Usage Guidance
This skill appears coherent and implements two expected pieces of functionality: note-formatting templates and a lightweight local CLI task manager. Before installing, review the included scripts (scripts/note.sh and scripts/script.sh) yourself — they are short shell scripts that create and write to ~/.local/share/note-taker (data.log and history.log). There are no network calls or requests for credentials, but you should: 1) confirm you're comfortable with the skill writing persistent files in your home directory or set NOTE_TAKER_DIR to a location you control; 2) inspect SKILL.md for any hidden/non-printing characters (scanner flagged unicode-control-chars); 3) run the scripts in a non-privileged account or sandbox first if you want extra safety; and 4) back up any important data before using the export/clear commands. Overall the package is low-risk and behaves as described.
Capability Analysis
Type: OpenClaw Skill
Name: note-taker
Version: 2.0.1
The note-taker skill bundle provides a simple command-line utility for task management and note-taking templates (Cornell, Zettelkasten, etc.). The scripts (scripts/script.sh and scripts/note.sh) handle local data storage in the user's home directory and generate markdown templates without any network activity, data exfiltration, or suspicious execution patterns. While some task management functions in script.sh are implemented as simple stubs that log actions rather than modifying the data file, the behavior is entirely local and consistent with the stated purpose.
Capability Assessment
Purpose & Capability
The name/description focus on note-taking (Cornell, Zettelkasten, mind maps, meeting/lecture notes) but the SKILL.md also exposes a simple CLI task manager (add/list/done/etc.). This dual role is coherent for a productivity tool but is a mild mismatch with the note-focused name — still reasonable and explainable.
Instruction Scope
Runtime instructions and included scripts only reference local storage paths, standard Unix utilities, and prompt templates for formatting notes. The scripts read/write only the per-skill data directory and do not attempt to read unrelated system files or transmit data externally.
Install Mechanism
There is no install spec; the skill is instruction + two shell scripts. No remote downloads, package installs, or archive extraction are present in the bundle.
Credentials
The skill declares no required environment variables or credentials. The scripts do respect NOTE_TAKER_DIR / XDG_DATA_HOME and $HOME and will create and write to ~/.local/share/note-taker (data.log and history.log). Writing local files is expected, but users should be aware of persistent data storage.
Persistence & Privilege
always:false and no privileged behaviors. The skill does not modify other skills or system-wide configs; it only creates and writes files within its own data directory.
How to Use
- Make sure OpenClaw is installed (local or Docker)
- Run the install command in chat:
/install note-taker - After installation, invoke the skill by name or use
/note-taker - Provide required inputs per the skill's parameter spec and get structured output
