Description
Reading intelligence — log books, capture quotes, and surface reads when they're relevant. One markdown file per book in pages/. Use when logging a new book,...
Usage Guidance
This skill is coherent and low-risk as provided: it stores and reads local markdown files and asks no credentials. Before installing or following README install snippets, inspect the remote SKILL.md/README URL (don’t blindly run curl from unknown sources). Be aware that enabling the optional heartbeat/cron will make the agent check your book files periodically (accept only if you want regular notifications). If you allow image fetching or web lookups, the agent may make outbound network requests to look up authors/covers; allow those only if you’re comfortable with the agent accessing the web. Finally, if you use the Peeps integration, confirm that linking across your personal files matches your desired privacy model.
Capability Analysis
Type: OpenClaw Skill
Name: pages
Version: 1.0.1
The 'pages' skill manages a reading intelligence database using local markdown files and shell commands like `grep`. It contains high-risk instructions for the agent to self-update by fetching and overwriting its own logic (`SKILL.md`) from a remote GitHub URL and suggests establishing persistence through a cron job for periodic 'heartbeat' checks. While these capabilities are plausibly needed for the stated purpose of a persistent, up-to-date reading assistant, the self-modification and remote artifact fetching represent significant security risks (SKILL.md, README.md).
Capability Assessment
Purpose & Capability
Name/description align with the instructions: creating and searching mind/pages/, saving book metadata, capturing quotes, and linking to Peeps if present. The skill does not request unrelated binaries, env vars, or config paths.
Instruction Scope
Runtime instructions are limited to workspace-local operations (create mind/pages/, read pagesconfig.yml and book files, append notes, grep the folder). It directs the agent to 'search the web' and optionally fetch cover images when pagesconfig.yml images: yes — expected for enriching book metadata but means the agent may make external network queries when performing those steps.
Install Mechanism
No install spec is present in the registry metadata (instruction-only), so nothing is written or executed automatically. The README includes example curl/npm install snippets — those are user-run commands and not executed by the skill itself; they reference GitHub raw content (a common pattern) but should be treated as a manual install step.
Credentials
The skill declares no required environment variables, credentials, or sensitive config paths. It may read local files in the workspace (pagesconfig.yml, peepsconfig.yml) by design; that is proportional to its purpose.
Persistence & Privilege
always is false and the skill is user-invocable. The SKILL.md suggests optionally adding a Pages check to HEARTBEAT.md or creating a cron (*/30 7-22 * * *) — this is a user-facing suggestion and the skill says to ask the human first. If you accept those suggestions, the skill would run periodically; consider whether you want automated, frequent reminders.
How to Use
- Make sure OpenClaw is installed (local or Docker)
- Run the install command in chat:
/install pages - After installation, invoke the skill by name or use
/pages - Provide required inputs per the skill's parameter spec and get structured output
