What is Computer Efficiency Skill?
The Computer Efficiency Skill is a high-performance, cross-platform system utility designed to evaluate machine health, diagnose hardware performance bottlenecks, and safely reclaim storage space. Compatible with macOS, Windows, and Linux, it serves as an intelligent diagnostic assistant that interacts natively with target operating systems to poll CPU, memory, storage, temperature, and battery life parameters. By employing this tool within Openclaw Skills, developers and administrators can maintain a lightweight, fast, and healthy workspace through a single unified interface.
To prevent unintentional data loss or accidental process disruptions, the skill is engineered with robust security guardrails. While diagnostics, resource mapping, and reporting run continuously in a read-only fashion, potentially destructive actions—such as cache cleanups and memory optimization processes—require strict, explicit confirmation. It combines automated diagnostics with safe, user-authorized actions to deliver a secure administrative workflow.
Computer Efficiency Skill Use Cases
- Diagnosing system performance bottlenecks across macOS, Linux, and Windows machines using native system commands.
- Safely cleaning application cache directories, system logs, and temporary paths while ensuring high-risk system files remain untouched.
- Identifying memory-intensive operations and safely terminating resource-heavy applications after a safety confirmation check.
- Scheduling routine system health checkups and automatic diagnostic reports using integrated cron capabilities.
- Triggering immediate visual notifications and warnings when system resources cross critical thresholds (such as CPU, memory, or battery).
How Computer Efficiency Skill Works
- Platform Auto-Detection: The skill queries the environment via native commands (e.g.,
uname -s) to identify whether the host is macOS, Windows, or Linux. - System Diagnostic Queries: Once the platform is identified, the skill executes platform-specific scripts (
top,vm_stat,free,Get-Counter, orGet-WmiObject) to collect runtime hardware statistics. - Health Score Calculation: It parses raw statistics and generates a weighted score out of 100 based on CPU load, memory availability, disk capacity, temperature, and battery life.
- Safe Isolation Scanning: High-risk directories are omitted while safe locations (such as system logs or temporary directories) are scanned for redundant files.
- Explicit Confirmation & Safety Handshake: The skill presents a clear, detailed preview of proposed actions and pauses until the user gives explicit consent (e.g., 'Confirm' or 'Execute').
- Backup and Execution: Upon receiving user authorization, it moves target cleanup files to a dedicated, timestamped recovery directory, runs the cleanup, and outputs a complete final summary report.
Computer Efficiency Skill Setup
Get started with the Computer Efficiency Skill as part of your collection of Openclaw Skills by following the installation and setup steps below.
Prerequisites
This skill depends on core utilities for reporting and automated checking. Ensure you install the dependencies first:
openclaw install qclaw-text-file
openclaw install qclaw-cron-skill
Installation
Install the main computer efficiency skill package directly onto your agent:
openclaw install computer-efficiency-skill
Scheduler Configuration
You can set up automated checking routines by creating or updating your scheduler configuration block:
{
"daily_check": {
"schedule": "0 9 * * *",
"content": "System Health Briefing"
},
"weekly_check": {
"schedule": "0 9 * * 1",
"content": "Detailed Optimization Suggestions"
}
}
Computer Efficiency Skill Data Schema & Taxonomy
The Computer Efficiency Skill processes resource metrics and directory targets using standard taxonomies:
1. Performance Scoring Rules (100-Point Scale)
| Metric | Weight | Scoring Criteria |
|---|---|---|
| CPU Load | 20% | <3: 20 pts | <5: 15 pts | <8: 10 pts | >8: 5 pts |
| Free Memory | 25% | >70%: 25 pts | >50%: 20 pts | >30%: 15 pts | <30%: 10 pts |
| Disk Space | 20% | <50%: 20 pts | <70%: 15 pts | <85%: 10 pts | >85%: 5 pts |
| Battery Health | 15% | >50%: 15 pts | >20%: 10 pts | <20%: 5 pts |
| System Temperature | 10% | <70°C: 10 pts | <80°C: 7 pts | <90°C: 5 pts | >90°C: 3 pts |
| Process Health | 10% | Normal: 10 pts | Abnormal: 5 pts |
2. Cleanup Target Path and Risk Matrix
| Target Directory | macOS Path | Windows Path | Linux Path | Risk Assessment |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| App Cache | ~/Library/Caches/ |
%LOCALAPPDATA%\Temp\ |
~/.cache/ |
Safe (Green) |
| System Logs | ~/Library/Logs/ |
%PROGRAMDATA%\Logs\ |
/var/log/ |
Safe (Green) |
| Temp Files | /tmp/ |
%TEMP%\ |
/tmp/ |
Warning (Yellow) |
| Browser History | - | - | - | Do Not Clean (Red) |
| System Cache | /System/Library/Caches/ |
C:\Windows\Temp\ |
/var/cache/ |
Do Not Clean (Red) |
Computer Efficiency Skill Advanced Features
- Strict Non-Ambiguity Validation: Prevents execution when receiving casual, ambiguous confirmations like 'OK' or 'Sure'. It demands explicit inputs like 'Confirm' or 'Execute' before modifying files.
- Automatic Failure-Safe Backup: Saves all targeted files to an isolated backup directory (
~/.trash/backup_YYYYMMDD/) prior to execution to allow rapid, pain-free recovery. - Customizable Alerting Limits: Features configurable trigger rules (e.g., alert when CPU > 80%, Memory > 90%, Disk < 10%, or Battery < 20%) to notify administrators before systems crash.
- Read-Only Automated Operations: Conducts diagnostics, generates graphs, lists memory usage, and updates performance reports autonomously without needing constant manual approval.
