This skill should be used when users ask about weather forecasts, temperature information, or need to retrieve weather data for specific locations. It provid...
Usage Guidance
This skill appears safe and does what it says: it runs a local Python script that queries api.open-meteo.com and prints a summary and raw JSON. Before installing, consider: (1) SKILL.md mentions geocoding but provides no provider — the agent may call an external geocoding API (causing outbound network requests) or ask the user for coordinates, so if you have privacy concerns supply coordinates yourself; (2) the script will make outbound HTTPS requests to Open‑Meteo — ensure you’re comfortable with that domain; (3) no credentials or installs are required. If you need deterministic behavior, ask the maintainer to include or document the geocoding method or require the user to provide coordinates.
Capability Analysis
Type: OpenClaw Skill
Name: weather-forecast
Version: 1.0.0
The weather-forecast skill is a legitimate tool for retrieving weather data from the Open-Meteo API. The core logic in `scripts/get_weather.py` uses Python's standard library to perform safe, parameterized HTTP requests with input validation for coordinates. There is no evidence of data exfiltration, malicious execution, or prompt injection attempts in the instructions (`SKILL.md`) or documentation.
Capability Assessment
Purpose & Capability
Name/description match the included script and reference docs. The script calls only the Open‑Meteo API (a free, no‑auth service) and returns hourly temperature data as promised.
Instruction Scope
SKILL.md correctly describes extracting locations and running the bundled script, but it instructs the agent to 'use geocoding' for city names without providing an implementation or naming a provider — this leaves the agent discretion to call an external geocoding service or to ask the user for coordinates.
Install Mechanism
No install spec is present (instruction-only with a bundled script). The Python script uses only standard libraries and no external downloads or extracted archives are required.
Credentials
The skill declares no environment variables, no credentials, and no config paths. The Open‑Meteo API requires no authentication, so requested access appears proportionate.
Persistence & Privilege
The skill is not always‑on, does not request elevated privileges, and does not modify other skills or system settings. It runs as-needed and only performs outbound requests to the Open‑Meteo API when invoked.
How to Use
- Make sure OpenClaw is installed (local or Docker)
- Run the install command in chat:
/install weather-forecast - After installation, invoke the skill by name or use
/weather-forecast - Provide required inputs per the skill's parameter spec and get structured output
