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

The nano-pdf skill, part of the OpenClaw personal AI assistant, allows users to interact with and manage PDF documents locally. It enables voice commands for tasks like summarizing content or extracting specific information from PDFs without sending data externally. This provides a private and efficient way to work with document data.

When to use it

  • Quickly summarize a lengthy research paper while working offline.
  • Extract key names, dates, or figures from a financial report.
  • Get a concise overview of a legal contract without needing to read the entire document.
  • Review and understand complex technical manuals on-the-go.

Key capabilities

  • Local PDF processing: Operates entirely on your device for privacy.
  • Voice command interface: Interact with PDFs using spoken instructions.
  • Content summarization: Generates concise summaries of PDF documents.
  • Information extraction: Extracts specific data points from within a PDF.

Example prompts

  • "Summarize this PDF."
  • "Extract all dates from the document."
  • "What are the key findings in this report?"

Tips & gotchas

The nano-pdf skill requires OpenClaw to be properly installed and onboarded first, following the instructions at https://docs.openclaw.ai/start/getting-started. Performance may vary depending on the size and complexity of the PDF document being processed.
