  • Markdown instructions

    A SKILL.md file the model loads on demand, so it only costs tokens when a request actually matches.

  • Works with any LLM

    AI skills are plain Markdown, not provider-specific code, so this works with GPT, Claude, Gemini, Grok, or a local model.

  • Self-contained

    Everything the model needs lives in the instructions — no extra files to sync.

  • Open source

    Published by openclaw on GitHub. Read the source before you install it.

Installation

Install the Healthcheck AI skill in TypingMind to use it with any LLM, or drop it into another agent that reads SKILL.md.

1

Install in TypingMind

TypingMind installs a skill straight from its GitHub folder — it reads SKILL.md, bundles the resource files, and stores the result locally.

  1. Open the app and go to Plugins → Skills.
  2. Choose "Install from GitHub".
  3. Paste the skill folder URL below and confirm.
    https://github.com/openclaw/openclaw/tree/main/skills/healthcheck
  4. Enable the skill in any chat where you want it available.
Plugins → Skills → Add skill → From GitHub URL, then paste the folder URL and press Continue.
2

Install in another agent

Any agent that reads the Agent Skills format can use this skill — copy the folder into that agent's skills directory.

Claude Code — .claude/skills
git clone --depth 1 https://github.com/openclaw/openclaw.git /tmp/openclaw
mkdir -p .claude/skills
cp -r /tmp/openclaw/skills/healthcheck .claude/skills/healthcheck
Restart Claude Code after copying so it picks up the new skill.

Use it in TypingMind

Enable Healthcheck in any TypingMind chat and the model takes it from there. Its name and description sit in the system prompt, and the moment a request matches, the model loads the full instructions itself — you never invoke it by hand, and it costs no tokens until it is actually used.

The model loads Healthcheck on its own as soon as a request matches it.

Works with any AI model

AI skills are plain Markdown instructions rather than provider-specific code, so Healthcheck is not tied to the model it was written for. Install it once in TypingMind and use it with GPT-5, Claude, Gemini, Grok, DeepSeek, Mistral, Llama, or a local model you run yourself — all on your own API keys.

  • Loaded only when it is needed

    The system prompt carries just the name and description. The instructions are fetched on the first matching request, so an idle skill costs nothing.

  • Switch models mid-chat

    Because the skill is instructions rather than code, changing model does not break it — the next model reads the same SKILL.md.

Skill instructions

This is the SKILL.md content the model loads. Read it before installing — a skill is instructions your model will follow.

OpenClaw host healthcheck

Goal: assess host risk, run read-only checks, then propose staged hardening without breaking access.

Rules

  • Ask before state-changing actions.
  • Do not change SSH/firewall/remote access until access path is confirmed.
  • Prefer reversible steps and rollback notes.
  • Never claim OpenClaw manages OS firewall, SSH, or updates.
  • If identity/role unknown, recommend only.
  • User choices: numbered list.
  • Never print secrets.

Context to infer first

  • OS/version, container vs host.
  • Privilege level.
  • Access path: local, SSH, RDP, tailnet.
  • Network exposure: public IP, reverse proxy, tunnel, LAN only.
  • OpenClaw gateway status, bind, auth.
  • Backup status.
  • Disk encryption.
  • Automatic security updates.
  • Usage mode: personal workstation, local assistant box, remote server, other.

Ask only for missing facts. Simple phrasing preferred.

Read-only checks

Ask once for permission to run read-only checks. Then run relevant commands.

Common:

bash
openclaw security audit --deep
openclaw gateway status --deep
openclaw doctor --lint

doctor --lint can exit 1 for findings: read the report and continue the remaining checks. Ordinary doctor and doctor --non-interactive can copy legacy config and migrate state without --fix; reserve repairs for explicit approval. Read-only checks exclude config/service repairs and state migrations, but may produce incidental logs or cache bookkeeping.

macOS:

bash
sw_vers
lsof -nP -iTCP -sTCP:LISTEN
/usr/libexec/ApplicationFirewall/socketfilterfw --getglobalstate
pfctl -s info
tmutil status
fdesetup status
softwareupdate --schedule

Linux:

bash
cat /etc/os-release
ss -ltnup || ss -ltnp
ufw status || firewall-cmd --state || nft list ruleset
systemctl status ssh sshd
lsblk -f

Windows:

powershell
systeminfo
Get-NetFirewallProfile
Get-BitLockerVolume

Risk profile

After context is known, ask desired posture:

  1. Convenience: local/private, minimal prompts.
  2. Balanced: secure defaults, low friction.
  3. Strict: remote/public/sensitive data, more lock-down.

Report shape

  • Current posture: one paragraph.
  • Findings: severity + evidence + why it matters.
  • Recommended plan: staged, reversible.
  • Commands: read-only first; write actions only after approval.
  • Gaps: what could not be checked.

Hardening menu

Offer only relevant items:

  • Bind gateway to loopback/LAN/tailnet intentionally.
  • Require auth for remote access.
  • Close public ports or restrict by firewall.
  • Enable OS security updates.
  • Enable disk encryption.
  • Verify backups and restore path.
  • Disable password SSH or require keys/MFA where appropriate.
  • Add scheduled openclaw security audit --deep.

Confirm exact action before applying.

Frequently asked questions

What does the Healthcheck AI skill do?

Audit/harden OpenClaw hosts: SSH, firewall, updates, exposure, backups, disk encryption, gateway security.

Why use Healthcheck on TypingMind?

Because you install it once and use it with any model. Healthcheck is plain Markdown rather than provider-specific code, so the same skill runs on GPT-5, Claude, Gemini, Grok, or a local model — and you can switch model mid-chat without it breaking. TypingMind runs on your own API keys, so you pay providers directly instead of a per-seat subscription, and your skills and chats stay in your own storage.

How do I install Healthcheck in TypingMind?

Open Plugins → Skills → Install from GitHub in TypingMind and paste https://github.com/openclaw/openclaw/tree/main/skills/healthcheck. TypingMind reads its SKILL.md and installs it as a skill you can enable per chat.

Which AI models can use Healthcheck?

Any model you connect in TypingMind. AI skills are plain Markdown instructions rather than provider-specific code, so GPT, Claude, Gemini, Grok, and local models can all load this skill when a request matches it.

How many AI models can I use with Healthcheck?

As many as you like. As long as a model supports skills, you can use Healthcheck with it — GPT, Claude, Gemini, Grok, DeepSeek, Mistral, Llama and more — all on TypingMind with your own API keys.

Is the Healthcheck AI skill free?

It is published on GitHub by openclaw. Check the repository for licensing terms. You only pay your own AI provider for the tokens you use.

What are AI skills?

An AI skill is a reusable instruction bundle that teaches an AI model how to do one specific task. It follows the open Agent Skills format: a SKILL.md file with a name and description, plus any scripts, templates or reference files the model may need. The model reads the instructions only when your request matches the skill, so an installed skill costs nothing until it is used.

How are AI skills different from plugins or MCP servers?

A plugin or MCP server gives a model new tools to call — code that runs somewhere and returns a result. An AI skill gives the model knowledge and process instead: how to approach a task, which steps to follow, what good output looks like. Skills are plain Markdown, so they need no server, no API key and no runtime, and they work with any model.
