Description
Teaches ADA how to perform file downloads using the browser tool.
README (SKILL.md)
Browser Download Skill
This skill enables ADA to perform file downloads from any webpage using the browser tool.
Prerequisites
openclawCLI must be installed and gateway must be running.relayPortmust be configured correctly inopenclaw.json(Default: 18792).
How to download
To download a file from a website, follow these steps:
- Find the Download Link/Button: Use
browser snapshotorbrowser evaluateto find thereforselectorfor the download button. - Execute Download Action: Use the following CLI command structure:
openclaw browser --action download --targetId "\x3CTAB_ID>" --ref "\x3CREF_ID>" --path "/mnt/storage/ada_projects/downloads/\x3CFILENAME>"
Alternative: JavaScript Click
If the download button is inside a canvas or complex element, you can trigger it via evaluation:
() => {
const btn = document.querySelector('button[aria-label="Download"]');
if (btn) btn.click();
return 'clicked';
}
Storage Directory
Always save downloaded files to:
/mnt/storage/ada_projects/downloads/
Usage Guidance
This skill appears to do what it says: it teaches the agent to download files using the OpenClaw browser tool and requests no secrets. Before installing, consider: (1) downloads can retrieve arbitrary files — only allow this skill if you trust the agent's autonomy or restrict when it can run; (2) the skill uses a hard-coded storage directory (/mnt/storage/ada_projects/downloads/) — confirm that location is appropriate and sandboxed, and change it if needed; (3) scanned files should be validated/antivirus-checked after download; and (4) ensure your OpenClaw gateway (openclaw.json relayPort) is correctly configured and only accessible to trusted networks. No scan warnings were present because the skill is instruction-only.
Capability Analysis
Type: OpenClaw Skill
Name: browser-download
Version: 1.0.0
The browser-download skill provides standard instructions for an AI agent to use the openclaw CLI to perform file downloads. It specifies a legitimate storage path (/mnt/storage/ada_projects/downloads/) and uses standard browser automation techniques without any evidence of malicious intent, data exfiltration, or prompt injection.
Capability Assessment
Purpose & Capability
Name/description (browser download) aligns with required binary (openclaw) and the instructions (openclaw browser commands and DOM evaluation). No unrelated credentials, binaries, or install steps are requested.
Instruction Scope
SKILL.md stays within the download use case (finding selectors, using browser actions, clicking via evaluated JS). It hard-codes a storage path (/mnt/storage/ada_projects/downloads/) and references that relayPort must be configured in openclaw.json. Hard-coded storage and the ability to click arbitrary page elements mean the agent could download arbitrary content — expected for this skill but worth noting as an operational risk.
Install Mechanism
Instruction-only skill with no install spec or downloadable code. This minimizes install-time risk (nothing is written to disk by the skill itself).
Credentials
No environment variables or secrets are required; only the openclaw CLI and a running gateway are needed, which is proportional to the stated purpose. The skill mentions openclaw.json configuration but does not request access to unrelated credentials.
Persistence & Privilege
always is false and the skill does not request elevated or persistent platform privileges. It does not modify other skills or system-wide configs.
How to Use
- Make sure OpenClaw is installed (local or Docker)
- Run the install command in chat:
/install browser-download - After installation, invoke the skill by name or use
/browser-download - Provide required inputs per the skill's parameter spec and get structured output
