Description
Generate QR code images from text or URLs and decode QR codes from public image URLs without configuration.
Usage Guidance
This skill is coherent with its stated purpose, but it relies entirely on an external endpoint (gateway.pipeworx.io) that has no listed source or homepage. Before installing: 1) Be aware that any text you encode or image URLs you give will be sent to that third-party service — do NOT send secrets or private images. 2) If you need stronger guarantees, prefer a local QR library or a known trusted service. 3) If you still want to use this skill, test it with only non-sensitive data first and consider restricting autonomous invocation or network access until you verify the gateway's trustworthiness.
Capability Analysis
Type: OpenClaw Skill
Name: pipeworx-qrcode
Version: 1.0.0
The skill bundle provides documentation and configuration for a remote MCP server (gateway.pipeworx.io) to generate and decode QR codes. It contains no executable code or instructions that suggest malicious intent, data exfiltration, or prompt injection; the functionality is limited to standard API calls for QR code processing as described in SKILL.md.
Capability Assessment
Purpose & Capability
Name and description (create and read QR codes) align with the SKILL.md examples which call a QR code service (create_qr/read_qr) at gateway.pipeworx.io. There are no unrelated binaries or credentials requested.
Instruction Scope
The runtime instructions explicitly instruct the agent to POST arbitrary text payloads and image URLs to https://gateway.pipeworx.io/qrcode/mcp. That is exactly what is needed to implement QR generation/decoding, but the instructions give the agent broad discretion to send any data or image URLs to a third party. There is no local fallback or option to run these operations locally, and no limits on the kinds of data that will be transmitted.
Install Mechanism
Instruction-only skill with no install steps or code to write to disk. This is low-risk from a code-install perspective.
Credentials
The skill requests no environment variables or credentials (proportional), but because it sends user-provided content to an external API, lack of credentials does not mitigate privacy risk: sensitive text or images you supply (or that the agent finds) will be transmitted to an external, undocumented service.
Persistence & Privilege
always is false and there are no install-time modifications or requests to persist credentials or change other skills' configs. The skill can be invoked autonomously (platform default), which increases blast radius if combined with other concerns but is not by itself unusual.
How to Use
- Make sure OpenClaw is installed (local or Docker)
- Run the install command in chat:
/install pipeworx-qrcode - After installation, invoke the skill by name or use
/pipeworx-qrcode - Provide required inputs per the skill's parameter spec and get structured output
