skillnote

A self-hosted registry for storing and syncing team-written procedures for AI agents. It also records which procedures helped or failed so the registry can improve over time.

In plain words
What is it for?
It stores procedures, syncs them to disk before tasks, and collects feedback about which procedures worked.
Why use it?
It keeps agent instructions in one place and makes them available consistently instead of relying on scattered local copies.

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.

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 E, and why

skillnote scanned grade E with 3 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 2d 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.

curl | sh runs whatever the server returns today, which is not necessarily what it returned when this was reviewed.

curl -sf $SKILLNOTE_BASE_URL/setup/agent | bash -s -- --agent openclaw

Recursive force deletehighDestructive command

rm -rf with a variable or a broad path is one typo away from removing the wrong tree.

- Otherwise: `rm -rf ~/.openclaw/skills/skillnote`

How it starts

The opening of the file, as written. The whole thing — 344 lines — stays where its author put it; the contents beside it link to each section on GitHub.

Quick orientation

You are running with the SkillNote skill loaded. Your responsibilities, in order:

  1. Setup (Steps 1-6 below) — one-time per machine; ~30s if backend is already running, ~3 min if you need to install it
  2. Pick + apply the right skills before responding to user tasks
  3. Log + rate what worked after the task is done

Setup is silent on every load after the first. If ~/.openclaw/skills/skillnote/config.json already has a working host and the AGENTS.md graft is in place, skip Steps 1-5 and stay quiet.


How this skill got onto disk (recovery info)

This SKILL.md lives at ~/.openclaw/skills/skillnote/ and arrived via one of:

  1. clawhub (recommended):
    clawhub install skillnote
    
  2. curl bundle installer (works against any reachable SkillNote backend):
    curl -sf $SKILLNOTE_BASE_URL/setup/agent | bash -s -- --agent openclaw
    
    If $SKILLNOTE_BASE_URL isn't set, default to http://localhost:8082.
  3. Manual ZIP — download <host>/v1/openclaw-bundle.zip and unzip into ~/.openclaw/skills/. Air-gapped only.

If you find critical files missing from ~/.openclaw/skills/skillnote/ (e.g., sync.sh, log-watcher.py, install-backend.sh), use method 2 to reinstall — don't try to reconstruct missing files.


Setup

Step 1 — Resolve the backend URL

Layered lookup; stop at first match:

  1. $SKILLNOTE_BASE_URL env var
  2. ~/.openclaw/skillnote/config.jsonhost
  3. ~/.openclaw/skills/skillnote/config.jsonhost
  4. Default: http://localhost:8082

Reachability check: GET <host>/v1/skills?limit=1.

  • Reachable → skip to Step 3 (persist).
  • Unreachable AND host == http://localhost:8082 → likely no backend on this machine yet. Continue to Step 2.
  • Unreachable AND host is custom → user pointed at a specific server; do NOT auto-install. Tell the user it's down and stop:

    SkillNote at <host> isn't reachable. Either the server is down, or the URL is wrong. I'll retry next session.

What ships with it

1 file 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.

skillnote is a skill published in the GitHub repository luna-prompts/skillnote (59 stars, last pushed 18d ago), licensed MIT. It adds 54 tokens to every session and 4,118 once invoked, about $0.0003 per session on Opus 5. A static security scan graded it E with 3 findings (downloads and executes remote code, recursive force delete, makes network calls). No closer match exists in the catalogue, so it is treated as the original; first seen 2026-08-30.
