Description
Read Airtable bases, tables, and records directly via the Airtable API. Use when you need spreadsheet/database data from Airtable. Calls api.airtable.com dir...
Usage Guidance
This skill appears to do exactly what it claims: call api.airtable.com using a Personal Access Token (AIRTABLE_PAT) and print results. Before installing, consider: - Use a least-privilege PAT (scopes data.records:read and schema.bases:read and limit the bases it can access). If possible create a token that only covers the bases the agent must read. - The script prints record data to stdout; anything the agent does with that output (logging, forwarding) is your responsibility. Don’t provide a PAT that exposes unrelated sensitive bases. - The code has minor correctness issues (search formula formatting and fields handling) and does not sanitize user-supplied formula/query strings — avoid running untrusted queries if you’re worried about unexpected Airtable formula behavior. - If the PAT is ever exposed or you stop using the skill, revoke the token in your Airtable account. Overall this skill is internally consistent and low-risk, but follow standard secret-management practices and review output handling in your agent environment.
Capability Analysis
Type: OpenClaw Skill Name: native-airtable Version: 0.1.0 The skill is designed to interact with the Airtable API, and its `SKILL.md` instructions are benign. However, the `scripts/airtable.py` file contains a vulnerability in the `cmd_search_records` function. User-provided `query` and `field` arguments are directly embedded into an Airtable formula string without proper sanitization, which could lead to an Airtable formula injection. This vulnerability could allow an attacker to manipulate the search query on the Airtable server, potentially leading to unintended data access or API errors, though it does not pose a direct risk of RCE or data exfiltration from the local system.
Capability Assessment
Purpose & Capability
Name/description match the included CLI script and required env var. The skill only needs python3 and an Airtable PAT (AIRTABLE_PAT) to call api.airtable.com, which is exactly what a native Airtable reader should require.
Instruction Scope
SKILL.md instructs the agent to set AIRTABLE_PAT and run the provided script under /mnt/skills/user/.... The script only reads AIRTABLE_PAT, makes HTTPS calls to api.airtable.com, and prints responses to stdout. It does not read other system files, config paths, or send data to external endpoints beyond api.airtable.com.
Install Mechanism
No install spec is provided (instruction-only with a bundled script) and the only runtime dependency is python3. No downloads, package installs, or third-party installers are requested.
Credentials
The skill declares a single required environment variable AIRTABLE_PAT (also primaryEnv). That matches the functionality and is proportionate; no unrelated secrets or multiple credentials are requested.
Persistence & Privilege
The skill is not forced as always:true and is user-invocable. It does not attempt to modify other skills or system-wide settings. Autonomous invocation remains possible (platform default) but is not combined with any extra privileges.
How to Use
  1. Make sure OpenClaw is installed (local or Docker)
  2. Run the install command in chat: /install native-airtable
  3. After installation, invoke the skill by name or use /native-airtable
  4. Provide required inputs per the skill's parameter spec and get structured output
