Getting it into your agent
One page per mod, every tool's command on it. A separate URL per tool would split the same page into five that compete with each other.

Counted locally with the o200k_base tokenizer, which is exact for GPT models; Claude uses its own tokenizer and its counts differ. Treat this as one consistent yardstick across the catalogue rather than a bill. Prices are per million input tokens.
| Model | Per session | Once invoked |
|---|---|---|
| Fable 5.1 | $0.00098 | $0.00693 |
| Opus 5 | $0.00049 | $0.00347 |
| Sonnet 5 | $0.00020 | $0.00139 |
| Haiku 4.5 | $0.00010 | $0.00069 |
Grade A, and why
dependency-tracker scanned grade A with 0 findings against 26 rules in 11 categories — prompt injection, anti-refusal, data exfiltration, privilege escalation, supply chain, agent snooping, system-prompt leakage, SSRF and excessive agency — measured 6d ago.
A static scan of the body, not an audit. Every finding is printed with the line that produced it so you can judge whether it matters here. A mod is markdown that instructs an agent; that is exactly why what it instructs is worth reading.
Nothing flagged
None of the 26 patterns this scan looks for appear in this file: no shell pipes, no recursive deletes, no credential paths, no hidden text, no instruction-override or anti-refusal phrasing, no agent-config snooping. That is not a guarantee, it is the absence of the things that are checkable.
How it starts
The opening of the file, as written. The whole thing — 81 lines — stays where its author put it; the contents beside it link to each section on GitHub.
Dependency Tracker
Track version drift across all OpenClaw dependencies. Detect updates, generate reports, notify Boss.
Quick Start
# 1. Scan — build/refresh the local manifest
python3 scripts/scan.py
# 2. Check — compare local vs remote versions
python3 scripts/check.py
# 3. Report — generate human-readable Markdown report
python3 scripts/report.py
All scripts are in the skill directory: ~/.openclaw/workspace/skills/dependency-tracker/scripts/
What It Tracks
| Category | Source | Detection Method |
|---|---|---|
| Managed skills (GitHub) | .skill-lock.json |
GitHub Contents API (git hash compare) |
| Managed skills (ClewHub) | _meta.json |
ClewHub API (version compare) |
| Bundled skills | /app/skills/ |
Tied to OpenClaw version |
| Workspace skills | workspace/skills/ |
Local git (self-managed) |
| OpenClaw version | npm registry + GitHub | npm view / GitHub Releases API |
| npm dependencies | /app/node_modules/ |
npm outdated |
| pip packages | system Python | pip3 list --outdated |
| CLI tools | PATH | Version commands |
Workflow
On-Demand Check
When user asks to check dependencies:
- Run
scan.pyto refresh the manifest - Run
check.pyto compare against remote sources - Run
report.pyto generate the report - Send report summary to user (Telegram)
- If unknown-source skills found, notify Boss
Scheduled Check (Cron)
Set up a weekly cron job:
- Run all three scripts in sequence
- Push report summary to Telegram
- Only notify if updates are found or errors occur
Data Files
All runtime data lives in data/ (gitignored from backup):
data/
├── manifest.json # Full dependency inventory
├── check-results.json # Latest check results
└── reports/
└── YYYY-MM-DD-report.md # Generated reports
Key Design Decisions
- No auto-update: Only detect and report. User decides when to update.
- GitHub hash comparison: Uses
git hash-objectlocally vs GitHub Contents API SHA — exact match, no false positives. - Lock file as source of truth:
.skill-lock.json(OpenClaw's managed skill registry) provides repo URLs and install metadata. - Changelog extraction: For GitHub skills with updates, fetches recent commits for context.
- Unknown source notification: Skills without traceable source are flagged and reported to Boss.
What ships with it
4 files beside SKILL.md in the same directory: the scripts, references and assets a skill reads on demand. Not counted in the per-session cost; read them before you install if any of them is executable.
What this file has done since we first saw it
Hashed on every crawl. A supply-chain change to an agent config is a question of when, not whether, so the history is kept rather than the latest state alone.

dependency-tracker is a skill published in the GitHub repository blessonism/openclaw-skills (55 stars, last pushed 5mo ago), licensed MIT. It adds 98 tokens to every session and 693 once invoked, about $0.0005 per session on Opus 5. A static security scan graded it A with 0 findings. No closer match exists in the catalogue, so it is treated as the original; first seen 2026-08-30.
