Description
Solcast integration. Manage Organizations. Use when the user wants to interact with Solcast data.
Usage Guidance
This skill is an instruction-only integration that expects you to use the Membrane CLI to connect to Solcast. Before installing/running anything: 1) Verify the @membranehq/cli npm package and its GitHub repo/homepage (author, recent commits, stars, issues) to ensure you're installing the expected software. 2) Prefer npx for one-off runs if you don't want a global install. 3) Be prepared to complete an interactive OAuth-style login (browser or code flow) — you will not be asked to paste Solcast API keys into the agent. 4) Confirm the tenant/clientName values you should use (the SKILL.md is vague about tenant argument). 5) If you have low trust in Membrane, do not install the CLI or create connections; instead interact with Solcast through known, vetted tooling. Finally, note the registry metadata did not declare the required CLI binary — treat that as a metadata gap and verify manually before proceeding.
Capability Analysis
Type: OpenClaw Skill
Name: solcast
Version: 1.0.3
The skill provides instructions for an AI agent to integrate with Solcast solar data using the Membrane CLI. It requires the installation of the `@membranehq/cli` NPM package and uses the Membrane platform to handle authentication and API actions. While it relies on a third-party service and global package installation, the instructions in SKILL.md are transparent, aligned with the stated purpose, and do not exhibit signs of malicious intent, obfuscation, or unauthorized data exfiltration.
Capability Assessment
Purpose & Capability
The skill claims to integrate with Solcast and all runtime instructions use the Membrane CLI to create connections, discover and run actions — this is coherent with the stated purpose. Minor inconsistency: the registry lists no required binaries, yet the SKILL.md instructs installing the @membranehq/cli (npm). The skill legitimately needs the CLI to operate; the metadata should have declared that.
Instruction Scope
SKILL.md stays within scope: it instructs installing/using the Membrane CLI, logging in, creating a Solcast connection, listing/creating/running actions. It does not ask to read unrelated local files, access unrelated env vars, or exfiltrate data. It does require interactive authentication (browser or headless code flow), which is normal for this workflow.
Install Mechanism
The skill recommends installing @membranehq/cli via npm install -g (and sometimes npx). Installing a global npm package is a common but higher-risk install mechanism than an instruction-only flow; the package appears to be from a named organization and a repository/homepage are provided, but the registry itself contains no install spec. Recommend verifying the npm package (author, integrity) and considering npx instead of a global install if you prefer not to write a binary to disk.
Credentials
The skill declares no required environment variables or credentials and explicitly says Membrane handles auth server-side and you should not supply Solcast API keys locally. This is proportionate to its purpose. Note: SKILL.md uses a --tenant flag and agentType values without fully explaining tenant selection; the login command may require additional contextual parameters in practice.
Persistence & Privilege
The skill is user-invocable, not always-enabled, and allows normal autonomous invocation. It does not request persistent elevated privileges or attempt to modify other skills or global agent settings. Installing the CLI will add a binary to the system if you choose to install it, which is standard for a CLI-based integration.
