/install openclaw-skill-system-monitor
Description
Real-time system metrics monitoring (CPU, memory, disk, network, processes). Use when: user asks to check system status, cpu usage, memory usage, disk space,...
Usage Guidance
This skill appears to do what it says: run local monitoring commands and return system status. Before installing, (1) verify the host has the CLI utilities you need (or adjust the SKILL.md to match your platform), (2) inspect the included scripts yourself (they are short and readable), and (3) be aware that running the skill reveals local process lists and network port/connection info — avoid running it on multi-tenant/shared systems where that information is sensitive. If you want stricter control, limit the agent's ability to invoke the skill autonomously or run it manually as needed.
Capability Analysis
Type: OpenClaw Skill
Name: openclaw-skill-system-monitor
Version: 1.0.1
The system-monitor skill provides standard system performance monitoring capabilities using native CLI utilities (top, df, free, vm_stat, etc.) for macOS and Linux. The included script 'scripts/system-stats.sh' and the instructions in 'SKILL.md' are strictly aligned with the stated purpose of reporting CPU, memory, and disk metrics, with no evidence of data exfiltration, unauthorized access, or malicious intent.
Capability Assessment
Purpose & Capability
The skill's name/description match its implementation: it runs local CPU, memory, disk, network, and process commands and includes a short script. Slight mismatch: the registry 'required binaries' list includes core tools (top, df, vm_stat, free, lsof, uptime) but the SKILL.md also references additional utilities (mpstat, hostinfo, ifconfig, nettop, iostat, ip, ss, pstree, du, swapon, awk, sort, etc.). These are reasonable for a system-monitor tool but are not enumerated in the metadata.
Instruction Scope
Instructions direct the agent to execute local CLI diagnostics only (top, df, vm_stat, free, lsof, uptime, ps, ifconfig/ss/ip, etc.). There are no commands that send data to external endpoints and no access to unrelated filesystem paths or environment secrets. Note: the commands collect local process and network information (process lists, listening ports, connections), which can be sensitive on shared systems—this is consistent with the stated purpose but worth awareness.
Install Mechanism
No install spec (instruction-only) and a single small shell script are provided. Nothing is downloaded or extracted from external URLs. Risk from installation is low.
Credentials
The skill requires no environment variables or credentials. It does not request unrelated secrets or config paths.
Persistence & Privilege
The skill is not marked always:true, does not request persistent system changes, and does not modify other skills' configuration. The agent may invoke it autonomously by default (ordinary behavior) but it does not gain elevated persistent privileges.
How to Use
- Make sure OpenClaw is installed (local or Docker)
- Run the install command in chat:
/install openclaw-skill-system-monitor - After installation, invoke the skill by name or use
/openclaw-skill-system-monitor - Provide required inputs per the skill's parameter spec and get structured output
