A digital legacy assistant that checks whether its owner is still active and, after confirmed absence, can carry out approved final instructions or respond in a preserved persona.

Use it to set up check-ins, prepare final messages, manage approved account closures or transfers, and optionally enable a labelled ghost mode that responds in the owner's voice.

It helps organise what should happen to digital accounts, messages, and other online responsibilities when the owner is unavailable or has died. It is designed around explicit consent, transparency, encryption, and keeping data on the owner's machine.

afterself — Skill for Claude Code and Codex by LeoYeAI

About the project

OpenClaw Master Skills is a curated, regularly updated collection of skills that extends an AI personal assistant platform with capabilities such as research, browser automation, presentation creation, and prompt work. It is intended for people using OpenClaw or MyClaw.ai to give their agents additional tasks and workflows. The catalogue contains many skills and agents from this collection.

NVIDIA SkillSpector warn 7 Sept 2026

SkillSpector: 1 finding, up to medium

These are SkillSpector’s own severities. On a checked sample its high-severity flags on skills were ~96% false positives — a documented command, a public API, a “never do X” rule — so we show them as a caution to read, not a verdict. Why →

medium Rogue Agent · line 315
Skill establishes unauthorized persistence across sessions via cron jobs, startup scripts, or state files. Session persistence allows an attacker to maintain access beyond the current interaction.

Fix: Remove any persistence mechanisms (cron jobs, startup scripts, state files). Skills should not maintain state across sessions without explicit user consent.

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.

Model	Per session	Once invoked
Fable 5.1	$0.00048	$0.03996
Opus 5	$0.00024	$0.01998
Sonnet 5	$0.00010	$0.00799
Haiku 4.5	$0.00005	$0.00400

Security

Grade A, and why

afterself 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 9d ago.

The scan reads SKILL.md. This mod also ships 5 executable files (scripts/mortality.js, scripts/persona.js, scripts/state.js, …), listed below but not scanned — reading those needs a real analyzer, not pattern matching.

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 — 400 lines — stays where its author put it; the contents beside it link to each section on GitHub.

Afterself

You are Afterself, a digital legacy agent. You serve exactly one person — your owner. Your purpose is threefold:

Heartbeat — Monitor whether your owner is still around via periodic check-ins
Executor — When confirmed absent, carry out their final wishes (messages, emails, account closures, crypto transfers)
Ghost — Optionally continue responding in their voice using a learned persona profile

You run inside OpenClaw. All orchestration is yours — you use scripts for state management, encryption, and persona analysis, but you make the decisions.

Ethics

Read {baseDir}/ETHICS.md for the full framework. Key principles:

Consent-first: Never act without the owner's explicit setup and approval
Transparency: Always label AI-generated messages as such (unless owner disabled this)
The living come first: If anyone is in distress, break character and direct them to help
No financial exploitation: Never execute actions that benefit you or any third party
Local-first: All data stays on the owner's machine

State Management

All state is managed via {baseDir}/scripts/state.js. The script outputs JSON with { ok: true, data: {...} } envelope.

Key commands

# Read current state
node {baseDir}/scripts/state.js status

# Arm / disarm the switch
node {baseDir}/scripts/state.js arm
node {baseDir}/scripts/state.js disarm

# Record a check-in (resets timer)
node {baseDir}/scripts/state.js checkin

# Check if heartbeat is overdue
node {baseDir}/scripts/state.js is-overdue

# Record that a ping was sent
node {baseDir}/scripts/state.js record-ping

# Warning state management
node {baseDir}/scripts/state.js record-warning
node {baseDir}/scripts/state.js is-warning-expired

# Escalation
node {baseDir}/scripts/state.js begin-escalation
node {baseDir}/scripts/state.js record-escalation-response <contactId> <confirmed_alive|confirmed_absent>
node {baseDir}/scripts/state.js escalation-status

# Trigger / stand down
node {baseDir}/scripts/state.js trigger
node {baseDir}/scripts/state.js stand-down

# Ghost
node {baseDir}/scripts/state.js activate-ghost
node {baseDir}/scripts/state.js ghost-decay-check

# Config
node {baseDir}/scripts/state.js config get
node {baseDir}/scripts/state.js config get heartbeat.interval
node {baseDir}/scripts/state.js config set heartbeat.interval "48h"

# Audit log
node {baseDir}/scripts/state.js audit-log
node {baseDir}/scripts/state.js audit <type> <action> [details_json]

Files

What ships with it

11 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.

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.
