What is Vault?
Vault is a robust local research orchestration and state management tool designed to enhance the capabilities of AI agents. By utilizing a local SQLite database, it allows users to manage complex, long-running research projects without incurring external costs or relying on cloud-based storage. As a specialized component within the Openclaw Skills ecosystem, Vault ensures that every research event is tracked with precision, including confidence scores and source attribution.
This skill is particularly valuable for developers who need a reliable way to start projects, log incremental progress, and eventually export their findings into structured formats. By keeping the orchestration engine local, it provides a high degree of privacy and performance, making it an essential utility for high-stakes research environments.
Vault Use Cases
- Managing state for long-running research projects that require persistent tracking.
- Consolidating multi-source research data while maintaining secure SSRF protection.
- Generating automated project summaries and status reports for complex objectives.
- Exporting organized research data into Markdown for documentation or reporting.
How Vault Works
- Initialize a Project: Create a unique research context by defining a project ID and a high-level objective.
- Multi-Source Ingestion: Use the unified scuttle command to gather data from various URLs, ensuring secure access through built-in SSRF protection.
- Continuous Monitoring: Track the research lifecycle by querying the local database for status updates and automated summaries.
- Result Exportation: Finalize the research by exporting the collected data into a structured Markdown file for external use.
Vault Setup
Vault is designed to work out of the box with minimal configuration. It utilizes a local SQLite database stored at ~/.researchvault/ by default.
# Initialize a new research project
python3 scripts/vault.py init --id "proj-v1" --objective "Define your research goal"
# (Optional) Customize the database location
export RESEARCHVAULT_DB="/path/to/your/custom/vault.db"
Vault Data Schema & Taxonomy
Vault organizes all research data within a local SQLite database, focusing on two primary entities: Projects and Instrumentation events. This structure is ideal for users integrating Openclaw Skills into their data-heavy workflows.
| Feature | Details |
|---|---|
| Storage | Local SQLite database (~/.researchvault/) |
| Project Metadata | ID, Objective, Start Time |
| Instrumentation | Confidence Score (0.0-1.0), Source URL, Custom Tags |
| Persistence | Local-only; database files are excluded from version control |
Vault Advanced Features
- SSRF protection for secure web-based research gathering.
- Granular confidence scoring for every data point tracked within the vault.
- Support for configurable database paths via environment variables to suit different Openclaw Skills environments.
- Multi-format export capabilities allowing research to be moved into various documentation frameworks.
