Description
Automatically identify Western Blot gel bands, perform densitometric analysis, and calculate normalized values relative to loading controls.
Usage Guidance
This package appears incomplete or inconsistently packaged rather than obviously malicious, but it will likely fail if run as-is. Before installing or running it: 1) Inspect scripts/main.py locally — run python -m py_compile scripts/main.py and run the demo (--demo) in an isolated virtualenv to observe behavior. 2) Do not run this on sensitive systems or with production data; use an isolated environment. 3) Note the API mismatches: SKILL.md expects a WesternBlotQuantifier class and richer outputs, but the code defines WBQuantifier and a minimal CLI. 4) If you need the claimed features, request an updated package from the author or fix the package: align exported names in scripts/__init__.py, implement the missing classes/methods, and/or reduce the documentation to reflect actual functionality. 5) If you cannot validate these fixes, treat the skill as untrusted or incomplete and avoid using it on important data. If you want, provide me with the output of running the demo or py_compile errors and I can help identify exactly what to change.
Capability Analysis
Type: OpenClaw Skill Name: western-blot-quantifier-1 Version: 1.0.0 The skill bundle provides a legitimate utility for Western Blot image analysis and quantification. The core logic in `scripts/main.py` performs basic peak detection and intensity normalization using NumPy, and the documentation in `SKILL.md` is strictly task-oriented without any signs of prompt injection or malicious instructions. No indicators of data exfiltration, unauthorized network access, or suspicious execution patterns were found.
Capability Assessment
Purpose & Capability
The SKILL.md describes full-featured band detection, densitometry, normalization, CSV export, a WesternBlotQuantifier class and CLI flags (e.g. --input, --reference), and lists many image-processing dependencies. The shipped code is a small script defining a WBQuantifier class with only basic demo support and a different CLI (--image, --lanes, --demo). Several claimed capabilities (export, structured return object, background correction methods, scikit-image/OpenCV usage) are not implemented.
Instruction Scope
SKILL.md instructs users/agents to import and call WesternBlotQuantifier and to run CLI options that do not exist in the provided script. The docs and usage examples reference functions, return types, and parameters that the code doesn't provide. Instructions to run python -m py_compile scripts/main.py are reasonable, but following the SKILL.md workflow would fail or produce misleading results because of API mismatches.
Install Mechanism
No install spec is provided (instruction-only), but a requirements.txt is included listing several image-processing libraries. That is reasonable for the claimed purpose, but because no install step is declared, an agent may not install dependencies automatically. The requirements list is broader than what the included code actually needs.
Credentials
The skill requests no environment variables, credentials, or config paths. There is no evidence of requests for unrelated secrets or environment access.
Persistence & Privilege
The skill is not marked always:true and does not request elevated or persistent privileges. It does not modify other skills or system-wide configurations.
How to Use
  1. Make sure OpenClaw is installed (local or Docker)
  2. Run the install command in chat: /install western-blot-quantifier-1
  3. After installation, invoke the skill by name or use /western-blot-quantifier-1
  4. Provide required inputs per the skill's parameter spec and get structured output
