Usage Guidance
This skill appears to do what it says: it wraps the upstream omnifocus-mcp server to let OpenClaw read and modify your OmniFocus database. Before installing, confirm you trust the npm package 'omnifocus-mcp' (review its npm/GitHub source), understand that macOS will prompt to allow automation (granting the host process the ability to control OmniFocus), and be comfortable that OpenClaw will register a local MCP server entry. If you prefer, inspect the omnifocus-mcp source and test read-only queries first before allowing write operations.
Capability Analysis
Type: OpenClaw Skill
Name: omnifocus-mcp-openclaw
Version: 1.0.2
The skill bundle is a legitimate wrapper for the upstream 'omnifocus-mcp' tool, designed to allow OpenClaw to manage OmniFocus tasks on macOS via AppleScript. The included scripts (scripts/check_setup.sh and scripts/register_mcp.sh) perform standard environment checks and configuration, and the instructions in SKILL.md are well-aligned with the stated purpose of task management without any evidence of malicious intent or data exfiltration.
Capability Assessment
Purpose & Capability
The name/description claim a macOS OmniFocus integration and the skill only requires node/npm and the omnifocus-mcp binary, plus OmniFocus on macOS. Those requirements are appropriate and expected for this purpose; no unrelated credentials or services are requested.
Instruction Scope
SKILL.md and helper scripts limit actions to installing/verifying omnifocus-mcp, registering an OpenClaw MCP server, and guidance for querying and mutating OmniFocus. The scripts check system state (osascript, OmniFocus.app, paths) and call openclaw to register the MCP server — this is within scope. Note: the integration relies on AppleScript/macOS automation, so using the skill will prompt macOS automation permissions allowing the host process to control OmniFocus; that is expected but privileged.
Install Mechanism
The install spec uses the npm package 'omnifocus-mcp' (npm install -g omnifocus-mcp). Installing a package from the public npm registry is appropriate for this upstream tool but carries the usual supply-chain considerations of any npm package; the install does not download from arbitrary URLs or use extract operations.
Credentials
No environment variables or credentials are requested. The skill only needs local binaries and macOS automation permission to control OmniFocus, which is proportional to its stated functionality.
Persistence & Privilege
always is false and model invocation is allowed (normal). The register script writes an OpenClaw MCP entry (openclaw mcp set omnifocus ...) which is appropriate for registering the local MCP server; it does not modify other skills or request permanent elevated privileges.
How to Use
- Make sure OpenClaw is installed (local or Docker)
- Run the install command in chat:
/install omnifocus-mcp-openclaw - After installation, invoke the skill by name or use
/omnifocus-mcp-openclaw - Provide required inputs per the skill's parameter spec and get structured output
