Description
Build and maintain Raycast extensions using the Raycast API. Triggers on @raycast/api, List, Grid, Detail, Form, AI.ask, LocalStorage, Cache, showToast, and BrowserExtension. Use this repo's references/api/*.md files as the primary source of truth for component specs and API usage.
Usage Guidance
This skill is a documentation-driven helper for writing Raycast extensions and is internally consistent. Before using code generated from it or installing any extension you build, review the generated code for: (1) uses of Clipboard.readText, getSelectedFinderItems, or environment.supportPath — these access local user data and files; (2) calls to AI.ask or external HTTP endpoints — these will transmit data off-device; and (3) any file-write logic that writes into the extension supportPath. The skill itself does not request secrets or install binaries, but extensions produced from it may legitimately require runtime permissions — ensure you trust the code/source and confirm permission prompts when you run the extension.
Capability Analysis
Type: OpenClaw Skill
Name: raycast
Version: 1.0.0
The OpenClaw AgentSkills skill bundle for Raycast extensions is classified as benign. While it exposes powerful Raycast APIs that can access sensitive system resources (e.g., clipboard, browser tabs, file system, window management) and external AI/OAuth services, the documentation and code examples consistently demonstrate their use for legitimate, stated purposes. Crucially, the instructions in `SKILL.md` and API references (e.g., `ai.md`, `browser-extension.md`, `tool.md`) explicitly guide the AI agent to implement security best practices, such as checking `environment.canAccess()` before using restricted APIs and utilizing `Tool.Confirmation` for actions with side-effects. There is no evidence of intentional harmful behavior, data exfiltration to unauthorized endpoints, persistence mechanisms, or obfuscation.
Capability Assessment
Purpose & Capability
The name/description (Raycast extensions) match the included SKILL.md and reference docs. The repo contains many Raycast API reference files (List, Grid, Detail, Form, AI, LocalStorage, Cache, showToast, BrowserExtension, etc.), which align with the stated purpose. There are no unrelated binaries, credentials, or install steps requested.
Instruction Scope
The runtime instructions are narrowly scoped to: identify UI components, consult the included references, and produce Raycast extension code examples. The provided examples and reference files do show APIs that access clipboard, selected Finder items, the extension supportPath (read/write files), and Raycast's AI API. Those capabilities are expected when authoring Raycast extensions, but they do mean generated code could read local data or send clipboard/selected text to remote AI services (AI.ask). The SKILL.md itself does not instruct indiscriminate collection or exfiltration, but it authorizes use of APIs that can handle potentially sensitive user data.
Install Mechanism
This is instruction-only (no install spec, no code executed at install), so nothing will be written to disk or fetched during installation by the skill itself.
Credentials
The skill requests no environment variables, binaries, or credentials. It documents use of Raycast APIs (including environment.canAccess checks) and does not ask for unrelated secrets. Note: extensions produced using these instructions may request or require API access (e.g., AI access) or runtime permissions (clipboard, finder) from the user — that is normal for Raycast extensions but worth reviewing in any generated code.
Persistence & Privilege
The skill does not request always: true and does not modify other skills or global settings. It's an agent-facing instruction set and does not ask for permanent platform presence.
