/install mobilerun-skill
Description
Control real Android phones through the Mobilerun API. Supports tapping, swiping, typing, taking screenshots, reading the UI accessibility tree, and managing...
Usage Guidance
This skill appears internally consistent with its purpose. Before installing, note: (1) the MOBILERUN_API_KEY grants programmatic control of devices on the associated Mobilerun account — treat it like a password and do not paste it into chat; (2) screenshots and the UI tree can contain sensitive personal data, and the skill's docs explicitly warn not to transmit them beyond the user — follow that guidance; (3) enabling Android Accessibility and installing the Portal APK are required for controlling a personal phone and are powerful permissions — only install the Portal APK from the official source (the doc points to a GitHub releases page) and ensure you trust the Mobilerun service; and (4) using cloud/device tasks may incur billing/credits per the subscription doc. If you want extra caution, only allow user-invoked runs (avoid persistent automation) and avoid sending sensitive inputs (passwords, 2FA codes) through screenshots or the UI tree.
Capability Analysis
Type: OpenClaw Skill
Name: mobilerun-skill
Version: 1.0.0
The skill provides extensive remote control over Android devices, including screen capture, UI inspection, and input injection via the Mobilerun API. It includes high-risk capabilities such as installing applications from a custom 'app library' rather than the official Play Store (phone-api.md) and requires users to side-load an APK with broad Accessibility permissions (setup.md). While these features are aligned with the stated purpose of mobile automation and the instructions include privacy safeguards, the inherent risks of remote device access and side-loading qualify it as suspicious under the provided criteria.
Capability Assessment
Purpose & Capability
Name/description match the declared requirement (single API key MOBILERUN_API_KEY) and the runtime instructions focus on the Mobilerun REST API for screenshots, UI tree, taps, swipes, typing, and task submission. There are no unrelated environment variables, binaries, or config paths requested.
Instruction Scope
SKILL.md and the included docs specify exactly which API endpoints to call, how to probe device state, and how to behave (observe-act loop). It explicitly warns about not sharing screenshots or the API key and limits which device fields to surface to users. The only broader instructions relate to installing the Portal APK and enabling Accessibility on the phone — these are necessary for the described functionality, and the docs explain them.
Install Mechanism
This is instruction-only with no install spec and no code files. That is the lowest-risk install model; nothing is downloaded or written by the skill itself.
Credentials
The skill requires a single credential (MOBILERUN_API_KEY) which is directly relevant and declared as the primary credential. No other secrets, unrelated tokens, or config paths are requested.
Persistence & Privilege
The skill is not forced always-on (always:false), requests no system-wide changes, and does not modify other skills' configurations. It can be invoked autonomously by the agent (default), which is normal for skills; this autonomy is not combined with other concerning factors.
How to Use
- Make sure OpenClaw is installed (local or Docker)
- Run the install command in chat:
/install mobilerun-skill - After installation, invoke the skill by name or use
/mobilerun-skill - Provide required inputs per the skill's parameter spec and get structured output
