Description
Play audio/video locally on the host
README (SKILL.md)
Media Player
Play audio/video locally on the host using mpv. Supports local files and remote URLs.
Commands
# Play a local file or URL
media-player play "song.mp3"
media-player play "https://example.com/stream.m3u8"
# Pause playback
media-player pause
# Stop playback
media-player stop
Install
sudo dnf install mpv
Usage Guidance
This skill is mostly coherent: it wants mpv and shows how to install it via dnf. Before installing, note two practical points: (1) SKILL.md examples call a 'media-player' command that is not included in the package — confirm whether your agent runtime provides that wrapper or whether the agent will invoke mpv directly. (2) Installing mpv requires sudo privileges and will add a system package (dnf is for Fedora/RHEL-like systems). The skill doesn't ask for secrets or system config access, but it will read/play local files you ask it to and can fetch remote URLs. If you only need local playback and trust the source, it's reasonable to install; if you require guarantees about what commands the agent runs, ask the skill author or inspect the runtime integration that implements the media-player CLI first.
Capability Analysis
Type: OpenClaw Skill
Name: media-player
Version: 1.0.0
The skill bundle defines a 'media-player' skill that uses the `mpv` binary for playing audio/video. The `SKILL.md` file provides installation instructions via `dnf` and example commands. There is no evidence of data exfiltration, malicious execution, persistence, prompt injection against the agent, or obfuscation. The described behavior is clearly aligned with the stated purpose of a media player, and the dependencies/installation methods are standard.
Capability Assessment
Purpose & Capability
The name/description (play audio/video locally) matches the declared requirement (mpv) and the install spec (dnf install mpv). Requesting mpv is appropriate for a local media player.
Instruction Scope
SKILL.md shows usage examples that call a 'media-player' CLI (media-player play/pause/stop), but the skill bundle contains no code that implements a 'media-player' wrapper — only a dependency on mpv. The instructions do not explicitly show how the agent should invoke mpv itself. This is a documentation/integration gap (not evidence of malicious behavior) but it could cause surprising behavior unless the agent platform provides that wrapper or the skill author supplies it at runtime.
Install Mechanism
Install uses the distro package manager (dnf) to install mpv, a normal and expected mechanism. The install target is a standard OS package (mpv), not an arbitrary external archive or URL. Note: dnf is specific to Fedora/RHEL-family systems; on other OSes the install step will be inapplicable.
Credentials
The skill requests no environment variables, credentials, or config paths. That is proportionate for a local media player. Playing remote URLs implies network access but no secrets are required by the skill itself.
Persistence & Privilege
The skill does not request always:true, does not modify other skills/config, and has no special persistence demands. Installing mpv via dnf requires system privileges (sudo) which is normal for package installation.
How to Use
- Make sure OpenClaw is installed (local or Docker)
- Run the install command in chat:
/install media-player - After installation, invoke the skill by name or use
/media-player - Provide required inputs per the skill's parameter spec and get structured output
