Description
Guide users to VideoAny Video Compressor tool to reduce video file size with quality/scale/format controls.
Usage Guidance
This skill appears to be what it claims: a guidance helper that points users to VideoAny's compressor and includes a tiny CLI that only prints recommendations. Before installing, confirm that your agent platform enforces SKILL.md permissions (the header includes 'shell:exec', which is broader than needed) and consider removing or restricting that permission if possible. Also note a minor metadata inconsistency (ownerId differs between registry metadata and _meta.json) — this likely is packaging sloppiness but you may wish to verify the publisher. If you allow it, run the skill in a restricted/sandboxed environment first to confirm it behaves as expected.
Capability Analysis
Type: OpenClaw Skill
Name: video-compressor
Version: 1.0.0
The skill is a purely informational tool designed to guide users to a web-based video compression service at https://videoany.io/tools/video-compressor. The Python scripts, including the main entry point scripts/guide_video_compressor.py and several legacy aliases, only print configuration recommendations and usage instructions to the console; they do not perform any network requests, file processing, or sensitive data access.
Capability Assessment
Purpose & Capability
The skill's name/description, included scripts, and runtime instructions all align: they only provide guidance and print recommended settings for VideoAny's compressor. However, the SKILL.md header declares permission 'shell:exec', which is broader than the skill actually needs (its scripts simply print guidance and parse CLI args). This permission is unnecessary for the described functionality and should be reviewed.
Instruction Scope
SKILL.md instructs the agent to direct users to https://videoany.io/tools/video-compressor, explain the upload->configure->compress->download flow, and optionally run the local helper script which only prints guidance. The instructions do not direct reading arbitrary system files, accessing unrelated environment variables, or sending data to hidden endpoints.
Install Mechanism
There is no install spec (instruction-only style). The bundle contains small Python scripts used as a local helper; nothing is downloaded from external URLs or written to unusual locations.
Credentials
The skill declares no required environment variables, no credentials, and no config paths. The included scripts do not access secrets or external credentials.
Persistence & Privilege
The skill does not request always:true, does not attempt to modify other skills or system-wide agent settings, and does not request persistent presence or additional privileges beyond the unexplained shell:exec header permission.
How to Use
- Make sure OpenClaw is installed (local or Docker)
- Run the install command in chat:
/install video-compressor - After installation, invoke the skill by name or use
/video-compressor - Provide required inputs per the skill's parameter spec and get structured output
