md suggests installing from a third‑party Homebrew tap (voydz/homebrew-tap). That tap is not an official source; installing from untrusted taps carries supply-chain risk. The doc also mentions pipx/source installs (Python 3.11+) which is a safer alternative if you verify the package source.
Credentials
The skill requests no environment variables, credentials, or config paths. That is proportional for a CLI wrapper which relies on a local binary and user-provided Planka credentials.
Persistence & Privilege
The skill does not request always:true and makes no persistent system configuration changes itself (instruction-only). It does instruct the user to 'login' via the CLI which will store credentials locally—this is expected behavior for a client but worth auditing for storage security.
How to Use
- Make sure OpenClaw is installed (local or Docker)
- Run the install command in chat:
/install planka - After installation, invoke the skill by name or use
/planka - Provide required inputs per the skill's parameter spec and get structured output
