Progress Reporter

Automatically reports task progress every 10 minutes during execution, including current status, recent work, overall progress, and next steps.

Security Scan

The skill's files and runtime instructions are coherent with its stated purpose (periodic local progress reports); it reads local task files and writes markdown reports, with no network exfiltration or unrelated credential requests.

Purpose & Capability

Name/description match implementation: a cron-invoked shell script scans workspace running task JSON/logs and writes progress reports into tasks/ and memory/ directories. The requested files and behavior are proportional to a local progress-reporter.

Instruction Scope

SKILL.md instructs adding a crontab entry to run the included report.sh every 10 minutes and documents the output paths. The script reads /root/.openclaw/workspace/tasks/running/*.json and associated .log files and writes reports under the workspace. This is expected for the stated purpose, but installing the cron entry and the provided absolute /root path are environment-sensitive and require appropriate privileges.

Install Mechanism

No install spec or network downloads — instruction-only with an included script. Nothing is pulled from external URLs and no archives are extracted.

Credentials

The skill requires no environment variables or credentials. It reads local workspace files (task JSONs and logs) which are necessary for generating progress reports. No unrelated credentials or external service tokens are requested.

Persistence & Privilege

always is false and the skill does not modify other skills. However, SKILL.md instructs editing crontab to schedule the script, which grants persistent execution — the user must consciously install that cron entry (it is not automated). The suggested cron uses an absolute /root path, so installing it as root will run the reporter as root; that requires user attention.

Assessment

This skill appears to do what it says: periodically scan the local OpenClaw workspace for a running task and write human-readable progress reports into workspace directories. Before installing, check these points: 1) Cron/privileges: SKILL.md asks you to add a crontab entry for /root/.openclaw/..., which requires the user account that adds the cron job to have access to that path — if you install the cron as root it will run with root privileges. Only add the cron if you intend that persistence and privilege level. 2) Workspace paths: the script reads running task JSONs and .log files and writes markdown files under tasks/ and memory/. Ensure those directories contain only data you expect to be read and written locally. 3) No network exfiltration: the script does not make network calls or require credentials, but it will create report files that might be read by other processes — ensure those reports won't be forwarded to external services unless you want that. 4) Dependencies & portability: the script uses common POSIX utilities; jq is used to extract the task field but the script tolerates its absence. If your environment differs (non-root home, different workspace path), edit SKILL.md/report.sh to point to the correct workspace and verify cron user. 5) Logs and retention: the script produces files every run (every 10 minutes if you enable cron); consider log/retention policies to avoid storage growth. If you want tighter guarantees (no persistent cron, different paths, or reduced privilege), modify the crontab instruction and the script before enabling.
