File Browser Skill

Quick Start

Resolve all paths relative to WORKSPACE=/home/alfred/.openclaw/workspace. Sanitize inputs to prevent escapes or absolutes.

• To list directory: exec("scripts/list_files.sh", [rel_path]) → JSON {success: bool, data: array of names, error: string}
• To read file: exec("scripts/read_file.sh", [rel_path]) → JSON {success: bool, data: string (text content), error: string}
• Handle errors: For binary/large/non-text files, return error JSON.

Step-by-Step Workflow

1. Parse user query for action (list/read) and relative path.
2. Call appropriate script with sanitized rel_path.
3. Parse JSON output; respond to user with results or error message.
4. If path invalid or outside workspace, reject immediately.

Safety Guidelines

• Enforce read-only: No writes, deletes, or exec beyond scripts.
• Log accesses if verbose mode enabled.
• For large files (>10k chars), truncate or summarize.

Edge Cases

• Empty path: Default to "." (workspace root).
• Binary file: Return error "Non-text file".
• See references/examples.md for more (if added).

Bundled Resources

• scripts/list_files.sh: Bash wrapper for ls.
• scripts/read_file.sh: Bash wrapper for cat with limits.
