System health validator — checks skill files, paths, permissions, binaries, backup freshness, and encryption. Produces pass/fail reports.
System health validator — checks skill files, paths, permissions, binaries, backup freshness, and encryption. Produces pass/fail reports.
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.
This skill validates the entire OpenClaw Greek Accounting system in a single command. It checks skill file integrity, directory structure, file permissions, required dependencies, backup freshness, encryption status, and process lock health. Designed to run daily via cron or manually before critical operations.
export OPENCLAW_DATA_DIR="/data" which jq openssl || sudo apt install jq openssl Read-only validation skill. Checks file presence, directory structure, permissions, and backup freshness. Never modifies any data.
Fast & Non-Destructive: Read-only checks — never modifies any data Comprehensive: Covers every layer from skill files to encryption status Actionable Output: Every failure includes a specific remediation command Cron-Friendly: Exit code 0 for all-pass, exit code 1 for any failure English Output: Plain English report suitable for accounting assistants and system admins
