Description

Get the machine's current public IP address by calling `curl ifconfig.me`. Use when the user asks for their IP address, public IP, external IP, or explicitly...

README (SKILL.md)

Get My IP

Use this skill when the user wants the current machine's IP address as seen from the public internet.

This skill uses:

curl -fsSL ifconfig.me

Outcome

Return the current public IP address from ifconfig.me.

Keep the answer concise. By default, return only the IP unless the user asks for more detail.

Workflow

1. Clarify the meaning only when needed

ifconfig.me returns the public outbound IP, not the local LAN IP.

If the user says "local IP" but also asks to use ifconfig.me, follow the request and, when useful, note that the result is the public IP.

2. Run the command

Use:

curl -fsSL ifconfig.me

Do not replace it with another service unless the user asks for a fallback.

3. Return the result

If successful:

return the IP directly

If it fails:

say the public IP could not be retrieved
include the brief reason when available, such as missing curl, network failure, or service unavailability

Scope Boundaries

This skill is only for retrieving the public IP via ifconfig.me.

It is not for:

finding the local LAN IP
diagnosing network routing issues
checking multiple interfaces
performing geolocation lookups

Usage Guidance

This skill does exactly what it says: it makes an outbound request to ifconfig.me to learn your public IP. That's expected behavior but also means a third-party server will see and may log your IP (and other request metadata). If you have privacy or policy concerns, don't install or ask for an alternative (for example: use a different public-IP service, supply your own endpoint, or run local commands to get LAN IPs). Also ensure curl is available on the agent environment; if the network blocks external requests the skill will fail. Overall low-risk and coherent for its stated purpose.

Capability Analysis

Type: OpenClaw Skill Name: get-my-ip Version: 0.1.0 The skill is a straightforward utility designed to retrieve the machine's public IP address using the legitimate 'ifconfig.me' service via a standard curl command. The instructions in SKILL.md are clear, limited in scope, and contain no indicators of malicious intent, data exfiltration, or security vulnerabilities.

Capability Assessment

✓ Purpose & Capability

Name/description say 'get public IP via ifconfig.me' and the only runtime requirement is curl. Nothing requested (no env vars, no extra binaries) is unrelated to that purpose.

ℹ Instruction Scope

SKILL.md strictly instructs running 'curl -fsSL ifconfig.me' and returning the result; scope boundaries are explicitly defined. Note: the action involves an outbound request to a third-party service (ifconfig.me), which inherently shares your public IP with that service—this is expected for the stated purpose but is a privacy consideration.

✓ Install Mechanism

Instruction-only skill with no install spec and no code files, so nothing is written to disk or downloaded during install.

✓ Credentials

No environment variables, credentials, or config paths are requested. The lack of secrets is proportionate to the simple network query performed.

✓ Persistence & Privilege

always:false and user-invocable, with normal autonomous invocation allowed. The skill does not request persistent system changes or modify other skills' configs.

How to Use

Make sure OpenClaw is installed (local or Docker)
Run the install command in chat: /install get-my-ip
After installation, invoke the skill by name or use /get-my-ip
Provide required inputs per the skill's parameter spec and get structured output
