ClipBox
Developer toolkit for logging, tracking, and exporting entries across multiple categories. Each command records timestamped entries to its own log file. Call without arguments to view recent entries; call with arguments to record a new entry.
Commands
| Command | What it does |
|---|---|
clipbox check \x3Cinput> |
Record a check entry (no args = show recent) |
clipbox validate \x3Cinput> |
Record a validate entry (no args = show recent) |
clipbox generate \x3Cinput> |
Record a generate entry (no args = show recent) |
clipbox format \x3Cinput> |
Record a format entry (no args = show recent) |
clipbox lint \x3Cinput> |
Record a lint entry (no args = show recent) |
clipbox explain \x3Cinput> |
Record an explain entry (no args = show recent) |
clipbox convert \x3Cinput> |
Record a convert entry (no args = show recent) |
clipbox template \x3Cinput> |
Record a template entry (no args = show recent) |
clipbox diff \x3Cinput> |
Record a diff entry (no args = show recent) |
clipbox preview \x3Cinput> |
Record a preview entry (no args = show recent) |
clipbox fix \x3Cinput> |
Record a fix entry (no args = show recent) |
clipbox report \x3Cinput> |
Record a report entry (no args = show recent) |
clipbox stats |
Show summary statistics across all log files |
clipbox export \x3Cfmt> |
Export all data to json, csv, or txt format |
clipbox search \x3Cterm> |
Search all log entries for a keyword |
clipbox recent |
Show the 20 most recent history entries |
clipbox status |
Health check — version, entry count, disk usage, last activity |
clipbox help |
Show help message |
clipbox version |
Show version (v2.0.0) |
Data Storage
All data is stored locally in ~/.local/share/clipbox/. Each command writes to its own .log file (e.g., check.log, lint.log). A unified history.log tracks all activity with timestamps.
Requirements
- Bash 4+
- Standard Unix utilities (
wc,du,tail,grep,date,sed)
When to Use
- Logging code checks, lint results, or validation outcomes with timestamps
- Tracking format conversions, diffs, and template usage over time
- Searching historical entries by keyword across all categories
- Exporting accumulated data to JSON, CSV, or plain text for review
- Getting a quick status overview of entry counts and disk usage
Examples
# Record a lint finding
clipbox lint "unused variable 'count' in main.py line 42"
# Record a template usage
clipbox template "created new React component from base template"
# Search all logs for "main.py"
clipbox search main.py
# Export everything to JSON
clipbox export json
# View overall stats
clipbox stats
# Check health status
clipbox status

Usage Guidance
This skill appears coherent and works only on local files under ~/.local/share/clipbox. It does not request credentials or make network calls. Before installing or adding the script to your PATH: (1) avoid storing secrets or credentials in clip entries because exports are plain text and not sanitized; (2) be aware exports may produce invalid JSON if entries contain raw quotes/newlines (the script does not escape values); (3) if you plan to share exported files, inspect them first. If you want automatic installation behavior, ask the author for an install spec or audit how you install the script (don’t run unknown installers as root).
Capability Analysis
Type: OpenClaw Skill
Name: clipbox
Version: 2.0.0
The ClipBox skill is a standard utility for logging and managing text snippets locally in ~/.local/share/clipbox/. The bash script (scripts/script.sh) implements basic logging, searching, and exporting functionality using standard Unix utilities (grep, tail, wc) without any network activity, credential access, or suspicious execution patterns.
Capability Assessment
Purpose & Capability
Name/description (save and organize text snippets) align with the provided Bash script and SKILL.md. The script writes timestamped entries to per-command .log files in ~/.local/share/clipbox and provides search, stats, export, and status commands — all consistent with the stated purpose.
Instruction Scope
SKILL.md describes using the included CLI-style script and only references local operations (writing and reading logs, searching, exporting). The runtime instructions do not attempt to read unrelated system files, environment secrets, or transmit data externally.
Install Mechanism
There is no install spec in the registry entry (instruction-only), but a runnable scripts/script.sh is included. That is reasonable (user likely must install or symlink the script themselves), but the package does contain executable code even though no automated install is declared. No network downloads or third-party package installs are present.
Credentials
The skill requests no environment variables, no credentials, and only relies on HOME for the data directory (standard for local CLI tools). Requested utilities (wc, du, tail, grep, date, sed) match the script's usage.
Persistence & Privilege
always is false and the skill does not alter other skills or system configuration. It creates and uses its own per-user data directory (~/.local/share/clipbox) only.
How to Use
- Make sure OpenClaw is installed (local or Docker)
- Run the install command in chat:
/install clipbox - After installation, invoke the skill by name or use
/clipbox - Provide required inputs per the skill's parameter spec and get structured output
