Usage Guidance
This skill appears to do exactly what it says: it uses your XAI_API_KEY to call the x.ai Responses API (x_search) and returns summarized results with citations. Before installing, verify you trust the XAI_API_KEY you provide and that the key's permissions are appropriate. Review the included scripts locally if you want to confirm behavior (they're small, well-tested, and validate inputs). Note: the skill will make network calls to api.x.ai when used; do not provide a high-privilege API key if you only need read-only search functionality. Autonomous invocation is allowed by default on the platform (not set to always:true here), so consider whether you want the agent to call this skill without prompting.
Capability Analysis
Type: OpenClaw Skill
Name: slugname
Version: 1.0.0
The skill bundle provides a legitimate tool for searching X (Twitter) via the xAI Grok API. The Python script (scripts/search.py) uses standard libraries, implements robust input validation for handles and dates, and includes a security-conscious custom redirect handler to prevent credential leakage. No evidence of malicious intent, data exfiltration, or unauthorized execution was found.

Capability Assessment
Purpose & Capability
Name/description match the actual implementation: the Python scripts build a tool config and POST to https://api.x.ai/v1/responses using the x_search tool. Required binary (python3) and env var (XAI_API_KEY) are appropriate for the stated purpose.
Instruction Scope
SKILL.md instructs only to set XAI_API_KEY and run the included Python script with query and flags. The runtime code only reads the declared env var, validates CLI args, and sends requests to the documented x.ai endpoint; it does not read other system files or transmit data to unexpected endpoints.
Install Mechanism
Install spec only offers installing Python via Homebrew (formula: python) to provide python3. This is proportionate and standard for a Python-based skill; there are no downloads from arbitrary URLs or archive extraction.
Credentials
Only XAI_API_KEY is required and used. The scripts do not request or access other credentials, secrets, or unrelated environment variables. The SKILL.md's note about optional openclaw config storage is a reasonable UX hint, not additional credential exposure.
Persistence & Privilege
Skill does not request always:true and does not modify other skills or system-wide settings. It runs as a normal user-space script and requires only transient network access to the x.ai API.
How to Use
- Make sure OpenClaw is installed (local or Docker)
- Run the install command in chat:
