Usage Guidance
This skill is an advisory protocol (no code, no downloads, no credentials) and appears coherent with its stated purpose. Before using it, confirm what permissions your agent has: if the agent can read/write files or commit to a repository, the V.A.R. guidance will cause it to create or rename backups and potentially change files—ensure backups are stored where you want them and require explicit confirmation before any destructive action. For critical assets prefer an explicit VCS branch/commit workflow, external snapshots, or a dry-run step; ask the agent to show planned file operations and rollback anchors before executing them.
Capability Analysis
Type: OpenClaw Skill
Name: var-protocol
Version: 1.0.2
The var-protocol skill bundle is a set of process guidelines for an AI agent to implement versioning, archiving, and rollback procedures. It contains no executable code and focuses entirely on safe asset management and collaboration practices in files like SKILL.md and references/protocol.md.
Capability Assessment
Purpose & Capability
The name and description (V.A.R. = Versioning, Archiving, Rollback) align with the included guidance files. There are no unexpected binaries, env vars, or config paths requested that would be unrelated to performing disciplined backups/versioning.
Instruction Scope
SKILL.md and references/protocol.md are purely advisory: they instruct agents to identify baselines, create backups, use semantic naming, and prefer rollback-first. The guidance may direct an agent to read, copy, or rename user artifacts when applied — this is expected for a versioning/backup protocol but requires the agent to have file or VCS access at runtime. The skill itself does not include commands, network endpoints, or instructions to exfiltrate data.
Install Mechanism
No install spec or bundled code; instruction-only skills are lowest-risk from an install perspective and nothing is written to disk by the skill itself.
Credentials
No environment variables, credentials, or config paths are requested. The skill does not ask for unrelated secrets or external service tokens.
Persistence & Privilege
always is false and model invocation is not disabled (normal). The skill does not request persistent privileges or attempt to modify other skills or system-wide settings.
How to Use
- Make sure OpenClaw is installed (local or Docker)
- Run the install command in chat:
/install var-protocol - After installation, invoke the skill by name or use
/var-protocol - Provide required inputs per the skill's parameter spec and get structured output
