generated/openclaw/bane/SKILL.md
Bane curses targets, making them worse at everything they try. The real-world version is systematic weakness analysis: finding every crack, bad assumption, and failure mode in a plan, architecture, or argument. Unlike Vicious Mockery (which delivers the critique sharply), Bane is comprehensive and methodical — it maps the full attack surface.

Bane
Surface every weakness in a plan, system, or argument.
Overview
Bane is interpreted here as a metaphorical spell with a shipping-now execution model.
Canonical source: Bane (spell)
Provider target: OpenClaw
When To Use
- You need a thorough weakness analysis before committing to a plan, architecture, or strategy.
- Something feels fragile and you want to know exactly where it will break.
- You want a pre-mortem focused specifically on vulnerabilities rather than general risks.
Workflow
- Accept the target: the plan, system, argument, or design to analyze.
- Systematically probe each component, assumption, and dependency for weaknesses.
- Categorize weaknesses by severity and exploitability.
- Deliver a ranked vulnerability map with the most dangerous weaknesses first.
Deliverables
- A ranked weakness map: every identified vulnerability sorted by severity.
- For each weakness, a brief note on how it could be exploited or how it would fail.
Guardrails
- Bane finds weaknesses, it does not exploit them. The output is a diagnostic, not an attack plan.
- If the target has no significant weaknesses, say so. Forced negativity is as dishonest as forced positivity.
Default Invocation
Use $bane to find every weakness in this [plan/system/argument]. Give me a ranked vulnerability map.

development
VerifiedTrustedCommunity
The bard's cantrip that deals psychic damage through insults. In practice this is adversarial review — the art of finding and articulating exactly what is wrong with something in a way that is impossible to ignore. Unlike polite feedback that gets filed and forgotten, vicious mockery lands. It is the red-team report that makes the PM cancel the launch, the code review that makes the author delete the PR, the roast that makes the founder pivot. The damage is the point.

Use this spell for preflight certainty: dry runs, validation checks, dependency verification, and rehearsals that make the next deploy, query, or command much more likely to succeed. It trades a little time up front for fewer blind swings and fewer expensive misses.
