Audit an OpenClaw agent's memory for staleness, redundancy, dark records, and contradictions. Use when a user asks to check memory health, clean up old memor...
Usage Guidance
This skill appears to do what its name says: it reads your memory (.md) files, scores them, and reports candidates for archiving/merging. Before running it, confirm the exact memory directory you want scanned. Be aware the script will read the full contents of any markdown files under that directory (so it will surface any sensitive text stored there). DARK detection requires the qmd CLI — if you don't have it the tool will skip that check. The script as bundled only reports issues; any file moves or edits are performed by the agent after you confirm — review the list of files the agent plans to change before approving. Finally, SKILL.md mentions appending a summary to memory when 'memory writes' are enabled, but the bundled script does not perform that append itself — if you enable agent memory writes, verify what the agent will append and consider running the tool with --json or in a sandbox first.
Capability Assessment
Purpose & Capability
Name/description match the actual behavior: the skill scans .md memory files, scores age, redundancy, dark records (via qmd), and contradictions. The only required binary is python3, which is appropriate and proportionate.
Instruction Scope
SKILL.md stays mostly within scope (asks for memory directory, runs the included Python script, explains qmd usage, and requires confirmation before changes). Two minor mismatches: SKILL.md documents append-only 'memory writes' when the user opts in, but the included script only reports and does not perform appends or moves; and the SKILL.md lists cleanup actions (archive/merge) which are described as agent-driven — those file-modifying steps would be performed outside the report script, so installing this skill grants the agent the ability to propose and (with confirmation) perform filesystem operations. Reading all .md files in the specified directory is required for the task but does expose all memory contents to the agent/report.
Install Mechanism
Instruction-only install (script bundled); no downloads or external install steps. Low risk from install mechanism.
Credentials
No environment variables, credentials, or config paths are requested. The skill optionally invokes the qmd CLI if available, which is consistent with DARK detection behavior.
Persistence & Privilege
always is false and the skill is user-invocable; it does not request persistent platform privileges. The SKILL.md encourages user confirmation before file moves. Note that actual cleanup (moving/archiving) is an agent action outside the script and therefore depends on agent permissions and user consent.
How to Use
- Make sure OpenClaw is installed (local or Docker)
- Run the install command in chat:
/install willow-memory-health - After installation, invoke the skill by name or use
/willow-memory-health - Provide required inputs per the skill's parameter spec and get structured output
