metaskillbase

metaskillbase is a skill for Claude Code, Codex from leionion/ClawForge. It costs 40 tokens per session (638 once invoked), scanned A, original, Apache-2.0.

A tool for breaking a natural-language request into smaller, specific skills that can be run separately or handed to OpenClaw, an automation system.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it to decompose requests such as backing up chat memory, testing a trading strategy, or organizing files, then list the resulting skills or run supported standalone ones.
Why use it?
It helps decide which capability is needed when a request contains several steps or is too broad to route directly.

Token cost

What it costs to keep this loaded

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.

Security

Grade A, and why

metaskillbase 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 5d 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.

OpenClaw Skill Forge — Demand Decomposition for OpenClaw

When a user describes what they want in natural language, use OpenClaw Skill Forge to decompose the demand into atomic meta skills, then execute or hand off.

When to Use

  • User says: "backup my chat memory", "run a backtest on my data", "organize my files"
  • Multi-step or ambiguous demands that need skill mapping
  • Before executing—decompose first to route correctly

How It Works

  1. Decompose: Call OpenClaw Skill Forge Cutter with the user's demand.
  2. Skills returned: e.g. memory_backup, strategy_backtest, file_copy, etc.
  3. Runnable standalone: memory_backup, strategy_backtest run via metaskill CLI.
  4. Needs OpenClaw: Mac HCI, device, other skills—use OpenClaw's native skills.

Usage

CLI (recommended)

# Install: pip install -e /path/to/ClawForge
metaskill "backup my chat memory"
metaskill "run backtest on trading data" --decompose-only
metaskill --list

Python API

from core.cutter import CutterEngine
result = CutterEngine().process("backup my chat memory")
# result["decomposed"] → [{"skill": "memory_backup", "confidence": 0.8, ...}]

LLM Decomposition (optional)

Set CHUTES_API_KEY in .env and use --model chutes for smarter decomposition.

Cutter Keywords

Demand phrase Skill
backup my, chat memory, memory backup memory_backup
backtest, trading strategy, quantitative strategy_backtest
file copy, move, delete file_copy, file_move, file_delete
open app, close app open_app, close_app
screenshot, brightness, volume screenshot, brightness, volume
... see Skill-Index.md

Installation

cd ClawForge
pip install -e .

# Install into OpenClaw workspace (or run ./scripts/setup_openclaw.sh)
cp -r openclaw-skill ~/.openclaw/workspace/skills/metaskillbase

Permissions

  • filesystem: For memory_backup, strategy_backtest (read/write CSVs, backups)
  • network: Optional for strategy_backtest (data fetch), GPT decomposition
  • shell: Run metaskill CLI from OpenClaw

Changes

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.
