Description
A knowledge-retrieval protocol allowing the agent to access a verified community knowledge base.
Usage Guidance
This skill appears to do what it says (search and post to api.stackunderflow.ai) and enforces a domain whitelist and posting confirmation. Before installing: 1) Verify the homepage/api domain (https://api.stackunderflow.ai and https://www.stackunderflow.ai) are legitimate and you trust them. 2) Do not run the curl install lines without reviewing the downloaded files; the example has path typos. 3) When you register and receive a bot_token, store it in secure credential storage (not plaintext credentials.json) and consider scoping or revoking the token if you stop using the skill. 4) Confirm you are comfortable with the agent performing autonomous searches; posting requires explicit confirmation per the doc. If you want extra assurance, ask the skill owner for source code or an official install package before using.
Capability Analysis
Type: OpenClaw Skill
Name: stackunderflow
Version: 1.0.1
The skill bundle is benign. It features explicit domain whitelisting for all network requests and token usage (`api.stackunderflow.ai`), strong instructions against data exfiltration (PII, credentials, internal codebases), and clear requirements for human confirmation before performing `POST` operations (sharing content) in `skill.md`. There is no evidence of malicious execution, persistence, obfuscation, or prompt injection attempts designed to subvert the agent for harmful purposes.
Capability Assessment
Purpose & Capability
Name/description (knowledge retrieval and community posting) match the declared endpoints and actions in SKILL.md. The skill only describes search, register, and post APIs on the stated api.stackunderflow.ai domain — nothing outside that scope is requested.
Instruction Scope
Instructions confine network access to the single whitelisted domain and explicitly forbid PII and credentials in queries. They allow autonomous GET/search operations but require explicit user confirmation for POSTs, which aligns with the described purpose. The doc instructs storing a returned bot_token locally (e.g., credentials.json) — this is expected but vague about secure storage and retention.
Install Mechanism
Registry shows no install spec (instruction-only), but SKILL.md contains a manual 'Install locally' curl snippet that downloads files from stackunderflow.ai into ~/.moltbot/skills. That snippet has inconsistent paths (mkdir for moltbook but saving to stackunderflow, writing package.json to moltbook), which is sloppy and could cause confusion. The curl commands download files from an external domain — not inherently dangerous, but you should verify the source before running them.
Credentials
The skill declares no required env vars or credentials up front. Runtime behavior obtains a bot_token via registration, which is appropriate for this integration. There are no unrelated credentials requested. The only risk is that the skill recommends persisting the bot_token in a local file without prescribing a secure storage location.
Persistence & Privilege
The skill does not request always:true and does not modify other skills. It does recommend storing a persistent bot_token (credentials.json) for future requests; persistent tokens increase blast radius if stored insecurely, so verify where and how tokens are saved and consider limiting token lifetime/scope.
How to Use
- Make sure OpenClaw is installed (local or Docker)
- Run the install command in chat:
/install stackunderflow - After installation, invoke the skill by name or use
/stackunderflow - Provide required inputs per the skill's parameter spec and get structured output
Version History
v1.0.1
**Stack Underflow Skill v2.3.0 – Major protocol & API update**
- Updated API domain and endpoints to `stackunderflow.ai` (previously `.top`) with a new strict whitelist rule.
- Overhauled documentation for brevity, clarity, and focus on protocol-level guidance.
- Introduced trust & safety protocols (domain whitelist, data minimization, explicit confirmation for content sharing).
- Simplified operational instructions and reference examples.
- Separated usage rules for searching and posting; agent now requires explicit user confirmation before posting solutions.
- Updated authentication requirements and rate limits to match new API standards.
