Description
Generate ATS-optimized resumes and tailored cover letters matched to specific job descriptions. Use when creating resumes, CVs, cover letters, or career documents.
Usage Guidance
This skill appears coherent for generating resumes and cover letters. Before using it: 1) Be prepared to provide personal information (work history, contact info); only supply what is necessary. 2) The skill may be asked to read local files you point it to — avoid passing paths to unrelated sensitive files (home directory, SSH keys, password files). 3) The SKILL.md allows shell/file tools (Bash, Grep, Glob) — monitor what the agent does when run and review generated files in output/career-docs/ before sharing. 4) If you prefer tighter limits, paste job and profile text instead of passing file paths, or run the skill in a sandboxed environment.
Capability Analysis
Type: OpenClaw Skill
Name: resume-and-cover-letter
Version: 1.0.0
The skill is classified as suspicious due to the inclusion of `Bash` in `allowed-tools` and the generation of LaTeX files (`.tex`). While the skill's instructions are benign and focused on resume generation, the `Bash` tool grants powerful arbitrary command execution capabilities, and LaTeX files can be exploited for Remote Code Execution (RCE) via `\write18` if user-provided input is not properly sanitized before being embedded and compiled. These capabilities, without explicit sanitization instructions, create significant vulnerabilities for shell injection or LaTeX RCE, making the skill susceptible to exploitation despite lacking explicit malicious intent in its instructions.
Capability Assessment
Purpose & Capability
Name/description match the instructions: the SKILL.md describes parsing job descriptions, asking for a candidate profile, matching keywords, and producing resume and cover-letter files. No unrelated environment variables, binaries, or installs are requested.
Instruction Scope
Instructions are narrowly focused on parsing job descriptions, collecting candidate info, producing ATS-optimized text, and saving outputs to output/career-docs/. It will ask interactively for personal data if no profile is provided (expected). One minor note: the SKILL.md header allows broad tools (Read, Write, Edit, Grep, Glob, Bash) which enable filesystem and shell access. The document itself does not instruct reading system configuration or secrets, but those tooling permissions could be used to access arbitrary local files if the agent is given file paths or unchecked discretion.
Install Mechanism
Instruction-only skill with no install spec and no code files — nothing is downloaded or written during install.
Credentials
No environment variables, credentials, or config paths are requested. The data the skill needs (job description and candidate profile) is appropriate and proportional to the stated purpose.
Persistence & Privilege
always:false (not force-included). The skill can be invoked autonomously by the agent (default) but that is normal for skills; there is no persistent installation, no modifications to other skills or system-wide configs requested.
How to Use
- Make sure OpenClaw is installed (local or Docker)
- Run the install command in chat:
/install resume-and-cover-letter - After installation, invoke the skill by name or use
/resume-and-cover-letter - Provide required inputs per the skill's parameter spec and get structured output
