/install skill-analyst
Description
Analyze and evaluate OpenClaw skills before installing or publishing. Compare against existing or ClawHub skills, check feature overlap, perform security rev...
Usage Guidance
This skill is instruction-only and appears internally consistent: it needs the clawhub CLI to search/inspect ClawHub and will read local SKILL.md files (e.g., ~/.openclaw/skills/) to compare installed skills — that is expected. Before using it, ensure you trust the clawhub binary you have installed (it performs network calls and inspects skill metadata). Be aware that reports include data pulled from local SKILL.md files; avoid running it in contexts with unrevealed sensitive information. If you want extra caution, run the workflow steps manually (clawhub search/inspect, reading local SKILL.md) or sandbox the clawhub CLI before granting it network or system access.
Capability Analysis
Type: OpenClaw Skill
Name: skill-analyst
Version: 1.1.0
The skill-analyst bundle is a utility designed to help users evaluate other OpenClaw skills by searching ClawHub and comparing them against installed skills. It uses standard CLI commands (clawhub search/inspect/list) and follows a transparent workflow to generate analysis reports. No malicious patterns, data exfiltration, or suspicious execution logic were identified in SKILL.md or _meta.json.
Capability Assessment
Purpose & Capability
Name and description match the runtime instructions: the SKILL.md explicitly guides using the clawhub CLI and local SKILL.md files to compare, vet, and produce reports. Requiring clawhub is appropriate for ClawHub-related analysis.
Instruction Scope
Instructions read local SKILL.md files (e.g., ~/.openclaw/skills/) and call clawhub commands — this is expected for a skill-comparison tool. The SKILL.md also enforces output formatting (tables, JSON response) which constrains agent behavior but is not harmful. No instructions instruct reading unrelated system files, exporting credentials, or sending data to unexpected endpoints.
Install Mechanism
No install spec and no code files — instruction-only skill, so nothing is written to disk by the skill itself. Lowest-risk install profile.
Credentials
The skill declares no required environment variables, credentials, or config paths. The only external dependency is the clawhub CLI (and optional skill-vetter) which is coherent with the purpose.
Persistence & Privilege
always is false and there is no behavior that writes to other skills' configs or requests persistent privileges. Autonomous invocation is allowed by default but is not combined with other red flags.
How to Use
- Make sure OpenClaw is installed (local or Docker)
- Run the install command in chat:
/install skill-analyst - After installation, invoke the skill by name or use
/skill-analyst - Provide required inputs per the skill's parameter spec and get structured output
Version History
v1.1.0
Removed scripts, pure instruction mode, eliminated child_process security flag
v1.0.3
Isolate child_process to helper module to pass static analysis
v1.0.2
Fix command injection: replace execSync with execFileSync to prevent shell injection via user input
v1.0.1
Initial release. Features: install scouting (overlap analysis, security check, go/no-go verdict), publish scouting (competitor comparison, uniqueness analysis, publish recommendation). Includes helper scripts for ClawHub search and inspect.
v1.0.0
Skill-analyst 1.0.0 — initial release
- Analyze OpenClaw skills before installation or publishing, with clear go/no-go recommendations.
- Compares target skills with installed or ClawHub skills to detect overlap and highlight unique features.
- Offers optional security review if `skill-vetter` is available.
- Provides structured analysis reports using standard templates for both install and publish workflows.
- Includes two CLI scripts for skill search and inspection, outputting JSON for easy integration.
