Description
Real-time retrieval of the latest official OpenClaw documentation, returned as compact LLM-friendly Markdown for config, CLI, channels, gateway, and skills q...
Usage Guidance
This skill appears to do what it says: it sends your (translated) queries to a public Mintlify search endpoint and fetches pages from docs.openclaw.ai, then returns cleaned Markdown. Before installing, consider: (1) any query text you send (including translated Chinese→English text) will be transmitted to external services and may be logged by those services — avoid sending secrets or private config in queries; (2) the package includes Node code and depends on jsdom/turndown — if your agent platform executes the included code, ensure you trust execution of third-party npm packages in your environment; (3) if you need private/internal docs or must avoid sending data externally, do not use this skill. Otherwise, the skill's footprint is proportional and coherent with its purpose.
Capability Analysis
Type: OpenClaw Skill
Name: openclaw-docs-search
Version: 1.0.4
The skill is a legitimate documentation retrieval tool designed to search and fetch content from the official OpenClaw documentation sites (docs.openclaw.ai and leaves.mintlify.com). The code in search.ts and search.js uses standard libraries (jsdom, turndown) to parse HTML and convert it to Markdown for LLM consumption. There is no evidence of data exfiltration, unauthorized file access, or malicious execution; the instructions in SKILL.md are focused on grounding the agent's responses in official documentation to prevent hallucinations during high-risk configuration tasks.
Capability Assessment
Purpose & Capability
Name/description (real-time OpenClaw docs search) matches the code and SKILL.md: the skill queries a public search API (leaves.mintlify.com) and fetches pages from https://docs.openclaw.ai/ then extracts the #content-area and converts it to Markdown. No unrelated credentials, binaries, or config paths are requested.
Instruction Scope
SKILL.md and the code instruct the agent to POST the user's (translated) query to the Mintlify search endpoint and to fetch specific docs pages. This stays within the claimed purpose, but it does mean user queries and any translated text will be transmitted to an external service (leaves.mintlify.com and docs.openclaw.ai). The SKILL.md also mandates translating Chinese intents to English before searching — this can cause additional content to be sent to the external search API.
Install Mechanism
No install spec is provided (instruction-only install), which minimizes install-time risk. The package includes Node source and a compiled build that depends on jsdom and turndown (both public npm packages) — nothing is fetched from unusual URLs or private servers.
Credentials
The skill declares no required environment variables or credentials. The code performs only public HTTP requests and DOM-to-Markdown conversion; it does not attempt to read local files or environment secrets.
Persistence & Privilege
always is false and the skill is user-invocable. It does not request permanent platform presence or attempt to modify other skills or system-wide settings.
