Usage Guidance
This skill appears to do what it says (generate LinkedIn posts) but has red flags you should consider before installing: (1) it contains a hardcoded SKILLPAY merchant key — by default payments will go to that embedded account; if you will be charged, verify who controls that merchant and prefer setting your own SKILLPAY_MERCHANT_KEY or using test mode. (2) The code spawns the local 'openclaw' CLI and can call a local gateway with an Authorization token — do not provide a production OPENCLAW_GATEWAY_TOKEN unless you trust the author and have audited the code. (3) package-lock contains non-standard registry mirrors (mirrors.tencentyun.com) — review dependencies and consider installing in an isolated/sandboxed environment. (4) There is a formatting/possible bug around the spawn call in index.js; ask the author to confirm/clean the code and publish a repository/homepage you can inspect. If you don't trust the merchant or author, do not install on systems with sensitive tokens or real billing credentials; request the author remove embedded secrets and document how payments are handled, or run the skill locally with test mode and your own merchant key.
Capability Analysis
Type: OpenClaw Skill Name: linkedin-post-generator Version: 1.0.7 The skill is a LinkedIn post generator that interfaces with the OpenClaw 'sloan' agent and the 'skillpay.me' payment gateway. Analysis of index.js and SKILL.md shows the code is aligned with its stated purpose, with no evidence of data exfiltration, malicious execution, or harmful prompt injection. While index.js contains a syntax error in the callSloanAgent function (a stray backtick and misplaced options object) and includes a hardcoded merchant secret key as a default, these appear to be unintentional development flaws rather than intentional malware.
Capability Assessment
Purpose & Capability
Name/description, CLI usage and network calls (to a payment API and local OpenClaw gateway) are consistent with a pay-per-use post generator. However the code embeds a hardcoded merchant key (CONFIG.merchant_key) that will be used by default for billing — this is unexpected and not justified by the skill's description. The package-lock also references a non-standard mirror (mirrors.tencentyun.com), which is unusual though possibly benign.
Instruction Scope
SKILL.md instructs only normal CLI usage and documents optional SKILLPAY_MERCHANT_KEY and OPENCLAW_GATEWAY_TOKEN. The runtime code follows these instructions (calls an agent via the 'openclaw' CLI or local HTTP gateway). It does not read unrelated system files or request unrelated credentials. A practical concern: the skill will spawn a local process ('openclaw'), which executes commands on the host — expected for invoking a local agent but worth noting. Also the index.js contains a suspicious-looking snippet/formatting around the spawn call (a stray backtick/argument placement) that may indicate a bug or mistranscription; that could cause unexpected behavior.
Install Mechanism
There is no install script/remote download; this is an instruction-and-code skill bundled with its source. No arbitrary remote downloads or extract operations are present in the manifest. The only oddity is the package-lock entries resolved from mirrors.tencentyun.com rather than the default registry, which is noteworthy but not necessarily malicious.
Credentials
The registry metadata declares no required env vars, while SKILL.md and the code reference two optional env vars: SKILLPAY_MERCHANT_KEY and OPENCLAW_GATEWAY_TOKEN — these are plausible. The concern is the hardcoded merchant key (sk_91fff75ae...) in CONFIG.merchant_key: by default payments will be routed to that embedded key/merchant, which is unexpected and raises privacy/monetary concerns. OPENCLAW_GATEWAY_TOKEN (if provided) is used as an Authorization header to localhost — supplying a production token to this skill could leak or misuse that token.
Persistence & Privilege
The skill does not request persistent or elevated platform privileges (always:false). It does spawn the local 'openclaw' CLI and may call a local gateway endpoint, which is within the scope of invoking a local agent. It does not modify other skill configurations or claim system-level modifications.
How to Use
  1. Make sure OpenClaw is installed (local or Docker)
  2. Run the install command in chat: /install linkedin-post-generator
  3. After installation, invoke the skill by name or use /linkedin-post-generator
  4. Provide required inputs per the skill's parameter spec and get structured output
