OpenClaw is an AI assistant that runs on a user's own devices and connects to chat services such as Discord, Slack, Telegram, and WhatsApp. Individuals or teams use it for assistant tasks while keeping its state, memory, and credentials on their hardware and choosing the models or agent harnesses it uses. The catalogue entries are skills, agents, instructions, hooks, and settings that define or extend OpenClaw's workflow.
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.

SkillSpector: 3 findings, up to high
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 →

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 | $0.00033 | $0.00587 |
| Opus 5.5 | $0.00013 | $0.00235 |
| Sonnet 5.5 | $0.00007 | $0.00117 |
| Haiku 4.5 | $0.00003 | $0.00059 |
Grade A, and why
openai-whisper-api scanned grade A with 1 finding 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 1mo 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.

Not a fault in itself. Listed so you know the mod talks to something, and to what.
description: "OpenAI Audio Transcriptions API via curl; gpt-4o-transcribe, mini, diarize, or whisper-1." What it actually says
OpenAI transcriptions API
Transcribe audio through /v1/audio/transcriptions. Set OPENAI_BASE_URL for an OpenAI-compatible proxy or local gateway.
Quick start
{baseDir}/scripts/transcribe.sh /path/to/audio.m4a
Defaults:
- Model:
gpt-4o-transcribe - Output:
<input>.txt
Useful flags
{baseDir}/scripts/transcribe.sh /path/to/audio.ogg --model gpt-4o-transcribe --out /tmp/transcript.txt
{baseDir}/scripts/transcribe.sh /path/to/audio.ogg --model gpt-4o-mini-transcribe
{baseDir}/scripts/transcribe.sh /path/to/audio.ogg --model gpt-4o-transcribe-diarize --json
{baseDir}/scripts/transcribe.sh /path/to/audio.ogg --model whisper-1
{baseDir}/scripts/transcribe.sh /path/to/audio.m4a --language en
{baseDir}/scripts/transcribe.sh /path/to/audio.m4a --prompt "Speaker names: Peter, Daniel"
{baseDir}/scripts/transcribe.sh /path/to/audio.m4a --json --out /tmp/transcript.json
Notes:
- Supported upload formats include
mp3,mp4,mpeg,mpga,m4a,wav,webm. - 25 MB upload limit on the hosted API.
- Use diarize for speaker labels; script sends
chunking_strategy=autoand rejects--prompt.
API key
Set OPENAI_API_KEY, or configure it in the active OpenClaw config file ($OPENCLAW_CONFIG_PATH, default ~/.openclaw/openclaw.json). Optionally set OPENAI_BASE_URL:
{
skills: {
"openai-whisper-api": {
apiKey: "OPENAI_KEY_HERE",
},
},
}
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.
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.

openai-whisper-api is a skill published in the GitHub repository openclaw/openclaw (392,886 stars, last pushed today), licensed MIT.
