Install caution

High-risk behavior present

Risk: High

Source: OpenClaw Master Skills

Path: skills/academic-research-hub/SKILL.md

Review flags: filesystem/home-directory access, network access or external URLs, package installation commands, shell command snippets. These are review signals, not definitive security judgments; inspect before installing.

Required permissions

  • Environment variables / secrets
  • Shell commands
  • Network/API usage
  • Filesystem/home access

Permissions are inferred from SKILL.md text only. They are review prompts, not guarantees about runtime behavior.

Risk flags explained

filesystem_write_or_home_accessmedium

Mentions filesystem writes, deletes, home-directory paths, or config/key locations.

network_accessmedium

Mentions external URLs, network APIs, downloads, or HTTP client usage.

package_installmedium

Mentions package installation or dependency-fetching commands.

shell_commandmedium

Contains shell command snippets. Review commands before copy/paste or agent execution.
