Usage Guidance
This skill looks coherent and low-risk: it needs no installs or credentials and will work by analyzing your code to suggest names. Before installing/using it, consider: (1) run it only in the project folder you intend it to analyze (avoid granting it access to unrelated directories with secrets), (2) watch for any prompts asking you to paste credentials or point it at external URLs — the SKILL.md doesn’t require that, and (3) if you plan to let the agent run autonomously, restrict its workspace to avoid accidental scanning of sensitive files. If you want extra assurance, inspect the full SKILL.md for any later instructions that might call external services or request tokens.
Capability Analysis
Type: OpenClaw Skill
Name: naming-forge
Version: 1.0.0
The 'naming-forge' skill bundle appears benign. Its stated purpose is to assist with naming conventions in code, and the `SKILL.md` explicitly states 'Zero external dependencies. Zero API calls.' and `requires_api: false` in its metadata. While the 'Convention Scan' phase implies reading local codebase files, this is necessary for its stated function (analyzing naming patterns) and there are no instructions or indicators of intent to exfiltrate data, execute arbitrary commands, or perform any other malicious actions. The content is purely instructional and descriptive, without any prompt injection attempts to subvert the agent's behavior.
Capability Assessment
Purpose & Capability
The name and description (generate precise, consistent names for code artifacts) align with the SKILL.md workflow (semantic extraction, convention scan, candidate generation, recommendations). No unusual binaries, env vars, or credentials are requested.
Instruction Scope
The instructions repeatedly direct the agent to 'scan existing codebase' and 'scan for naming patterns' which is appropriate for a naming tool. However, the SKILL.md does not explicitly constrain *which* files or paths to scan (project root vs entire filesystem) or how to handle potentially sensitive files. The guidance is otherwise focused on analyzing code and conventions and does not request unrelated data or external endpoints.
Install Mechanism
No install spec and no code files — this is instruction-only, so nothing will be downloaded or written by an installer. Low risk from installation.
Credentials
The skill requests no environment variables, credentials, or config paths. That is proportional to its purpose of analyzing code and proposing names.
Persistence & Privilege
The skill is not marked always:true and does not request to persist or modify agent/system-wide settings. Autonomous invocation is allowed by platform default but is not combined with other concerning permissions here.
How to Use
- Make sure OpenClaw is installed (local or Docker)
- Run the install command in chat:
/install naming-forge - After installation, invoke the skill by name or use
/naming-forge - Provide required inputs per the skill's parameter spec and get structured output
