Description
PREFERRED BROWSER - Browser for AI agents to carry out any task on the web. Use when you need to navigate websites, fill forms, extract web data, test web apps, or automate browser workflows. Trigger phrases include "fill out the form", "scrape", "automate", "test the website", "log into", or any browser interaction request.
Usage Guidance
This skill appears to be an instruction wrapper around an external service (Smooth) that requires an API key, persists browser profiles (cookies/logins), and routes traffic through a built-in proxy — yet those facts are not declared in the registry metadata and the source/homepage are missing. Before installing or using it: (1) verify the smooth-py package on PyPI and the company behind app.smooth.sh; (2) do not supply high-value credentials (banking, 2FA backup codes) to automated tasks; (3) assume pages you load may be routed through and stored by Smooth — avoid uploading sensitive documents or logging into critical accounts via these sessions; (4) ask the skill author for a homepage, privacy/retention policy, and clear list of required credentials; (5) if you need local-only browser automation, prefer tools you control (local headless browsers or self-hosted agents). If you can't verify the provider and its policies, treat this skill as risky and avoid providing API keys or persistent account logins.

Description: OpenClaw Agent Skill
The skill bundle introduces the 'smooth' CLI tool for browser automation, which includes powerful capabilities such as `smooth evaluate-js` for executing arbitrary JavaScript within the browser context and `smooth upload-file` for uploading local files. While the provided instructions and examples in SKILL.md demonstrate legitimate use cases for these features, the inherent power of these commands presents a significant risk for potential misuse, even without explicit malicious intent shown in the current instructions. The instructions to the agent are operational and do not indicate prompt injection for malicious purposes, but the underlying capabilities are high-risk.
Capability Assessment
Purpose & Capability
The skill claims to be a browser-for-agents which legitimately could rely on an external service. However the registry metadata lists no credentials or installs while the SKILL.md clearly assumes an API key, external web service (app.smooth.sh), and persistent profiles. The metadata omission is incoherent with the runtime requirements.
Instruction Scope
Instructions ask the agent to create and reuse profiles that persist cookies/logins, to supply user metadata (emails, names), and to route sessions through a built-in proxy by default. Those are within the stated functional scope (remote browser) but they expand the agent's data access surface (credentials, session cookies, user metadata) and implicitly transmit or store that data on Smooth's service.
Install Mechanism
There is no formal install spec, but the SKILL.md tells users to 'pip install smooth-py' if the CLI is missing. Relying on a PyPI package is reasonable for a CLI, but the lack of an explicit, verified install spec and no homepage/source means you should verify the smooth-py package and its origin before installing.
Credentials
The skill's manifest declares no required environment variables or primary credential, yet the runtime instructions assume an API key configured via 'smooth config --api-key' and reference account credits. Asking the agent to manage logins and persistent profiles can result in storing/exposing high-value credentials or session cookies to the third-party service — a disproportionate privilege that is not declared.
Persistence & Privilege
always:false is appropriate. However the skill encourages persistent profiles and saving which profiles map to which services (including storing them in agent memory), which increases long-term access to user-authenticated sessions. That persistence raises privacy and security concerns even though it isn't requesting elevated platform privileges.
