Description
How to write well-structured Basic Memory notes: frontmatter, observations with semantic categories, relations with wiki-links, and best practices for buildi...
Usage Guidance
This skill is an authoring/style guide for creating notes and appears internally consistent and low risk. Before enabling: confirm whether your agent/platform exposes a write_note or memory API and what credentials or permissions that API requires (this skill describes the expected format but doesn't request credentials itself). If you allow the agent to autonomously create notes, review the agent’s permissions for the memory store so it can only write to intended locations. Otherwise, it's safe to use as a documentation/template resource.
Capability Analysis
Type: OpenClaw Skill
Name: memory-notes
Version: 0.1.0
The skill bundle provides comprehensive instructions for an AI agent to manage a structured knowledge graph using a system called 'Basic Memory'. The SKILL.md file defines a specific markdown format for notes (including frontmatter, observations, and relations) and provides guidance on using internal tools like write_note, edit_note, and search_notes. There is no evidence of malicious intent, data exfiltration, or harmful prompt injection.
Capability Assessment
Purpose & Capability
Name/description (
Instruction Scope
SKILL.md contains only formatting and writing rules for markdown notes and examples. It does not instruct reading arbitrary files, accessing environment variables, or sending data to external endpoints.
Install Mechanism
No install spec and no code files — instruction-only skill. That is the lowest-risk model and consistent with the skill's purpose.
Credentials
The skill declares no required environment variables, credentials, or config paths. The content references other skills (memory-schema) for schema details, which is a reasonable cross-reference and does not demand extra secrets.
Persistence & Privilege
Skill is not always-enabled and does not request system-wide persistence or permissions. It does mention an API-style operation (write_note) in a descriptive way but does not attempt to modify other skills or agent config.
How to Use
- Make sure OpenClaw is installed (local or Docker)
- Run the install command in chat:
/install memory-notes - After installation, invoke the skill by name or use
/memory-notes - Provide required inputs per the skill's parameter spec and get structured output
