What it does

Yao Doctor Skill is an agent skill from yaojingang/yao-open-skills. Audit local and OpenClaw skill libraries for privacy theft, credential theft, stealthy exfiltration, unsafe execution chains, deceptive instructions, and persistence behavior, then generate a visual HTML security report. Use when Codex needs to security-review one skill or a full skill library before install, enablement, or execution. Do not use for generic cleanup, usage estimation, or app-level security review outside skill packages.

Its SKILL.md is about 1.1k tokens, which your agent loads only when the skill is triggered. The skill folder holds 39 other files, including scripts and reference files (for example `README.md`, `agents/interface.yaml` and `baselines/review-baseline.json`).

It sits in Security, covering Security review. The repository describes itself as: OpenYao public skills collection: reusable AI assets for decision-making, business analysis, tutorials, research evidence gathering, and document generation. The licence is MIT.

When your agent uses it

  • Codex needs to security-review one skill
  • A full skill library before install
  • Generic cleanup
  • Usage estimation

Example prompts

  • “/yao-doctor-skill”

Workflow steps

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

  1. Run scripts/run_yao_doctor_skill.py [root] [more-roots].
  2. Scan every discovered skill directory containing SKILL.md, plus recognized workbench surfaces such as local Codex and Claude configuration…
  3. For each skill, score two separate layers
  4. Reuse the incremental cache when possible, and surface per-target diffs plus evidence type and confidence in the final report.
  5. Generate _yao_doctor_skill_reports//report.html, report.json, and report.md.
  6. Summarize the highest-severity findings first, with exact paths, lines, evidence type, confidence, and the reason a finding is merely…

What it can do on your machine

Read from SKILL.md and the folder at commit 093996e. 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

    Ships 1 file in scripts/, which the agent can run.

    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

Yao Doctor Skill loads about 1.1k tokens when it runs, and up to ~5.3k if it reads all its reference files. Until then it costs about 114 tokens; SKILL.md has 437 words of instructions outside code blocks.

Always · name and description, kept in context so the agent knows when to use it
~114
When it runs · the whole SKILL.md, loaded when a task matches
~1.1k
With references · SKILL.md plus every file in references/, read only if the agent opens them
~5.3k

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); the scripts in this folder are not scanned.

description
Audit local and OpenClaw skill libraries for privacy theft, credential theft, stealthy exfiltration, unsafe execution chains, deceptive instructions, and persistence behavior, then generate a visual HTML security report. Use when Codex needs to security-review one skill or a full skill library before install, enablement, or execution. Do not use for generic cleanup, usage estimation, or app-level security review outside skill packages.

Yao Doctor Skill

Boundary

Own this recurring job: security-review skill packages as untrusted code and untrusted instructions, separate broad capability risk from actual unsafe behavior, and produce evidence-backed recommendations before the skills are installed or executed.

Do not route here for:

  • generic code security reviews outside skill folders
  • skill cleanup, archival, deduplication, or stale-usage analysis
  • privacy policy writing without scanning files
  • creating a brand-new skill with no security audit need

Default Workflow

  1. Run scripts/run_yao_doctor_skill.py [root] [more-roots]. If no roots are provided, auto-discover the current workspace, OpenClaw skill roots, Codex and Claude local skill roots, Codex plugin-cache skills, supported local workbench configuration surfaces, and project-level workbench surfaces such as repo AGENTS.md, CLAUDE.md, or selected .claude/.codex files.
  2. Scan every discovered skill directory containing SKILL.md, plus recognized workbench surfaces such as local Codex and Claude configuration bundles and project-local agent configuration areas.
  3. For each skill, score two separate layers:
    • capability risk: what the skill can access or execute
    • unsafe behavior: what the skill appears to do with sensitive data or hidden actions
  4. Reuse the incremental cache when possible, and surface per-target diffs plus evidence type and confidence in the final report.
  5. Generate _yao_doctor_skill_reports/<timestamp>/report.html, report.json, and report.md. Also update the stable entry:
    • full scans -> _yao_doctor_skill_reports/full-library-latest/report.html
    • changed-only scans -> _yao_doctor_skill_reports/changed-only-latest/report.html
  6. Summarize the highest-severity findings first, with exact paths, lines, evidence type, confidence, and the reason a finding is merely risky, suspicious, unsafe, or critical.

Security Principles

  • Do not equate broad permissions with automatic compromise.
  • Treat a skill as unsafe only when there is evidence of privacy theft, credential theft, stealthy exfiltration, deceptive behavior, remote execution, or persistence abuse.
  • Distinguish capability from intent. A skill may be powerful without being malicious.
  • Escalate hard when a sensitive source and an external sink appear in the same execution path or file.
  • Favor precise path-level evidence over generic suspicion.
  • Stay read-only unless the user explicitly authorizes destructive or quarantine actions.

Outputs

Primary artifact:

  • visual HTML security report with the fixed section order:
    • overview
    • data analysis
    • definitions
    • module guide
    • skill modules
    • footer credit

Current interactive contract:

  • sticky top navigation
  • Chinese default with English toggle
  • linked type filters between data analysis and module list
  • module cards with audit opinion, findings, and capability evidence
  • stable latest report entry for in-app browsing and reuse

Per skill, include:

  • absolute path
  • declared skill name and one-line summary
  • capability risk score and level
  • unsafe behavior score and level
  • final disposition: safe, risky, suspicious, unsafe, or critical
  • top capabilities discovered
  • concrete findings with file path, line, category, severity, rationale, and recommended action

What does Yao Doctor Skill need to run?

SKILL.md names no scripts, command-line tools or credentials: Yao Doctor Skill is instructions for the agent only.

Does Yao Doctor Skill access the network?

SKILL.md contains no URLs. Any network use would come from the scripts or tools the agent runs. This is read from the text; nothing was executed.

Is Yao Doctor Skill safe to install?

Our automated static check of SKILL.md found no risky patterns, such as piping downloads into a shell, reading credential files or hidden Unicode. It is not a guarantee. The check reads SKILL.md only: the scripts in the folder are not scanned, so read them before running anything.

What licence does Yao Doctor Skill use?
