What it does

Medical Entity Extractor is an agent skill from FreedomIntelligence/OpenClaw-Medical-Skills. Extract medical entities (symptoms, medications, lab values, diagnoses) from patient messages.

Its SKILL.md is about 970 tokens, which your agent loads only when the skill is triggered. The skill folder holds 1 other file (for example `_meta.json`).

The repository describes itself as: The largest open-source medical AI skills library for OpenClaw🦞. The licence is MIT.

Example prompts

“/medical-entity-extractor”

Workflow steps

6 steps, taken from the first numbered list in SKILL.md.

Symptom Extraction: Identifies symptoms, severity, duration, and progression
Medication Extraction: Finds medication names, dosages, frequencies, and side effects
Lab Value Extraction: Parses lab results, vital signs, and measurements
Diagnosis Extraction: Identifies mentioned diagnoses and conditions
Temporal Extraction: Captures when symptoms started, how long they've lasted
Action Items: Identifies requested actions (appointments, refills, questions)

What it can do on your machine

Read from SKILL.md and the folder at commit b1f9b6e. It shows what the files ask for, not the result of running them.

Tool permissions
Pre-approves nothing: there is no allowed-tools line, so your agent's usual permission prompts apply.
From allowed-tools in the SKILL.md frontmatter.
Runs code
No scripts in the folder and no shell commands in SKILL.md (its code samples are json, bash and typescript).
From the folder's file list and the shell code blocks in SKILL.md.
Network
No URLs in SKILL.md.
From URLs in SKILL.md, links to its own repository left out.
Credentials
Names no API keys, tokens, secrets or passwords.
From names ending in _API_KEY, _TOKEN, _SECRET, _KEY or _PASSWORD in SKILL.md.

Context cost

Medical Entity Extractor loads about 969 tokens when it runs. Until then it costs about 30 tokens; SKILL.md has 218 words of instructions outside code blocks.

Always · name and description, kept in context so the agent knows when to use it: ~30
When it runs · the whole SKILL.md, loaded when a task matches: ~969

Estimates: characters ÷ 4, the usual rule of thumb; real counts depend on the model's tokenizer. Scripts and assets cost tokens only if the agent reads them.

Safety

Auto-check passed

The automated check found no risky patterns in SKILL.md.

Automated static check — not a guarantee. Review scripts before installing. It scans the text of SKILL.md for risky patterns (piping downloads into a shell, reading credential files, hidden Unicode, destructive commands); files beside SKILL.md are not scanned.

Medical Terminology Handling

The skill recognizes:

Common abbreviations (BP, HR, RR, O2 sat, etc.)
Brand and generic medication names
Lay terms for medical conditions ("sugar" → diabetes, "heart attack" → MI)
Temporal expressions ("since yesterday", "for the past week")

Integration

This skill can be invoked via the OpenClaw CLI:

bash

openclaw skill run medical-entity-extractor --input '[{"id":"msg-1","priority_score":78,...}]' --json

Or programmatically:

typescript

const result = await execFileAsync('openclaw', [
  'skill', 'run', 'medical-entity-extractor',
  '--input', JSON.stringify(scoredMessages),
  '--json'
]);

Recommended Model: Claude Sonnet 4.5 (openclaw models set anthropic/claude-sonnet-4-5)

Privacy & Security

All processing happens locally via OpenClaw
No data is sent to external services (except Claude API for LLM processing)
Extracted entities remain in your local environment
