Description
Manage RSS feeds and entries on a Miniflux instance. Handles requests like "show my unread articles", "list my feeds", "rename this category", "unsubscribe f...
Usage Guidance
This skill appears to do what it says, but before installing: 1) verify the openclaw-miniflux-mcp binary source (check the GitHub Releases page, release checksums/signatures, or prefer cargo install), 2) create and use a Miniflux API key with only the needed privileges (or use read-only mode if you don't want writes), 3) store credentials in your local MCP server config (not in public/shared places), and 4) be aware that if you allow the agent to invoke skills autonomously it may perform Miniflux actions without an interactive prompt — enable autonomous use only if you trust the agent's behavior. If you want extra assurance, request the binary's source code or a signed release from the maintainer before downloading.
Capability Analysis
Type: OpenClaw Skill Name: openclaw-miniflux Version: 0.1.5 The skill bundle is classified as benign. The `SKILL.md` provides clear, transparent instructions for setting up and using a Miniflux RSS reader management tool. It instructs the user to download a prerequisite binary (`openclaw-miniflux-mcp`) from a legitimate GitHub Releases page or install via Cargo, and to configure necessary environment variables for authentication to a Miniflux instance. These actions, while involving external binary execution and credential handling, are directly aligned with the skill's stated purpose and are not indicative of malicious intent, data exfiltration, persistence, or prompt injection attempts. The inclusion of 'Guardrails' further supports a responsible design.
Capability Assessment
Purpose & Capability
The name/description (Miniflux RSS management) matches the instructions. The only external requirement is the openclaw-miniflux-mcp helper binary and Miniflux credentials/URL, which are directly relevant to operating a Miniflux instance.
Instruction Scope
SKILL.md limits actions to Miniflux operations (list feeds, read entries, create/modify feeds/categories, import/export OPML). It does not instruct reading unrelated files or exfiltrating data to unexpected endpoints. It directs the user to configure an MCP server entry containing MINIFLUX_URL and credentials; that is expected for connecting to Miniflux.
Install Mechanism
There is no automated install spec (lower risk). The instructions tell the user to download a binary from a GitHub Releases page or install via cargo. GitHub Releases is a reasonable source but the repo is a third‑party user repo (sinhong2011); users should verify release authenticity and prefer cargo install or verified releases if possible.
Credentials
The skill requires Miniflux credentials (API token or username/password) and the instance URL to function — these are proportionate. Registry metadata lists no required env vars, but SKILL.md correctly instructs embedding MINIFLUX_URL and credentials in the MCP server config. No unrelated secrets are requested.
Persistence & Privilege
The skill is not always-enabled and is user-invocable. It does not request persistent system-wide privileges or attempt to modify other skills. Adding the MCP server is a local configuration change the user performs; that is normal for MCP-based skills.
How to Use
  1. Make sure OpenClaw is installed (local or Docker)
  2. Run the install command in chat: /install openclaw-miniflux
  3. After installation, invoke the skill by name or use /openclaw-miniflux
  4. Provide required inputs per the skill's parameter spec and get structured output
