Description
Deep rate limiting workflow—identifying actors and resources, choosing algorithms, distributed vs local limits, client UX (headers, retries), and abuse detec...
Usage Guidance
This skill is a low-risk, instruction-only design guide for rate limiting. It does not install software or ask for credentials. You should: (1) confirm the content aligns with your organization's policies and tech stack before applying changes, (2) test any recommended algorithms/configs in a staging environment, and (3) consider the author/source trustworthiness (no homepage provided) if you require provenance for compliance or internal policy reasons.
Capability Analysis
Type: OpenClaw Skill
Name: rate-limiting
Version: 1.0.0
The skill bundle contains only documentation and a structured workflow for designing rate-limiting systems. It provides architectural guidance across six stages (threat modeling, algorithms, distributed enforcement, etc.) and lacks any executable code, network calls, or malicious instructions in SKILL.md.
Capability Assessment
Purpose & Capability
Name and description match the SKILL.md content: a multi-stage rate-limiting design workflow. The skill requests no binaries, env vars, or config paths, which is appropriate for a guidance-only skill.
Instruction Scope
Runtime instructions are purely advisory (six-stage workflow, checklists, tips). They do not instruct the agent to read files, access secrets, contact external endpoints, or execute commands—staying within the stated purpose.
Install Mechanism
No install spec and no code files are present (instruction-only). That minimizes disk writes and execution risk and is appropriate for a documentation-style skill.
Credentials
The skill requests no environment variables, credentials, or config paths. Mentions of technologies (Redis, CDNs, headers) are contextual only and do not imply access to those systems.
Persistence & Privilege
always is false and the skill does not request elevated or persistent privileges. Autonomous model invocation is allowed by platform default but this skill's instruction-only nature limits what it can do.
How to Use
- Make sure OpenClaw is installed (local or Docker)
- Run the install command in chat:
/install rate-limiting - After installation, invoke the skill by name or use
/rate-limiting - Provide required inputs per the skill's parameter spec and get structured output
Version History
v1.0.0
- Initial release of the "rate-limiting" workflow skill.
- Guides users through a deep, 6-stage process: threat & fairness modeling, key/dimension selection, algorithm choice, distributed enforcement, client experience, and observability.
- Designed for protecting APIs, gateways, and multi-tenant SaaS workloads.
- Includes best practices, example policies, review checklists, and advice for handling common deviations.
