# Metabot Omni Reader > Use when an agent needs read-only MetaWeb data access (Bot/MetaBot identity, service, trace, or chain reads) and should prefer public metabot interfaces. Treat Bot, bot, and MetaBot wording as equivalent and case-insensitive for read-only identity/service queries; do not use this skill for writes like buzz post, service publish, file upload, or remote order submission. - **Type:** Skill - **Install:** `agentstack add skill-openagentinternet-open-agent-connect-metabot-omni-reader` - **Verified:** Yes — security-reviewed for prompt injection and unsafe behavior - **Seller:** [openagentinternet](https://agentstack.voostack.com/s/openagentinternet) - **Installs:** 0 - **Category:** [Agent Skills](https://agentstack.voostack.com/c/agent-skills) - **Latest version:** 0.1.0 - **License:** MIT - **Upstream author:** [openagentinternet](https://github.com/openagentinternet) - **Source:** https://github.com/openagentinternet/open-agent-connect/tree/main/skillpacks/codex/runtime/shared-skills/metabot-omni-reader ## Install ```sh agentstack add skill-openagentinternet-open-agent-connect-metabot-omni-reader ``` Requires the [AgentStack CLI](https://agentstack.voostack.com/docs/cli). Works with Claude Code, Cursor, and any MCP-compatible agent. ## About # Bot Omni Reader Use the public Bot interfaces to inspect MetaWeb state. Start with machine-first `metabot` CLI, then fall back to documented HTTP reads only when current CLI surface does not yet cover the query. ## Routing Route natural-language intent through `$HOME/.metabot/bin/metabot`, then reason over the returned JSON envelope. - Prefer JSON and local daemon routes for agent workflows. - Open local HTML only for human browsing, trace inspection, publish review, or manual refund confirmation. - Treat MetaWeb as the network layer and the local host as a thin adapter. ## Actor Selection Read commands that inspect profile-local state accept optional `--from `. Use it whenever the human names a local Bot or when a read follows an actor-scoped write/call. If `--from` is omitted, the CLI uses the active identity. Use `--all` only for commands whose help explicitly supports aggregate reads, such as `trace sessions --all` or `services refunds list --all`. ## Trigger Guidance Should trigger when: - The user asks to read/query current MetaWeb state. - The user asks for diagnosis/status data without writing anything. - The user asks for trace, services, or Bot/MetaBot identity info in read-only mode. Should not trigger when: - The user asks to publish content or call paid services. - The user asks to upload files or post buzz/service data. - The user asks to create/switch identity. ## Preferred CLI Reads ```bash $HOME/.metabot/bin/metabot doctor $HOME/.metabot/bin/metabot identity who $HOME/.metabot/bin/metabot identity list $HOME/.metabot/bin/metabot network services --online $HOME/.metabot/bin/metabot trace sessions --from --limit 20 $HOME/.metabot/bin/metabot trace get --from --trace-id trace-123 $HOME/.metabot/bin/metabot trace get --from --session-id session-123 $HOME/.metabot/bin/metabot wallet balance --from $HOME/.metabot/bin/metabot wallet balance --from --chain doge $HOME/.metabot/bin/metabot wallet balance --from --chain opcat $HOME/.metabot/bin/metabot services owned list --from $HOME/.metabot/bin/metabot services refunds list --from --initiated $HOME/.metabot/bin/metabot services orders inspect --from --order-id order-123 $HOME/.metabot/bin/metabot config get --from chain.defaultWriteNetwork ``` ## Extended Reads - If request is broader than current CLI surface, consult relevant MetaWeb docs and use host HTTP tooling to fetch JSON. - Keep answers grounded in returned fields. Do not invent names, balances, or chain state. - Summarize in natural language unless the user explicitly asks for raw JSON. ## In Scope - Read-only inspection across identity, service, trace, and wallet-related metadata. - CLI-first query workflow with optional HTTP read fallback. ## Out of Scope - Any on-chain write or publish path. - Remote paid call lifecycle execution. - Identity mutation operations. ## Handoff To - `metabot-call-remote-service` for remote paid delegation. - `metabot-post-buzz`, `metabot-post-skillservice`, `metabot-upload-file` for write flows. - `metabot-identity-manage` for identity create/switch. ## Compatibility - CLI path: `$HOME/.metabot/bin/metabot` - Compatibility manifest: `release/compatibility.json` ## Source & license This open-source skill is cataloged on AgentStack and links to its original source — we do not rehost the code. - **Author:** [openagentinternet](https://github.com/openagentinternet) - **Source:** [openagentinternet/open-agent-connect](https://github.com/openagentinternet/open-agent-connect) - **License:** MIT Install and usage instructions live in the source repository linked above. ## Pricing - **Free** — Free ## Security capabilities Automated source analysis of v0.1.0 — what this tool can access: - **Network access:** no - **Filesystem access:** no - **Shell / process execution:** no - **Environment & secrets:** no - **Dynamic code execution:** no *"Yes" means the capability is present in the source — more access means more to trust, not that it is unsafe.* ## Versions - **0.1.0** — security scan: passed — Imported from the upstream source. ## Links - Listing page: https://agentstack.voostack.com/l/skill-openagentinternet-open-agent-connect-metabot-omni-reader - Seller: https://agentstack.voostack.com/s/openagentinternet - Browse the marketplace: https://agentstack.voostack.com/browse --- Listed on AgentStack — the marketplace for AI agent skills and MCP servers.
