Usage Guidance
This appears to be a local-only decision-journal and is internally consistent. Before installing: (1) Review setup.sh if you are concerned about file creation—it will create/modify ~/.nex-decision-journal and write a wrapper to ~/.local/bin (may overwrite an existing file with that name). (2) If you prefer risk isolation, run setup and the CLI inside a throwaway user account, container, or VM. (3) Confirm the source (nex-ai.be) if you want the upstream provenance. (4) Back up any existing ~/.local/bin/nex-decision-journal if you have one. (5) If you need to verify there is truly no telemetry, you can grep the code for network libraries/requests; the provided code shows only local SQLite and filesystem usage.
Capability Analysis
Type: OpenClaw Skill
Name: nex-decision-journal
Version: 1.0.0
The nex-decision-journal skill is a legitimate personal productivity tool for tracking decisions and outcomes. The code implements a standard SQLite-based CLI application with no external dependencies, network activity, or unauthorized data access. All data is stored locally in the user's home directory (~/.nex-decision-journal/), and the setup.sh script follows standard practices for environment initialization and CLI wrapper creation.
Capability Tags
Capability Assessment
Purpose & Capability
Name/description (decision journal) matches the provided files and runtime behavior: a Python CLI that stores decisions locally in SQLite and offers logging, review, search, stats, and export. Required binary is python3 which is appropriate.
Instruction Scope
SKILL.md instructs running the included setup.sh and using the local CLI. The runtime instructions only reference the local DB, export directory, and CLI commands; they do not ask the agent to read unrelated system files or reach out to external endpoints. The code and docs consistently state 'no telemetry' and local storage.
Install Mechanism
There is no remote install spec; installation is via the included setup.sh (local script). setup.sh initializes the DB, creates ~/.nex-decision-journal and ~/.local/bin/nex-decision-journal wrapper. This is typical for a local CLI but does write files into the user's home and creates a wrapper executable (it will overwrite an existing file at that path without prompting).
Credentials
The skill requests no environment variables or credentials; it optionally respects NEX_DECISION_JOURNAL_DIR to change the data dir. No unrelated secrets or config paths are requested.
Persistence & Privilege
The skill does create persistent artifacts (data directory, DB, and a CLI wrapper in ~/.local/bin). always:false and normal autonomous invocation are set. The persistent files are limited to the user's home directory and the skill does not modify other skills or system-wide agent settings.
How to Use
- Make sure OpenClaw is installed (local or Docker)
- Run the install command in chat:
/install nex-decision-journal - After installation, invoke the skill by name or use
/nex-decision-journal - Provide required inputs per the skill's parameter spec and get structured output
