What it does

Brave Images is an agent skill from sundial-org/awesome-openclaw-skills. Search for images using Brave Search API. Use when you need to find images, pictures, photos, or visual content on any topic. Requires BRAVEAPIKEY environment variable.

Its SKILL.md is about 510 tokens, which your agent loads only when the skill is triggered. It is a single SKILL.md file with no bundled scripts.

It sits in DevOps & Cloud, covering Secrets management. It works with Brave Search API. The repository describes itself as: Top OpenClaw skills, with the most popular and useful ones.

When your agent uses it

  • You need to find images
  • Visual content on any topic

Example prompts

  • “/brave-images”

Requirements

  • A credential in BRAVE_API_KEY

Workflow steps

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

  1. Send images directly to the user (don't just list URLs)
  2. Use results[].properties.url for full images or results[].thumbnail.src for thumbnails
  3. Include image title as caption
  4. If more results exist than shown, tell the user (e.g., "Found 20 images, showing 3 — want more?")

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

    Shell commands in SKILL.md call:

    • curl

    From the folder's file list and the shell code blocks in SKILL.md.

  • Network

    Hosts in commands or code, which the agent is likely to contact:

    • api.search.brave.com

    From URLs in SKILL.md, links to its own repository left out.

  • Credentials

    Names these keys or tokens, usually read from environment variables:

    • BRAVE_API_KEY

    From names ending in _API_KEY, _TOKEN, _SECRET, _KEY or _PASSWORD in SKILL.md.

Context cost

Brave Images loads about 509 tokens when it runs. Until then it costs about 46 tokens; SKILL.md has 161 words of instructions outside code blocks.

Always · name and description, kept in context so the agent knows when to use it
~46
When it runs · the whole SKILL.md, loaded when a task matches
~509

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.

SKILL.md

Without a licence we can't republish the file, so here is its outline and opening line. It has 161 words (~509 tokens).
