GitHub operations via `gh` CLI: issues, PRs, CI runs, code review, API queries. Use when: (1) checking PR status or CI, (2) creating/commenting on issues, (3) listing/filtering PRs or issues, (4) viewing run logs. NOT for: complex web UI interactions requiring manual browser flows (use browser tooling when available), bulk operations across many repos (script with gh api), or when gh auth is not configured.

Installs fetch a stored snapshot of that commit, so the code can't change after the fact.

No human has reviewed this code. The checks below are a static scan of the files at one commit — nobody has run this skill or judged whether it works. A skill runs with whatever access you give your agent, so read the source before you install it.

Automated safety checks

scanned

This skill passed all 6 checks. We read its files at one commit and looked for the things that make a skill dangerous to run — not for whether it works.

  • Declares what it does: passed

    SKILL.md parses and declares a name and a description.

    SKILL.md exists, its frontmatter parses, and it declares a name and a description.

  • No undeclared network calls: passed

    Makes no network calls.

    Every host the skill dials — from its scripts, its config endpoints or the commands it tells the agent to run — is either well-known package and API infrastructure or declared in its own frontmatter. Links in documentation are not counted.

  • No obfuscated payloads: passed

    No encoded or obfuscated payloads.

    No base64, hex or compressed blob is decoded and then executed, and no encoded shell commands.

  • No credential access: passed

    Reads no keys, tokens, keychains or credential files.

    Neither the code nor the SKILL.md instructions read SSH keys, cloud credentials, keychains, token stores, browser cookie databases or dotfiles that hold secrets.

  • No pipe-to-shell installers: passed

    No pipe-to-shell or download-and-run installers.

    No `curl … | sh` pattern, in the code or in the instructions, that runs code fetched at run time.

  • Pinned to a commit: passed

    Scanned openclaw/openclaw at f12a8dee23.

    The exact upstream commit SHA that was scanned is recorded, so the result refers to specific bytes.

This is a static scan, not a review. It reads the skill's files; it does not run them, and it cannot tell you whether the skill is any good or whether the code does what its description says. A skill runs with whatever access you give your agent.

About this skill

What it does

OpenClaw is a personal AI assistant designed to be run locally on your devices. It provides responses across various messaging platforms like WhatsApp, Telegram, Slack, and Discord. It offers both voice interaction (on macOS/iOS/Android) and a live, controllable Canvas interface.

When to use it

  • Private Communication: Use OpenClaw for handling personal tasks and information within your preferred messaging apps without relying on cloud-based services.
  • Local Processing: When you need an AI assistant that operates primarily offline or with enhanced privacy due to data sensitivity.
  • Customizable Interface: Leverage the Canvas feature for interactive workflows and visual representations of information.
  • Multi-Platform Support: Manage communication across a wide range of platforms, including Slack, Discord, Telegram, WhatsApp, and more.

Key capabilities

  • Cross-platform messaging support (WhatsApp, Telegram, Slack, Discord, etc.)
  • Voice interaction on macOS/iOS/Android devices
  • Live Canvas interface for interactive control
  • Local operation for enhanced privacy
  • Onboarding wizard for easy setup (openclaw onboard)

Example prompts

  • "OpenClaw, summarize my latest messages in Slack."
  • "Can you create a quick sketch of a cat using the Canvas?"
  • “Send a message to [contact name] via WhatsApp saying 'I'll be late'."

Tips & gotchas

  • The preferred setup method is running openclaw onboard in your terminal. This guides users through the initial configuration steps.
  • OpenClaw functions as an assistant; its capabilities are dependent on the underlying AI models and integrations configured within it.
