The instructions your agent reads when the skill is triggered.
OpenClaw host healthcheck
Goal: assess host risk, run read-only checks, then propose staged hardening without breaking access.
Rules
- Ask before state-changing actions.
- Do not change SSH/firewall/remote access until access path is confirmed.
- Prefer reversible steps and rollback notes.
- Never claim OpenClaw manages OS firewall, SSH, or updates.
- If identity/role unknown, recommend only.
- User choices: numbered list.
- Never print secrets.
Context to infer first
- OS/version, container vs host.
- Privilege level.
- Access path: local, SSH, RDP, tailnet.
- Network exposure: public IP, reverse proxy, tunnel, LAN only.
- OpenClaw gateway status, bind, auth.
- Backup status.
- Disk encryption.
- Automatic security updates.
- Usage mode: personal workstation, local assistant box, remote server, other.
Ask only for missing facts. Simple phrasing preferred.
Read-only checks
Ask once for permission to run read-only checks. Then run relevant commands.
Common:
openclaw security audit --deep
openclaw gateway status --deep
openclaw doctor --lint
doctor --lint can exit 1 for findings: read the report and continue the remaining checks. Ordinary doctor and doctor --non-interactive can copy legacy config and migrate state without --fix; reserve repairs for explicit approval. Read-only checks exclude config/service repairs and state migrations, but may produce incidental logs or cache bookkeeping.
macOS:
sw_vers
lsof -nP -iTCP -sTCP:LISTEN
/usr/libexec/ApplicationFirewall/socketfilterfw --getglobalstate
pfctl -s info
tmutil status
fdesetup status
softwareupdate --schedule
Linux:
cat /etc/os-release
ss -ltnup || ss -ltnp
ufw status || firewall-cmd --state || nft list ruleset
systemctl status ssh sshd
lsblk -f
Windows:
systeminfo
Get-NetFirewallProfile
Get-BitLockerVolume
Risk profile
After context is known, ask desired posture:
- Convenience: local/private, minimal prompts.
- Balanced: secure defaults, low friction.
- Strict: remote/public/sensitive data, more lock-down.
Report shape
- Current posture: one paragraph.
- Findings: severity + evidence + why it matters.
- Recommended plan: staged, reversible.
- Commands: read-only first; write actions only after approval.
- Gaps: what could not be checked.
Hardening menu
Offer only relevant items:
- Bind gateway to loopback/LAN/tailnet intentionally.
- Require auth for remote access.
- Close public ports or restrict by firewall.
- Enable OS security updates.
- Enable disk encryption.
- Verify backups and restore path.
- Disable password SSH or require keys/MFA where appropriate.
- Add scheduled
openclaw security audit --deep.
Confirm exact action before applying.

When the user wants to audit, review, or diagnose SEO issues on their site. Also use when the user mentions "SEO audit," "technical SEO," "why am I not ranking," "SEO issues," "on-page SEO," "meta tags review," "SEO health check," "my traffic dropped," "lost rankings," "not showing up in Google," "site isn't ranking," "Google update hit me," "page speed," "core web vitals," "crawl errors," "indexing issues," "stuck on page 2," "striking distance keywords," "title tag rewrite," "low CTR," "local SEO," "Google Business Profile," or "map pack." Use this even if the user just says something vague like "my SEO is bad" or "help with SEO" — start with an audit. For building pages at scale to target keywords, see programmatic-seo. For adding structured data, see schema. For AI search optimization, see ai-seo.
firebase-security-rules-auditor
firebase/agent-skills
Audits Firebase (Firestore, Cloud Storage) security rules for vulnerabilities, privilege escalation, role bypasses, create vs update inconsistencies, resource exhaustion, type safety, size limits, and hasOnly ownership checks. Use when auditing/reviewing rules, running red-team rule assessments, or scoring against auditor checklists. Don't use for Firebase CLI (login, deploy), Auth, Crashlytics, Remote Config, or database queries.
audit

Run technical quality checks across accessibility, performance, theming, responsive design, and anti-patterns. Generates a scored report with P0-P3 severity ratings and actionable plan. Use when the user wants an accessibility check, performance audit, or technical quality review.
competitors
coreyhaines31/marketingskills
When the user wants to create competitor comparison or alternative pages for SEO and buyer-facing use. Also use when the user mentions 'alternative page,' 'vs page,' 'competitor comparison,' 'comparison page,' '[Product] vs [Product],' '[Product] alternative,' 'competitive landing pages,' 'how do we compare to X,' 'competitor teardown,' 'audit our competitor pages,' 'are our comparison pages out of date,' or 'competitive asset audit.' Use this for any content that positions your product against competitors. Covers four formats: singular alternative, plural alternatives, you vs competitor, and competitor vs competitor. For auditing existing claims (not researching competitors from scratch, which is competitor-profiling; not technical SEO on these pages, which is seo-audit), use the asset audit here. For internal battle cards and sales-specific competitor docs, see sales-enablement.
