/install tcp
Description
Helps with TCP sockets, client/server connections, and network debugging. Use when the user needs to open TCP connections, write socket code, test ports, deb...
Usage Guidance
This appears to be a straightforward, instruction-only TCP/socket helper. Before running any suggested commands on your machine, review them and confirm you understand their effects (some require elevated privileges or open network connections). The skill may recommend using tools like netcat, tcpdump, or PowerShell — ensure you trust the environment where those commands will run and avoid exposing sensitive data when testing on public networks. If you want stricter control, require confirmation before the agent executes any network tests or runs commands. Overall the skill is coherent with its stated purpose.
Capability Analysis
Type: OpenClaw Skill
Name: tcp
Version: 1.0.0
The skill bundle provides standard documentation and command-line examples for TCP networking, socket programming, and port testing across various platforms and languages. It includes legitimate troubleshooting advice and security best practices without any evidence of malicious intent, data exfiltration, or prompt injection in SKILL.md or _meta.json.
Capability Assessment
Purpose & Capability
Name and description match the SKILL.md content: guidance for TCP sockets, port testing, and socket code snippets across languages. The skill requests no binaries, env vars, or config paths beyond what its stated purpose needs.
Instruction Scope
SKILL.md contains only debugging commands (Test-NetConnection, nc, telnet), code examples, troubleshooting steps, and recommendations to use packet captures (tcpdump/Wireshark). It does not instruct reading unrelated files, exfiltrating data, or contacting unexpected external endpoints. It appropriately scopes advice to network debugging and coding.
Install Mechanism
No install spec and no code files — instruction-only. This minimizes on-disk risk; nothing is downloaded or installed by the skill itself.
Credentials
The skill requests no environment variables, credentials, or config paths. The suggestions to use tools that may already exist (nc, telnet, PowerShell) are reasonable and proportionate.
Persistence & Privilege
always is false and there is no indication the skill modifies agent/system configuration or requests permanent presence. Autonomous invocation of the skill by the agent is enabled by default (normal), but the skill itself does not escalate privileges.
How to Use
- Make sure OpenClaw is installed (local or Docker)
- Run the install command in chat:
/install tcp - After installation, invoke the skill by name or use
/tcp - Provide required inputs per the skill's parameter spec and get structured output
