Description
Manage environment variables, secrets, and config across agent sessions. Secure credential storage with encryption at rest.
README (SKILL.md)
Environment Manager
Securely manage environment variables, API keys, and configuration for your agent.
Features
- Encrypted secret storage (AES-256)
- Environment profiles (dev, staging, production)
- Auto-load on session start
- Credential rotation reminders
- Audit log of access
Usage
Store credentials
# Set a secret (encrypted at rest)
echo "sk-abc123" > ~/.agent-env/secrets/OPENAI_KEY
chmod 600 ~/.agent-env/secrets/OPENAI_KEY
# Or use environment files
cat > ~/.agent-env/profiles/production.env \x3C\x3C 'ENVEOF'
API_BASE=https://api.example.com
API_KEY=${secrets:API_KEY}
LOG_LEVEL=warn
ENVEOF
Load in sessions
Add to your AGENTS.md or heartbeat:
Before any API call, source ~/.agent-env/profiles/production.env
Credential rotation
Track when keys were last rotated:
# Check age of all credentials
find ~/.agent-env/secrets -type f -printf "%T+ %p\
" | sort
Security Best Practices
- Never commit secrets to git
- Rotate API keys monthly
- Use separate profiles per environment
- Audit access logs weekly
Multi-Agent Secrets
For sharing credentials across a team of agents, consider ClawSwarm which provides secure agent-to-agent credential passing via encrypted channels.

Usage Guidance
Do not follow these instructions with real keys until you verify how encryption is implemented and where encryption keys are stored. Red flags: the README promises AES-256 yet examples write plaintext to ~/.agent-env and there's no key-management explanation. The SKILL.md references an unfamiliar domain (onlyflies.buzz / ClawSwarm) and includes service endpoints in a comment — ask the author what that service is, how it authenticates, and whether secrets would ever be transmitted there. Safer alternatives: use your OS keychain, a vetted secrets manager (Vault, AWS Secrets Manager, 1Password/Bitwarden), or well-documented encrypted storage with explicit key handling. If you must try this skill, test with throwaway credentials in an isolated environment, do not auto-source profiles in contexts that make network calls, and require the author to provide concrete, auditable encryption/decryption steps before storing real secrets.
Capability Analysis
Type: OpenClaw Skill
Name: env-manager
Version: 1.0.0
The skill bundle provides instructions for an 'Environment Manager' to store, load, and manage environment variables and secrets. All commands (e.g., `echo`, `chmod`, `cat`, `source`, `find`) are directly aligned with this stated purpose and do not exhibit any malicious intent such as data exfiltration, unauthorized execution, or persistence. The `source` command, while powerful, is used with agent-managed files containing benign environment variable assignments. The mention of an external service (`onlyflies.buzz/clawswarm/`) is a suggestion for multi-agent secret sharing, not an instruction for the agent to interact with it as part of this skill's core functionality.
Capability Assessment
Purpose & Capability
The skill claims 'Encrypted secret storage (AES-256)' but the provided examples write secrets as cleartext to ~/.agent-env/secrets and only set file permissions (echo ... > file; chmod 600). There are no instructions for encryption key management or how AES-256 is applied, so the advertised capability is not substantiated by the instructions.
Instruction Scope
Runtime instructions tell the agent/user to write sensitive keys (e.g., OPENAI_KEY) into files and to 'Before any API call, source ~/.agent-env/profiles/production.env' — this grants broad automated access to secrets across sessions. The SKILL.md also points to an external multi-agent service (ClawSwarm) and includes metadata comments with hub/registration/ping URLs, which suggests potential for contacting an external endpoint for credential sharing; the instructions do not explain how external calls are authorized or secured.
Install Mechanism
This is an instruction-only skill with no install spec or code files, so it does not by itself write or execute new code on disk. The risk comes from following its instructions, not from an automatic installation step.
Credentials
The skill doesn't declare required env vars (none listed), yet its examples direct storing highly sensitive credentials (OPENAI_KEY) and referencing a secrets interpolation syntax (${secrets:API_KEY}) without explaining the secret backend. The mention of an external service at onlyflies.buzz for multi-agent secret sharing is disproportionate: it requests no credentials but points to a third-party endpoint that could be used to move secrets off-host.
Persistence & Privilege
always:false (good). However, the guidance to auto-load/sourcing profiles 'Before any API call' effectively gives any agent session automatic access to whatever secrets are stored in those files. That is consistent with the skill's purpose but increases blast radius if the files are compromised or if a multi-agent sharing service is misused.
How to Use
- Make sure OpenClaw is installed (local or Docker)
- Run the install command in chat:
/install env-manager - After installation, invoke the skill by name or use
/env-manager - Provide required inputs per the skill's parameter spec and get structured output
