What it does

Qmd 4 is an agent skill from sundial-org/awesome-openclaw-skills. Search and retrieve markdown documents from local knowledge bases using qmd. Supports BM25 keyword search, vector semantic search, and hybrid search with LLM re-ranking. Use for querying indexed notes, documentation, meeting transcripts, and any markdown-based knowledge. Requires qmd CLI installed (bun install -g https://github.com/tobi/qmd).

Its SKILL.md is about 700 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 Knowledge Management, covering Knowledge bases, Retrieval-augmented generation and Markdown. It works with GitHub and Bun. The repository describes itself as: Top OpenClaw skills, with the most popular and useful ones.

When your agent uses it

  • Querying indexed notes
  • Meeting transcripts
  • Any markdown-based knowledge

Example prompts

  • “/qmd-4”

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:

    • bun

    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:

    • github.com

    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

Qmd 4 loads about 699 tokens when it runs. Until then it costs about 88 tokens; SKILL.md has 162 words of instructions outside code blocks.

Always · name and description, kept in context so the agent knows when to use it
~88
When it runs · the whole SKILL.md, loaded when a task matches
~699

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 162 words (~699 tokens).
