Description
Transcribe audio files to text using Telnyx Speech-to-Text API. Use when you need to convert audio recordings, voice messages, or spoken content to text.
Usage Guidance
This skill is coherent with its stated purpose, but review these practical points before installing: (1) the script will send the audio file and your TELNYX_API_KEY to Telnyx's API — only use it with audio you are allowed to transmit and with a key you trust. (2) The source is 'unknown' — consider rotating the API key after first use and run the script in an isolated environment if you have strong privacy concerns. (3) The implementation manually constructs multipart payloads (works but is simple); for production use you may prefer an official SDK. (4) If you need auditability or to avoid transmitting sensitive audio, do not use this skill or sanitize data before sending.
Capability Analysis
Type: OpenClaw Skill
Name: telnyx-stt
Version: 1.0.1
The skill is classified as suspicious due to an arbitrary file read vulnerability in `scripts/telnyx-stt.py`. The script takes an `audio_path` as input and reads its content without validation, then sends it to the legitimate Telnyx API. While the script's intent is to process audio, an attacker could exploit this by providing a path to a sensitive file (e.g., `/etc/passwd`, `~/.ssh/id_rsa`), causing its contents to be read and transmitted to `https://api.telnyx.com`. This constitutes a significant data exposure risk, even if not directly exfiltrated to an attacker-controlled server, but lacks clear evidence of intentional malicious behavior by the skill's author.
Capability Assessment
Purpose & Capability
Name/description (Telnyx STT) match the code and SKILL.md. The only required credential is TELNYX_API_KEY and the only network endpoint contacted is https://api.telnyx.com/v2/ai/audio/transcriptions — all are appropriate for a Telnyx STT wrapper.
Instruction Scope
SKILL.md instructs the agent to run the included Python script on a given audio file. The script reads only the specified audio file and the TELNYX_API_KEY environment variable and posts them to Telnyx; it does not read other files, system paths, or extra environment variables.
Install Mechanism
No install spec is provided (instruction-only with a small script). Nothing is downloaded or extracted at install time, minimizing installation risk.
Credentials
Only TELNYX_API_KEY is required and declared as the primary credential. That is proportionate to making authenticated API calls to Telnyx. No unrelated credentials or excessive env access are requested.
Persistence & Privilege
The skill is not always-enabled and does not request special persistent or system-level privileges. It does not modify other skills or system configurations.
How to Use
- Make sure OpenClaw is installed (local or Docker)
- Run the install command in chat:
/install telnyx-stt - After installation, invoke the skill by name or use
/telnyx-stt - Provide required inputs per the skill's parameter spec and get structured output
