Description

Stream editor for filtering and transforming text using scripts. Use for find-and-replace, text manipulation, and batch file editing.

README (SKILL.md)

Stream Editor

Perform basic text transformations on input streams using scripting commands. Supports find-and-replace, deletion, insertion, and conditional operations.

Usage

sed-tool [options] \x3Cscript> [file...]

Common Commands

s/old/new/: Substitute text
/pattern/d: Delete matching lines
Np: Print line N
-i: Edit files in-place

Examples

# Find and replace
sed-tool 's/foo/bar/g' file.txt

# Edit in-place
sed-tool -i 's/old/new/g' config.ini

# Delete lines matching pattern
sed-tool '/debug/d' log.txt

Usage Guidance

This skill is suitable for simple text transformations. Before installing or using it, verify what `sed-tool` command will run, and be cautious with `-i` or deletion commands because they can alter files directly.

Capability Analysis

Type: OpenClaw Skill Name: sed-tool Version: 1.0.0 The sed-tool is a basic text manipulation utility implemented in Python (scripts/sed.py) that performs simple regex substitutions. While the documentation in SKILL.md claims support for advanced sed features like in-place editing and line deletion which are not actually implemented in the script, the code itself is harmless and lacks any indicators of malicious intent, data exfiltration, or command injection.

Capability Assessment

ℹ Purpose & Capability

The stated purpose is coherent for a sed-like text transformation tool, but the included Python script only supports a narrow stdin substitution workflow and does not implement the documented file, deletion, insertion, or in-place editing options.

ℹ Instruction Scope

The instructions include user-directed examples for in-place editing and deleting matching lines. These are normal sed capabilities, but they can permanently change local files if used carelessly.

ℹ Install Mechanism

There is no install spec and no required binary declaration, while the documentation references a `sed-tool` command. Users should confirm what executable is being invoked.

✓ Credentials

Local text transformation is proportionate to the skill's stated purpose. No network access, credentials, background services, or broad local indexing are shown.

✓ Persistence & Privilege

The artifacts show no persistence, privilege escalation, credential use, or background operation. File changes are only described as user-invoked editing commands.

How to Use

Make sure OpenClaw is installed (local or Docker)
Run the install command in chat: /install sed-tool
After installation, invoke the skill by name or use /sed-tool
Provide required inputs per the skill's parameter spec and get structured output
