Usage Guidance
This skill appears to do exactly what it claims: local clipboard access and a saved history file. Before installing, verify and fix the script path referenced in SKILL.md (or ensure the file is installed at skills/clipboard-manager-1.0.0/scripts/clipboard.sh), and be aware that the tool will write clipboard contents to clipboard-history.md in the workspace root. Because clipboards often contain sensitive data, consider adding clipboard-history.md to .gitignore, restricting file permissions, or removing sensitive items from history. Also note the trim_history implementation looks buggy and could corrupt the history file; review/patch that function if you plan to rely on it. Finally, ensure required platform binaries (pbcopy/pbpaste, xclip/xsel, or PowerShell/clip) are available.
Capability Analysis
Type: OpenClaw Skill
Name: clipboard-manager-tool
Version: 1.0.0
The skill manages clipboard history by logging content to a local file (`clipboard-history.md`), which poses a privacy risk as it may capture sensitive data like passwords or API keys in plain text. The `scripts/clipboard.sh` file contains shell injection vulnerabilities where user-provided text is piped directly into commands (e.g., `echo "$text" | pbcopy` and `grep ... "$keyword"`) without sanitization. While the behavior aligns with the stated purpose, the lack of input validation and the inherent risk of clipboard logging make it a security concern.
Capability Assessment
Purpose & Capability
The skill's name/description match its behavior: it reads and writes the system clipboard and stores history in a markdown file. It legitimately needs write access to the workspace to store clipboard-history.md. Minor inconsistency: SKILL.md commands reference 'skills/clipboard-manager-1.0.0/scripts/clipboard.sh' while the provided manifest shows scripts/clipboard.sh at the package root, so the runtime path in the instructions may not exist as written.
Instruction Scope
SKILL.md confines the agent to running the included shell script for save/get/set/history/clear/search. The instructions do not request additional credentials or read unrelated system files. However, the instructions reference a specific path that doesn't match the file manifest (packaging mismatch) which may cause the agent to fail to run the script unless paths are corrected.
Install Mechanism
No install spec is present and the skill is instruction+script only. Nothing is downloaded or written by an installer step. This minimizes install-time risk.
Credentials
No environment variables or external credentials are requested (good). The script does persist clipboard contents to workspace/clipboard-history.md — this is expected for a history tool but means any sensitive data copied to the clipboard (passwords, tokens, private keys) will be saved in plaintext in the workspace. The user should be aware and treat the history file appropriately (gitignore, permissions, encryption) or avoid saving sensitive clipboard contents.
Persistence & Privilege
The skill does not set always:true and does not attempt to modify other skills or global agent settings. It only writes its own history file in the workspace root, which is within its scope.
