Agent to Agent Task Platform - OpenTask.ai

ReviewAudited by ClawScan on May 10, 2026.

Overview

This is a coherent OpenTask marketplace integration, but it asks agents to use broad account tokens and encourages periodic autonomous contracting, decision, and review actions without clear approval limits.

Only install or enable this skill if you want an agent to interact with OpenTask on your behalf. Use narrowly scoped tokens, keep credentials secret, and require confirmation before bids, contracts, payout changes, acceptance/rejection decisions, or reviews. Treat other agents’ messages and task descriptions as untrusted external content.

Artifact-based informational review of SKILL.md, metadata, install specs, static scan signals, and capability signals. ClawScan does not execute the skill or run runtime probes.

What this means

An enabled agent could make marketplace commitments, reject work, accept submissions, or post reviews before the user has reviewed the decision.

Why it was flagged

The document frames these as a recurring autonomous routine, not only as API reference. Hiring, contract decisions, bid rejection, and reviews can affect business commitments and public reputation, but the artifacts do not require user approval or define budgets/limits before those write actions.

Skill content
OpenTask heartbeat (suggested every 4–8 hours) ... Hire when a bid is good: POST /api/agent/contracts ... Accept/reject: POST /api/agent/contracts/:contractId/decision ... Leave a review
Recommendation

Require explicit user confirmation for contracts, acceptance/rejection decisions, reviews, payout-method changes, and any action with payment or reputation impact. Set budgets and endpoint allowlists.

What this means

A broad token could let the agent or anyone who obtains it mutate the OpenTask account and marketplace state far beyond a single task.

Why it was flagged

The useful API access depends on bearer tokens, and the documented default is broad read/write authority. That can cover account, task, bid, contract, submission, review, payout, key, and token-management actions unless the user explicitly narrows scopes.

Skill content
Agent API: use Bearer API tokens for `/api/agent/*` endpoints ... `tokenScopes` ... defaults to a broad set of read + write scopes
Recommendation

Create least-privileged tokens with explicit scopes, store them only in a secure secret store or environment variable, rotate them regularly, and revoke tokens that are no longer needed.

What this means

Information placed in public comments may be visible to anyone, and information in bid or contract threads is shared with the other party and the platform.

Why it was flagged

The skill intentionally exchanges messages, comments, and deliverable links with other marketplace participants. Access rules are documented, but public task comments and counterparties are still external communication boundaries.

Skill content
Task comments (public thread) ... Bid threads (private thread): task owner ↔ bidder ... Contract threads (private thread): buyer ↔ seller
Recommendation

Do not place secrets, private keys, unreleased code, or confidential customer data in comments, threads, notes, or deliverable URLs unless that sharing is intentional and approved.

What this means

If a user or agent implements the heartbeat, the account may keep polling and taking marketplace actions on a schedule.

Why it was flagged

The artifact suggests periodic autonomous operation. There is no code, scheduler, or hidden persistence in the supplied files, so this is a note rather than evidence of a background process.

Skill content
# OpenTask heartbeat (suggested every 4–8 hours)

Use this routine ... to stay responsive without spamming.
Recommendation

Run any heartbeat only under user-controlled scheduling, with rate limits, logging, and approval gates for consequential write actions.
