Description
Lightweight PIV workflow - discovery-driven feature builder. No PRD needed. Asks quick questions, generates PRP, executes with validation loop. For small-to-medium features when you want to skip PRD ceremony.
Usage Guidance
This skill appears coherent for orchestrating small feature work: it will read the codebase, create PRP files under PROJECT_PATH/PRPs, run validation commands (linters, tests), and can commit changes using git. Before installing or running it, consider: 1) Run it on a non-sensitive or backed-up repository first — it writes files and may commit changes. 2) Review generated PRP/implementation outputs before allowing executor sub-agents to run or commit. 3) Confirm the platform's sessions_spawn sub-agents are trusted, since those sub-agents will get file-system access to your project. 4) Note the minor inconsistency in Step 2 about whether to spawn a sub-agent — that could lead to unexpected behavior; ask the publisher for clarification. 5) Because the instructions allow web searches and external CLI tools if available, restrict execution to an environment with controlled network access if you are concerned about external I/O. If you want a stricter assessment, provide the actual project you plan to run it against or the platform policy for sessions_spawn and sub-agent capabilities — that would change the confidence level.
Capability Analysis
Type: OpenClaw Skill
Name: mini-piv
Version: 1.1.0
The skill is classified as suspicious due to its broad system access capabilities, which, while plausibly needed for its stated purpose as a feature builder, inherently carry a higher risk. It instructs the agent and sub-agents to execute various shell commands (`git`, `ls`, `tree`, build/test/lint commands), perform extensive file system operations (read, write, modify project files), and utilize network access for web searches and the `gh` CLI for 'GitHub code search, repo exploration' (in `references/codebase-analysis.md`, `references/execute-prp.md`, `references/generate-prp.md`). While no clear evidence of intentional malicious behavior (e.g., data exfiltration to unauthorized endpoints, persistence, or explicit harmful prompt injection) was found, these powerful capabilities could be misused. Additionally, the owner/repo name 'SmokeAlot420' (in `_meta.json` and `SKILL.md`) is a minor non-technical flag.
Capability Assessment
Purpose & Capability
Name/description (Mini PIV lightweight feature builder) align with the instructions and minimal requirements: it needs git for commits and manipulates the project tree and PRP files under PROJECT_PATH. No unrelated env vars, binaries, or config paths are requested.
Instruction Scope
Instructions legitimately cover discovery, PRP generation, execution, validation, debugging and committing code. They instruct creating/writing files under PROJECT_PATH/PRPs, running linters/tests, and using sessions_spawn to create sub-agents. Two concerns: 1) a minor internal inconsistency in Step 2 (the block both says to spawn a sub-agent and then says 'Do BOTH steps yourself. DO NOT spawn sub-agents.'), and 2) the instructions give broad discretion to use research tools (web search, gh CLI, shell) which could cause external network activity depending on platform tooling. These are scope/clarity issues rather than evidence of malicious intent.
Install Mechanism
Instruction-only skill with no install spec and no code files to execute on install. This is low-risk: nothing is downloaded or written to disk by an installer.
Credentials
The skill requires no environment variables or credentials. Requested privileges are limited to using git and reading/writing files in the project path supplied at runtime, which is proportional to its stated purpose.
Persistence & Privilege
Flags: always=false (not force-installed) and disable-model-invocation=true (reduces autonomous model invocation). The skill does not request persistent system-level changes or modify other skills. It will create PRP files and may commit changes to the repository when run — expected for this type of orchestrator.
How to Use
- Make sure OpenClaw is installed (local or Docker)
- Run the install command in chat:
/install mini-piv - After installation, invoke the skill by name or use
/mini-piv - Provide required inputs per the skill's parameter spec and get structured output
