What it does
API Credentials Hygiene is an agent skill from sundial-org/awesome-openclaw-skills. Audits and hardens API credential handling (env vars, separation, rotation plan, least privilege, auditability). Use when integrating services or preparing production deployments where secrets must be managed safely.
Its SKILL.md is about 920 tokens, which your agent loads only when the skill is triggered. The skill folder holds 2 other files, including assets (for example `assets/dotenv-template.example.md`).
It sits in DevOps & Cloud, covering Deployment. It works with n8n. The repository describes itself as: Top OpenClaw skills, with the most popular and useful ones.
When your agent uses it
- Integrating services
- Preparing production deployments where secrets must be managed safely
Example prompts
- “Use the api-credentials-hygiene skill to audit and hardens API credential handling (env vars, separation, rotation plan, least privilege…”
- “/api-credentials-hygiene”
Workflow steps
7 steps, taken from the first numbered list in SKILL.md.
- Inventory credentials
- Define separation
- Move secrets to env vars / secret manager references
- Least privilege
- Rotation plan
- Auditability
- STOP AND ASK THE USER if
What it can do on your machine
Read from SKILL.md and the folder at commit b80cde2. 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.
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
API Credentials Hygiene loads about 919 tokens when it runs. Until then it costs about 60 tokens; SKILL.md has 411 words of instructions outside code blocks.
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: notes
The automated check noted patterns worth knowing about, such as sudo or a known installer.
- NoteMentions a .env fileSKILL.md:16
an environment variable map and a secure .env template for this project. - NoteMentions a .env fileSKILL.md:27
Current config files/redacted snippets (.env, compose, systemd, n8n creds list). - NoteMentions a .env fileSKILL.md:37
- Optional: `.env` template (placeholders only).
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.
SKILL.md
Without a licence we can't republish the file, so here is its outline and opening line. It has 411 words (~919 tokens).
