Hand the extracted package to your coding agent with a concrete install brief instead of figuring it out manually.
I downloaded a skill package from Yavira. Read SKILL.md from the extracted folder and install it by following the included instructions. Tell me what you changed and call out any manual steps you could not complete.
I downloaded an updated skill package from Yavira. Read SKILL.md from the extracted folder, compare it with my current installation, and upgrade it while preserving any custom configuration unless the package docs explicitly say otherwise. Summarize what changed and any follow-up checks I should run.

Main configuration file. API key can be set here or via CRICKET_API_KEY env var (env var takes priority). api_key: "" # Set via env var recommended favorite_teams: # Teams for alert filtering - India - Mumbai Indians alert_events: # Events that trigger alerts - wicket - century - match_end cache_dir: /tmp/cricket-cache # Cache directory cache_ttl: # Cache TTL in seconds per endpoint live: 120 upcoming: 1800 results: 1800 series: 86400 scorecard: 300
Team name aliases for fuzzy matching. Maps shorthand names (MI, CSK, IND, AUS) to canonical API names. See config/README.md for details.
Set up periodic match alerts: # Check for notable events every 5 minutes during match hours */5 9-23 * * * CRICKET_API_KEY="your-key" bash /path/to/skills/cricket-scores/scripts/cricket-alert.sh # Or use OpenClaw cron: # Schedule cricket-alert.sh to run during IPL match times (7-11 PM IST) The alert script tracks state in /tmp/cricket-alert-state.json and only outputs when something new happens (wicket, century, match result).

All scripts cache API responses locally in /tmp/cricket-cache/: Live scores: 2 min TTL (fresh during matches) Upcoming/Results: 30 min TTL Series info: 24 hour TTL Scorecards: 5 min TTL
~10 list calls + ~50 score checks + 40 ad-hoc = 100 calls (fits free tier)
Scripts show a clear message: "API quota exhausted (100 calls/day limit reached). Try again tomorrow or upgrade."
All output is messaging-friendly: No markdown tables (works on WhatsApp, Discord, Telegram) Bullet point lists with emoji Times converted to IST Match IDs included for drill-down

API key in URL query parameter: The CricketData.org API (api.cricapi.com) requires the API key to be passed as a URL query parameter (?apikey=...). This means the key may appear in shell history, process listings, server access logs, and any HTTP proxy/inspection logs. Mitigations: Set the key via the CRICKET_API_KEY environment variable (not hardcoded in config files). Use the free tier key for this skill โ it has limited scope and can be rotated easily. Avoid running scripts in shared/multi-tenant environments where process arguments are visible to other users. The CricketData.org API does not support header-based authentication, so query-param passing is unavoidable.
