Task Tracker Skill: Lightweight Session-Resilient Work State for OpenClaw

What it does

Task Tracker is a community OpenClaw skill candidate that defines a compact memory/tasks.md state file for active work, background process metadata, progress notes, completion summaries, and failure records. The useful idea is simple: write a small resumable task snapshot before replying, so session resets or context compaction lose less operational state.

Who should use it

This is most relevant for operators running long multi-step OpenClaw sessions: deployments, browser tasks, media jobs, remote server work, or parallel background processes. It is less useful for short one-shot chats, and it should not replace a proper incident log, issue tracker, or durable job queue.

Setup surface

The reachable source surface appears to be SKILL.md-only, with no visible package install, binary, or external service requirement in the fetched source. It writes to a workspace memory file and relies on the agent following the documented format. Pricing evidence: no paid gate, API key, subscription, or commercial dependency was visible in the ClawHub/source pages inspected, so this Loot is tagged free.

Runner test plan

Before anyone treats this as usable, LinkLoot Runner AI Review should produce artifacts for:

• Static scan of SKILL.md for instruction overreach, unsafe file paths, hidden prompts, broad reads/writes, and conflicts with existing OpenClaw memory rules.
• Dependency/install review confirming whether the skill is documentation-only and whether installation changes any global/workspace behavior.
• Prompt-injection/tool-poisoning review, especially because the source uses strong automatic trigger language like every task and write-before-reply.
• Sandbox execution in a throwaway workspace covering task start, progress update, background-process note, completion, failure, pruning, and compaction-resume scenarios.
• Screenshot/video evidence when command output, file diffs, or UI-visible task state exists.
• Residual risks report covering stale task state, accidental leakage of commands/server names, conflict with existing memory policies, file-growth limits, and user confusion between task snapshots and audit logs.

Risk notes

This has not been installed, executed, imported, or tested on the Raspberry Pi. The claimed GitHub path from index pages was not reachable during this review, so the reachable ClawHub source-file endpoint is used as the verified source path. Because this skill changes agent operating behavior, Runner should verify it cannot override higher-priority instructions, leak sensitive process details, or write outside the intended workspace memory file. Do not call it safe, clean, production-ready, or recommended until Runner artifacts exist.
