Description
Structured reasoning through sequential thinking — break complex problems into steps, solve each independently, verify consistency, synthesize conclusions wi...
Usage Guidance
This skill is coherent with its purpose, but be aware that all questions and intermediate reasoning are sent to OpenRouter (so do not include secrets or private data in prompts). Ensure you trust the OpenRouter service and the holder of OPENROUTER_API_KEY; rotate the key if it is shared. Install the requests Python package in a controlled environment (pip install requests). Review the script if you need to limit which model names are allowed (the --model flag accepts arbitrary model identifiers) to reduce the risk of accidentally using an untrusted model endpoint. Finally, test the skill with non-sensitive inputs first to confirm behavior and outputs.
Capability Analysis
Type: OpenClaw Skill
Name: sequential-thinking
Version: 1.0.0
The sequential-thinking skill is a legitimate implementation of a multi-step reasoning wrapper for the OpenRouter API. The Python script (scripts/sequential_think.py) performs structured LLM calls to decompose, solve, verify, and synthesize answers as described in the documentation. It does not exhibit any signs of data exfiltration, malicious execution, or prompt injection; it only accesses the required OPENROUTER_API_KEY environment variable to function.
Capability Assessment
Purpose & Capability
Name/description describe stepwise decomposition and verification; the included Python script implements exactly that flow (decompose → solve steps → optional verify → synthesize) and only requires an OpenRouter API key. No unrelated capabilities or credentials are requested.
Instruction Scope
Runtime instructions and the script send user questions and intermediate step content to OpenRouter's chat completion endpoint — this is expected for an LLM-based reasoning skill but means user data (including intermediate reasoning) is transmitted to a third party. The script also attempts to parse JSON from model responses and falls back to regex extraction, which is normal but can fail if the model output is malformed.
Install Mechanism
No install spec — instruction-only plus a small Python script. The only external dependency is the requests Python package (the script prints a helpful error if requests is missing). There are no downloads from arbitrary URLs or archive extraction.
Credentials
Only OPENROUTER_API_KEY is required and declared as the primary credential, which matches the script's use. No additional secrets, config paths, or unrelated credentials are requested.
Persistence & Privilege
The skill does not request always:true, does not modify other skills or system-wide settings, and does not persist extra privileges; it runs as a one-off script invoked by the agent/user.
How to Use
- Make sure OpenClaw is installed (local or Docker)
- Run the install command in chat:
/install sequential-thinking - After installation, invoke the skill by name or use
/sequential-thinking - Provide required inputs per the skill's parameter spec and get structured output
