Noverload - Knowledge Memory

Give your agent a searchable knowledge brain - semantic search, topic synthesis, and action tracking across your saved YouTube videos, articles, Reddit threads, X posts, and PDFs

Security Scan

The skill's purpose (a searchable personal knowledge store) matches the instructions, but the runtime instructions expect a personal access token and spawn an external npm package with `npx @latest` — the registry metadata omits the required credential and the install-time behavior (fetch-and-run) and write-capability options are risk-relevant and should be reviewed before installing.

Purpose & Capability

The skill name/description (personal knowledge memory, search, summaries) aligns with what the SKILL.md describes. The token-based access to a user's Noverload account is appropriate for this purpose. However, the registry metadata declares no required env vars or primary credential even though SKILL.md clearly requires an NOVERLOAD_TOKEN; that mismatch should be corrected.

Instruction Scope

SKILL.md instructs the agent to spawn an MCP helper via `npx -y noverload-mcp@latest` and to provide NOVERLOAD_TOKEN (via config). The instructions stay within the stated purpose (searching/saving your saved content), but they also describe optional write capabilities (readOnly: false) that allow the agent to save URLs, add tags, and complete action items in your external account — those are powerful actions and the user must explicitly enable them. The instructions do not ask the agent to read unrelated system files, but they do require placing a token in ~/.openclaw/openclaw.json or an env var.

Install Mechanism

There is no packaged install spec in the registry, but the skill's runtime instructs the agent to run `npx -y noverload-mcp@latest`. That will fetch and execute code from the public npm registry at runtime. Using `@latest` and `-y` means the agent will run the most recent package without an explicit pinned version or local review — this is moderate risk because arbitrary code will be downloaded and executed on demand. Prefer a pinned, reviewed release or an explicit install path.

Credentials

The skill needs a personal access token (NOVERLOAD_TOKEN) to access the user's Noverload account, which is proportionate to the described capability. But the skill metadata did not declare this required env var or a primary credential — that's an inconsistency. Also note that turning off read-only mode gives the agent write permissions to your external account, which is justified by the feature but should be enabled deliberately and with least privilege.

Persistence & Privilege

The skill is not always-enabled (always: false) and can be invoked by the user or autonomously by the agent (normal). It does not request persistent modifications to other skills or system-wide settings. The only notable privilege is the optional ability to let the agent write to your Noverload account (via readOnly:false) — that is a feature, not a hidden escalation, but it should be enabled knowingly.

What to consider before installing

This skill appears to do what it says (connect your OpenClaw agent to your Noverload account), but there are a few things to check before installing: - The SKILL.md requires a NOVERLOAD_TOKEN but the registry metadata doesn't list it — expect to provide that token in ~/.openclaw/openclaw.json or as an env var. Confirm token scope and be prepared to revoke it if needed. - The skill runs `npx -y noverload-mcp@latest` at runtime, which downloads and executes the latest package from npm. That is convenient but runs remote code without a pinned version. If you care about supply-chain risk, ask the publisher to pin a specific version or provide a vetted package, or inspect the noverload-mcp package source before allowing the skill to run. - By default the skill is read-only; only enable readOnly:false if you trust the agent's automated actions (it will be able to save URLs, add tags, and mark tasks in your Noverload account). - Confirm the privacy claims with the vendor (where data is processed and what metadata is sent). If you want extra caution, create a limited-scope token or test with a sandbox account first. Given the metadata omission and the runtime fetch-and-execute behavior, proceed only after verifying the token requirement and the npm package/version you will allow the agent to run.

Noverload - Knowledge Memory for AI Agents

Your agent can now access your entire knowledge library. Search semantically, synthesize insights across sources, and track action items from everything you've saved.

What Noverload Provides

• Semantic Search: Find content by meaning, not just keywords. Works across YouTube transcripts, articles, Reddit threads, X posts, and PDFs.
• AI Summaries: Every piece of content is processed with key insights, action items, and takeaways extracted automatically.
• Topic Synthesis: Combine insights from multiple sources to find patterns, contradictions, and connections.
• Action Tracking: Tasks extracted from content, organized by your Health, Wealth, and Relationships goals.
• Framework Extraction: Pull out methodologies, processes, and step-by-step guides from your saved content.

Setup

1. Get Your Token

1. Sign up at https://noverload.com (free tier available)
2. Go to Settings > Apps
3. Click "New Token" to create a personal access token
4. Copy the token (you won't see it again)

2. Configure OpenClaw

Add to ~/.openclaw/openclaw.json:

{
  "skills": {
    "entries": {
      "noverload": {
        "env": {
          "NOVERLOAD_TOKEN": "nv_your_token_here"
        }
      }
    }
  }
}

This skill uses MCP (Model Context Protocol) under the hood. The skill spawns the Noverload MCP server automatically via npx when activated.

Enable Saving (Optional)

By default, the skill is read-only for security. To let your agent save new content:

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "noverload": {
      "command": "npx",
      "args": ["-y", "noverload-mcp@latest"],
      "env": {
        "NOVERLOAD_CONFIG": "{\"accessToken\":\"nv_your_token\",\"readOnly\":false}"
      }
    }
  }
}

With readOnly: false, your agent can:

• Save new URLs to your library
• Add tags to content
• Mark items as swipe files
• Complete action items

3. Restart OpenClaw

The skill will be available in your next session.
