Description
Sovereign AI knowledge infrastructure. Typed entity graph, documents, long-term memory, messaging relay, and AI governance — all in PostgreSQL.
Usage Guidance
This skill is coherent: it connects your agent to a Synap pod and uses the SYNAP_HUB_API_KEY to read and write persistent memory and entities on that pod. Before installing, confirm you trust the pod at SYNAP_POD_URL (or self-host using the README steps). Limit the API key scopes (only hub-protocol.read and hub-protocol.write as required), store the key securely, and avoid using a managed/third-party pod for highly sensitive data unless you have strong trust and auditing. Note: the skill can be invoked autonomously by agents (normal for memory skills), so an attacker who gains the key+pod could read/write persistent agent data — rotate keys and monitor audit logs if possible.
Capability Analysis
Type: OpenClaw Skill
Name: synap
Version: 1.0.0
The synap skill provides a structured interface for an AI agent to interact with a knowledge management service via REST API. The SKILL.md file includes explicit safety instructions that prohibit the agent from accessing sensitive local files (e.g., .env, system paths) and defines a governance model requiring user approval for entity and document creation. The behavior is well-documented and aligned with the stated purpose of providing sovereign AI knowledge infrastructure.
Capability Assessment
Purpose & Capability
Name/description match the declared env vars and API endpoints. Requesting SYNAP_HUB_API_KEY and SYNAP_POD_URL is appropriate for a remote hub protocol that provides memory, entities, and relays.
Instruction Scope
SKILL.md explicitly confines actions to the Synap hub REST API under {SYNAP_POD_URL}/api/hub and lists the read/write primitives and governance responses. It does not instruct reading unrelated local files, hidden paths, or other unrelated credentials.
Install Mechanism
Instruction-only skill with no install spec or code files, so nothing is written to disk or downloaded by the installer; low install surface.
Credentials
Only two required env vars (hub API key and pod URL) plus optional, documented vars are requested. The primary credential (SYNAP_HUB_API_KEY) reasonably maps to the described read/write operations; the README notes required scopes.
Persistence & Privilege
The skill does not request always: true and is not asking to modify other skills or system-wide settings. It does allow autonomous invocation (default), which is expected for a memory/knowledge skill; that increases blast radius but is consistent with purpose.
How to Use
- Make sure OpenClaw is installed (local or Docker)
- Run the install command in chat:
/install synap - After installation, invoke the skill by name or use
/synap - Provide required inputs per the skill's parameter spec and get structured output
Version History
v1.0.0
Synap 1.0.0 — Initial Release
- Introduces sovereign AI knowledge infrastructure with a typed entity graph, long-term memory, messaging relay, and AI governance — all backed by PostgreSQL.
- Provides structured memory with search and recall across entities, documents, and facts using Typesense full-text and pgvector semantic search.
- Supports governance workflows: all writes are reviewed or auto-approved as appropriate to ensure data integrity and user oversight.
- Integrates messaging relay for external channels (Telegram, WhatsApp, Slack), allowing messages to be brought into Synap for AI processing.
- Fully documented data model, API endpoints, setup methods, and response formats included for easy onboarding.
