Description
Generate a daily morning briefing (weather, calendar, news, reminders) using the local `briefing` CLI. No API tokens consumed for data gathering. Use when the user asks for a morning briefing, daily summary, schedule overview, or wants automated daily briefings.
Usage Guidance
This skill appears coherent: it expects a local 'briefing' CLI that reads local calendar/reminders, RSS, and weather. Before installing, verify the npm package author and inspect the package (npm view / fetch the tarball and review contents) to ensure it doesn't exfiltrate data. Confirm how 'briefing activate <license-key>' stores the key (file, keychain) if you need to provide one. Grant macOS calendar/reminders permissions only if you trust the CLI. If you need stronger assurance, ask the publisher for a homepage/repository or request the package source to review.
Capability Analysis
Type: OpenClaw Skill
Name: morning-briefing-pro
Version: 1.0.2
The skill bundle is classified as benign. The `SKILL.md` and `_meta.json` files describe a local morning briefing tool (`briefing` CLI) and provide instructions for its installation via npm, usage, configuration, and scheduling using OpenClaw's cron and heartbeat features. There is no evidence of malicious intent, data exfiltration, unauthorized remote execution, or prompt injection designed to subvert the agent's purpose. All commands and instructions are consistent with the stated goal of generating a local briefing.
Capability Assessment
Purpose & Capability
Name/description (local morning briefing) matches the runtime instructions which call a local 'briefing' CLI and reference calendar, reminders, weather, and RSS news — all plausible local sources for a morning briefing.
Instruction Scope
SKILL.md instructs only to run the local 'briefing' binary and use its flags; it references the config path (~/.config/morning-briefing/config.json), macOS calendar/reminders permission prompts, cron scheduling, and a license activation step. Reading local calendar/reminders and the config file is expected for this purpose, but the license activation step could involve entering/storing a secret not declared in requires.env.
Install Mechanism
Install is an npm package (@openclaw-tools/morning-briefing) that creates the 'briefing' binary. An npm package install is a reasonable mechanism here, but it carries the usual supply-chain risk — package provenance and contents should be checked before installing.
Credentials
The skill declares no environment variables or credentials, which is consistent with a local-CLI-based briefing. However, the SKILL.md's 'briefing activate <license-key>' suggests optional license keys/secret entry that are not declared; users should confirm how/where such keys are stored.
Persistence & Privilege
always is false and the skill doesn't request system-wide config changes. It suggests adding a cron job via platform tooling, which is appropriate for scheduled briefings and within scope.
How to Use
- Make sure OpenClaw is installed (local or Docker)
- Run the install command in chat:
/install morning-briefing-pro - After installation, invoke the skill by name or use
/morning-briefing-pro - Provide required inputs per the skill's parameter spec and get structured output
