2 things to look at

  • no licenseNo license file was found in the repository. Code published without one is not open source by default, so using it at work is a question for whoever answers licensing questions where you are.
  • 0 stars0 stars. Stars are a popularity signal and not a quality one, but at this level it is likely that nobody has read this closely except its author, and you would be relying on your own review.

Helper Behavior Review

python scripts/_run.py is an optional helper whose behavior should be compared with this skill's documented purpose before use. Show what the script does, explain any mismatch with the user-facing description, and run it only when the user explicitly wants that diagnostic path.

Reader: Read less. Understand more.

Core Philosophy

  1. Distill before overwhelming.
  2. Prefer clarity over verbosity.
  3. Extract decisions, actions, and questions — not just summaries.
  4. Keep reading local, transparent, and low-friction.

Runtime Requirements

  • Python 3 must be available as python3
  • No external packages required

Storage

All data is stored locally only under:

  • ~/.openclaw/workspace/memory/reader/history.json

No external sync. No cloud storage. No third-party APIs.

Use Cases

  • Summarize a document or pasted text
  • Extract key points, action items, and open questions
  • Compare two drafts or reports
  • Turn long text into a concise reading brief
  • Help the user understand dense writing faster

Key Workflows

  • Read: read_text.py --file path/to/file
  • Summarize: summarize.py --file path/to/file --style executive
  • Brief: extract_brief.py --file path/to/file
  • Compare: compare_texts.py --file_a old.txt --file_b new.txt
