BC signal-integration
Full Signal messenger integration for OpenClaw agents. Send/receive text and voice messages via signal-cli with role-based permissions (owner/trusted/untrusted), automatic voice transcription (Whisper), voice replies (TTS), conversation history, new contact triage, typing indicators, read receipts, and instant wake-on-message via OpenClaw hooks API. Use when setting up Signal messaging, handling Signal contacts, sending/receiving Signal messages, or managing Signal contact permissions.
Full Signal messenger integration for OpenClaw agents.
As a process C 56/100 · Has gaps — weak spots: result and completion, when it triggers, failures and branches
What is at stake
Medium-severity findings: the skill is probably honest, but read what alarmed the scanner.
Below is the worst case for this category. The finding here is medium: the guard saw a sign, not a proof.
The skill contains commands that delete files, rewrite disks or execute code fetched from the network. The agent may run them without asking if it believes the instructions require it.
Replace destructive commands with safe equivalents that ask for confirmation, scope them to one folder, and stop piping curl into a shell: pin a version and a checksum.
How to improve
- Your own cases (evals/evals.json, 4–6 real requests with expected answers): the full check would then run those instead of a model-drafted suite.
- A spec.yaml with trigger phrases and assertions — a behaviour contract for CI; `skilltest init` writes a template.

Against the Agent Skills spec
✓ No remarks against the Agent Skills spec
Process rating: all ten parameters 56/100
- 0Result and completion. Does not say what the result is
- 0Failures and branches. Linear process with no failure handling
- 20When it triggers. No condition that starts the skill
- 30Running it twice. 16 mutating operations with no state check
- 40Consistency. Frontmatter name (signal-integration) differs from the folder (signal-messenger-standalone)
- 70Inputs and preconditions. Inputs and preconditions are listed
- 100Tools and files. No external tools needed
- 100Steps. 32 steps
- 100Execution cost. Instruction body is 1776 tokens
- 100Progress reporting. Reports progress
- low 10 top-level sections: this looks like several domains in one skill
Everything here is measured from the skill text rather than judged by a model, so the numbers are checkable. A parameter weighs more when it is a more common reason for the process to stall.
