What is Review Skill?

The review-skill provides an automated, programmatic framework to evaluate pull requests adding or modifying Openclaw Skills. By checking structural specifications, metadata design quality, and ecosystem-wide marketplace compliance, it prevents regression and guarantees that newly submitted skills parse seamlessly.

Operating with a strict verification protocol, this skill enforces a tiered severity calibration system. It removes human bias by categorizing violations with explicit confidence levels, enabling continuous integration pipelines to mechanically block problematic merges before they impact production environments.

Review Skill Use Cases

  • Automated CI/CD Quality Gates: Run automated assessments during git pull request pipelines to verify submitted skills.
  • Ecosystem Manifest Auditing: Scan existing repository structures for outdated paths, formatting anomalies, or naming collisions.
  • Pre-publication Validation: Execute comprehensive local evaluations prior to pushing new open-source contributions to the shared registry.

How Review Skill Works

  1. Parse Arguments: Extract the targets and optional configurations from the provided arguments, falling back to a default output path and the main branch if unspecified.
  2. Identify Changed Skills: Execute git diff comparisons against the base branch to filter out unchanged files and target specific skill directories.
  3. Read Files End-to-End: Ingest the complete SKILL.md documentation, underlying script resources, and corresponding marketplace manifests.
  4. Run Validation Multi-Pass: Evaluate the files through sequentially layered structural, design, and marketplace verification protocols.
  5. Compile Verified Output: Aggregate all confirmed structural findings into a formatted markdown ledger complete with explicit line numbers, impact explanations, and a definitive readiness verdict.

Review Skill Setup

Integrate the review-skill directly into your environment using the command line:

# Run the review skill against your modified workspace
openclaw run review-skill --arguments ".review-output.md" --base "main"

Review Skill Data Schema & Taxonomy

The skill generates an output markdown ledger cataloging all system validations categorized by rigorous operational thresholds:

Severity Level Focus Areas Merge Impact
Critical Missing or malformed YAML frontmatter, name collisions, or file length exceeding 500 lines Blocks Approval
Major Incorrect casing formats, overly vague description components, or nested references Blocks Approval
Minor Hardcoded temporal dates, inconsistent taxonomy, or missing local cross-references Informational Only
Informational Potential trigger phrase overlaps or non-standard interactive scripting hints Informational Only

Review Skill Advanced Features

  • Verification Protocol Guardrails: Cross-references findings with standard verification policies to completely strip away subjective style preferences and maintain deterministic evaluation.
  • Subsequent Re-Review Safeguards: Implements strict iterative pass boundaries designed to focus only on checking prior failures while preventing discovery creep.
  • Confidence-Scored Metadata: Attaches high or medium diagnostic confidence metrics to every tracked issue based on whether the parameter is mechanically or subjectively verified.
