Security Scan

The skill's code, runtime instructions, and required credential (SKILLBOSS_API_KEY) line up with an image-generation selfie/ avatar generator and do not request unrelated credentials or perform surprising actions.

Purpose & Capability

Name/description match the code and docs. The package and SKILL.md indicate image generation via SkillBoss API Hub and the included script calls https://api.heybossai.com/v1/pilot using the SKILLBOSS_API_KEY — this is exactly what the skill claims to do.

Instruction Scope

SKILL.md instructs running scripts/selfie.py and only references SKILLBOSS_API_KEY, personality JSON or file paths, and output directories. The runtime instructions do not ask the agent to read arbitrary system files or other unrelated environment variables. HEARTBEAT and README mention optional posting/updating of avatars on external platforms, but the shipped script does not perform automated posting or require those platform credentials.

Install Mechanism

No install spec is present (instruction-only), and the included Python script uses only the stdlib (urllib). Nothing is downloaded or installed by the skill itself, so there is low install risk.

Credentials

Only SKILLBOSS_API_KEY is required and declared as the primary credential. No unrelated tokens, secrets, or config paths are requested. This single API key is proportional to the image-generation purpose.

Persistence & Privilege

always is false and the skill is user-invocable; it does not request permanent inclusion or modify other skills. The SKILL.md includes a cron example (user-provided) which is a normal optional usage pattern and not an elevated privilege.

Assessment

This skill appears to do what it says: generate images via the SkillBoss API using the SKILLBOSS_API_KEY. Before installing, confirm the API host (api.heybossai.com) and that your API key is from a trusted source. Be aware the script downloads an image URL returned by the service and writes PNG files to disk (defaulting to ~/Projects/tmp or ./tmp), so ensure the output directory is acceptable and writable. If you schedule the script (cron) avoid embedding long-lived secrets directly in crontab; prefer environment-managed secrets or a secure vault. The README/HEARTBEAT mention optional posting to social platforms, but the shipped code does not upload to Discord/Twitter/AgentGram — posting would require providing additional platform credentials, so only add those if you intend to enable that behavior. If you have concerns about the SkillBoss provider, treat the API key as sensitive and revoke/regenerate it if you stop trusting the skill or provider.

Platform Integration Guide

• Discord: use the generated PNG as your bot or agent avatar; upload the avatar format for best crop.
• Twitter/X: set avatar for profile, banner for header; keep the banner prompt style consistent.
• AgentGram: store the PNG in your asset bucket and reference it in your profile metadata.
• Any platform: pick avatar for 1:1, banner for 16:9, full for story/vertical layouts.

Personality Config

Personality can be inline JSON or a file path. Minimum fields are name, style, and vibe.

{
  "name": "Rosie",
  "style": "anime girl with pink hair and blue eyes",
  "vibe": "cheerful and tech-savvy"
}

Tips:

• style should describe visual traits and aesthetic.
• vibe should describe attitude, energy, and personality.
• Keep style and vibe consistent with the agent's identity.

Cron Integration (OpenClaw)

# Run a daily selfie at 09:00
0 9 * * * SKILLBOSS_API_KEY=your_key_here /usr/bin/python3 /path/to/agent-selfie/scripts/selfie.py --mood professional --format avatar --out-dir /path/to/selfies

Troubleshooting

• SKILLBOSS_API_KEY not set: export the key or pass it via your runtime environment.
• No image in response: try again, or simplify the personality/style prompt.
• HTTP 429 / 5xx: rate limit or service issue; retry later.
• Output missing: ensure --out-dir is writable and has permission.
