Description
Control Alexa devices via VoiceMonkey API v2 - make announcements, trigger routines, start flows, and display media.
Usage Guidance
This skill appears to do what it says: it uses a single VoiceMonkey API token to call VoiceMonkey endpoints to announce messages, trigger routines, start flows, and display media on Echo devices. Before installing, consider: (1) the VOICEMONKEY_TOKEN is powerful — anyone with it can control your Echo/Alexa devices, so only provide a token you trust the skill with; (2) the SKILL.md suggests storing the token in ~/.clawdbot/clawdbot.json — keep that file protected (restrict file permissions) or prefer setting the token as an environment variable; (3) because the agent can invoke the skill autonomously (default), review agent policies or prompts that could cause unintended announcements/triggers. If you need more assurance, ask the skill author for a privacy/security statement or request the skill be implemented as an explicit, non-autonomous action.
Capability Analysis
Type: OpenClaw Skill Name: voicemonkey Version: 1.0.0 The OpenClaw AgentSkills skill bundle for VoiceMonkey is benign. The `SKILL.md` file provides clear instructions and `curl` examples for interacting with the VoiceMonkey API, which is its stated purpose. It requires a `VOICEMONKEY_TOKEN` for authentication, which is standard for API-based skills. There is no evidence of data exfiltration, malicious execution (e.g., `curl|bash`), persistence mechanisms, or prompt injection attempts against the agent within the skill's definition. While the API allows displaying arbitrary URLs for images, videos, or websites, the skill itself uses `example.com` placeholders and does not instruct the agent to use malicious URLs or perform any harmful actions.
Capability Assessment
Purpose & Capability
Name/description (VoiceMonkey control of Alexa devices) aligns with required credential VOICEMONKEY_TOKEN and the API endpoints shown in SKILL.md. No unrelated services, binaries, or config paths are requested.
Instruction Scope
SKILL.md is an instruction-only integration that demonstrates direct API calls (curl) to VoiceMonkey endpoints and shows how to set the VOICEMONKEY_TOKEN. It also suggests storing the token in ~/.clawdbot/clawdbot.json; this is reasonable but worth noting because it instructs where to persist the secret.
Install Mechanism
No install spec and no code files — lowest-risk model for install. The skill is purely instructions showing HTTP API usage.
Credentials
Only one required environment variable (VOICEMONKEY_TOKEN) is declared and used consistently in examples. This credential is necessary and sufficient for the described API operations, though it grants full control of connected devices.
Persistence & Privilege
always is false and there is no installation that modifies other skills or system-wide settings. Note: model invocation is allowed (default), so the agent could call the API autonomously if permitted by the platform.
How to Use
  1. Make sure OpenClaw is installed (local or Docker)
  2. Run the install command in chat: /install voicemonkey
  3. After installation, invoke the skill by name or use /voicemonkey
  4. Provide required inputs per the skill's parameter spec and get structured output
