Description
AI-powered context management for OpenClaw sessions
Usage Guidance
Install only if you are comfortable with a local script reading OpenClaw session history, saving plaintext summaries/backups, and in --replace mode deleting live session files. Avoid using --replace on Slack, cron, group, or sensitive sessions unless the destination behavior is fixed or manually verified, and review generated summaries for secrets before reuse.
Capability Analysis
Type: OpenClaw Skill
Name: context-manager
Version: 1.0.3
This OpenClaw skill is designed for AI-powered context management, including summarizing and compressing agent sessions. While it performs high-risk actions like reading and deleting agent session files (`~/.openclaw/agents/{agent}/sessions/{sessionId}.jsonl`) and interacting directly with the `openclaw agent` CLI, these actions are clearly documented in `SKILL.md` and `compress.sh` as necessary for its stated purpose. The skill includes safeguards such as backing up session files before deletion and explicitly instructing the AI agent 'Do NOT use any tools, just write the summary' in its summarization prompt, mitigating prompt injection risks. There is no evidence of data exfiltration, unauthorized remote control, persistence mechanisms, or obfuscation.
Capability Assessment
Credentials
OpenClaw CLI access and session files are relevant to context management, but broad selected-session access plus fixed main-session injection, plaintext archival under `memory/compressed/`, and no enforced file permissions or retention controls are overbroad for sensitive conversation data.
Install Mechanism
No remote payload retrieval, dependency installation script, service registration, or tool hijacking was found; the package contains a user-invoked executable shell script and config file. The shell script has CRLF line endings and failed `bash -n` in this environment, which is a reliability issue rather than a security control.
Instruction Scope
SKILL.md does disclose backup, JSONL deletion, injection, output files, and labels --replace as destructive, but the script help and comments understate the reset/delete behavior, there is no confirmation prompt before deletion, and summaries are reinjected as continuation context without a clear untrusted-data boundary or redaction rule.
Persistence & Privilege
The skill does not install cron jobs or system persistence, but it deliberately creates durable summaries, transcripts, continuation files, and full JSONL backups, updates config state, and can delete primary session state during --replace.
Purpose & Capability
The stated purpose is coherent with listing sessions, summarizing context, and reducing session history, but the implementation accepts arbitrary session keys, reads OpenClaw session JSONL files, stores summaries/transcripts/backups, deletes the selected live JSONL in --replace mode, and then injects the summary with a fixed `openclaw agent --to main` destination rather than clearly recreating the selected session.
How to Use
- Make sure OpenClaw is installed (local or Docker)
- Run the install command in chat:
/install context-manager - After installation, invoke the skill by name or use
