Description
Force agents to respond to automated messages by using `openclaw agent` instead of `openclaw message send`, ensuring tasks from scripts get agent replies.
Usage Guidance
This skill appears to do exactly what it says: it wraps the openclaw CLI to force an agent response and deliver it to chat. Before installing or running it: 1) Verify the OPENCLAW_PATH used points to your openclaw binary (or set OPENCLAW_PATH explicitly) — the bundled default is an author-specific path. 2) Review and, if desired, change the log path (~/agent_task.log) to a location with appropriate permissions to avoid exposing sensitive output. 3) Avoid including secrets or sensitive data in automated messages sent to agents (they will appear in agent logs and chat). 4) Test in a non-production environment so you can confirm session-key formatting and timeout behavior. Overall the package is coherent, but exercise normal caution when letting automated scripts trigger agent actions.
Capability Analysis
Type: OpenClaw Skill Name: self-prompt Version: 1.1.0 The skill bundle provides utility scripts and documentation to force OpenClaw agents to respond to automated messages. The `SKILL.md` contains no prompt injection attempts or malicious instructions. Both `send_agent_task.sh` and `send_agent_task.py` scripts correctly use the `openclaw` CLI tool to interact with the platform, without introducing shell injection vulnerabilities (Python uses `subprocess.run` with a list, Bash uses double quotes for arguments). Local logging to `~/agent_task.log` is present but does not constitute data exfiltration. There is no evidence of intentional harmful behavior such as data exfiltration, malicious execution, persistence, or obfuscation.
Capability Assessment
Purpose & Capability
The name/description match the included scripts and SKILL.md: both the bash and Python helpers call `openclaw agent` to force an agent turn and then use `openclaw message send` to deliver the response. Nothing requested or included (no env vars, no external URLs, no system-wide config access) is disproportionate to that purpose.
Instruction Scope
SKILL.md and the scripts remain within the stated scope (trigger agent turn, capture stdout, deliver back to chat). The scripts write an append-only log at ~/agent_task.log and require correct session-key formatting. They also cause the agent to run arbitrary prompts you supply — which is the point, but you should be aware that any secrets included in messages will be sent to the agent and appear in logs and chat.
Install Mechanism
No install spec is provided (instruction-only skill with bundled scripts). That is low-risk: nothing is downloaded or executed automatically on install beyond the provided scripts.
Credentials
The skill requests no credentials or environment variables. The only environment dependence is an override variable OPENCLAW_PATH; the default hardcoded path (/home/eliran/.nvm/current/bin/openclaw) is author-specific and may not exist on other systems — harmless but odd and worth adjusting to a generic default or requiring OPENCLAW_PATH to be set explicitly.
Persistence & Privilege
always is false and model invocation is allowed (normal). The skill only writes to its own log file in the user's home and does not modify other skills or system-wide agent settings.
How to Use
  1. Make sure OpenClaw is installed (local or Docker)
  2. Run the install command in chat: /install self-prompt
  3. After installation, invoke the skill by name or use /self-prompt
  4. Provide required inputs per the skill's parameter spec and get structured output
