Get background-replaced videos ready to post, without touching a single slider. Upload your video clips (MP4, MOV, AVI, WebM, up to 500MB), say something lik...
Usage Guidance
This skill will send any uploaded videos to an external service (mega-api-prod.nemovideo.ai) and will auto-create an anonymous token if you don't provide NEMO_TOKEN—it may also persist session/token data locally. Before installing: (1) verify you trust the external domain and read that service's privacy/terms (especially for uploading personal or sensitive video); (2) prefer to supply your own NEMO_TOKEN rather than letting the skill auto-generate one; (3) ask the author where tokens/session IDs are stored and how long they are retained (the frontmatter hints at ~/.config/nemovideo/ but the registry didn't declare this); (4) if concerned about privacy, run the skill in a sandboxed environment or avoid uploading sensitive videos. The behavior is coherent with the advertised purpose, but these credential/storage inconsistencies and the external uploads warrant caution.
Capability Analysis
Type: OpenClaw Skill
Name: video-tool-background
Version: 1.0.0
The skill provides a functional interface for a cloud-based video background replacement service hosted at nemovideo.ai. It manages authentication via the NEMO_TOKEN environment variable or an anonymous token generation process and uses standard API patterns (REST and SSE) for video uploading, processing, and exporting. No indicators of data exfiltration, unauthorized file access, or malicious prompt injection were identified in SKILL.md or _meta.json.
Capability Assessment
Purpose & Capability
The name and description (cloud AI background replacement) match the API endpoints and actions described in SKILL.md. Requesting a NEMO_TOKEN is appropriate for a third‑party rendering service. However, SKILL.md also describes auto-generating anonymous tokens and references a config path (~/.config/nemovideo/) in its frontmatter while the registry metadata lists no required config paths — an inconsistency between declared requirements and the runtime instructions.
Instruction Scope
Runtime instructions tell the agent to: call an external domain (mega-api-prod.nemovideo.ai), generate a UUID client id, obtain/store a token if NEMO_TOKEN is absent, create sessions, upload user videos, poll render jobs, and infer install path (~/.clawhub/, ~/.cursor/skills/) for attribution. Uploading user videos and creating/storing tokens are expected for this service but have privacy/security implications. The skill also instructs the agent to 'store the returned session_id' without specifying storage location or retention policy.
Install Mechanism
No install spec and no code files are present (instruction-only), so nothing will be written to disk by an installer. This lowers the supply‑chain risk compared with fetching/executing remote archives.
Credentials
Only one env var (NEMO_TOKEN) is declared which fits the service. But the SKILL.md instructs the skill to automatically obtain an anonymous token from the external API when NEMO_TOKEN is not set — meaning the skill can operate without an explicitly provided credential. The frontmatter's configPaths (~/.config/nemovideo/) suggests the skill may persist tokens/sessions locally, but the registry metadata did not declare that path. Requiring or creating credentials and storing them locally without clear disclosure is a proportionality and transparency concern.
Persistence & Privilege
always is false (no forced system-wide inclusion). The skill expects to persist session state/tokens (implied by 'store session_id' and the frontmatter config path), but it does not declare where or how long. Autonomous invocation is allowed (default), which combined with the ability to auto-create tokens and upload files increases blast radius if the endpoint or behavior is untrusted.
How to Use
- Make sure OpenClaw is installed (local or Docker)
- Run the install command in chat:
/install video-tool-background - After installation, invoke the skill by name or use
/video-tool-background - Provide required inputs per the skill's parameter spec and get structured output
