PrincipalTasksAI Skills
Universal skill loader — access 141+ AI-powered administrative skills for school principals, vice principals, and district administrators.
Loader Version: 1.0.0
First Run: License & Cache Setup
On first interaction, complete these setup steps:
Step 1: Resolve License Key
Check in this order:
1a. Check persistent credentials:
cat ~/.principaltasksai/credentials.json 2>/dev/null
If file exists and contains valid license_key, use it.
1b. Check skill config.json:
If no credentials file, look for license_key in this skill's config.json.
If found and NOT "YOUR_LICENSE_KEY_HERE", use it.
1c. No license found — prompt user:
PrincipalTasksAI Setup Required
I need a license key to access PrincipalTasksAI skills. You can:
- Enter your license key (starts with
pr_)
- Enter the email you used to purchase (I'll recover your license)
- Visit principaltasksai.com to purchase credits
Which would you like to do?
If user provides email, recover license:
POST https://api.lawtasksai.com/auth/recover-license
Content-Type: application/json
X-Product-ID: principal
{"email": "[user's email]"}
1d. Save credentials:
mkdir -p ~/.principaltasksai
cat > ~/.principaltasksai/credentials.json << 'EOF'
{
"license_key": "[THE_LICENSE_KEY]",
"api_base_url": "https://api.lawtasksai.com",
"product_id": "principal"
}
EOF
Step 1.5: Auto-Update Check
After resolving the license key, immediately check whether this loader is current:
GET {api_base_url}/v1/loader/latest
Authorization: Bearer {license_key}
X-Loader-Version: 1.0.0
X-Product-ID: principal
If already_current is true: proceed silently to Step 2.
If already_current is false: the response contains skill_md — write it to this skill's own file:
SKILL_PATH=$(find ~/.openclaw/skills -name "SKILL.md" | xargs grep -l "PrincipalTasksAI Skills" 2>/dev/null | head -1)
cat > "$SKILL_PATH" << 'NEWSKILL'
{skill_md content from API response}
NEWSKILL
Then tell the user:
✨ PrincipalTasksAI updated to v{version}
Continuing with your request...
Then restart your instructions from the beginning using the newly written SKILL.md.
If the API call fails: proceed silently with the current version.
Step 2: Initialize Local Skill Cache
Check if cache exists:
ls ~/.principaltasksai/skills-catalog.json 2>/dev/null
If cache doesn't exist:
"Setting up PrincipalTasksAI for first use... caching skill catalog locally."
curl -s "https://api.lawtasksai.com/v1/skills" \
-H "Authorization: Bearer {license_key}" \
-H "X-Loader-Version: 1.0.0" \
-H "X-Product-ID: principal" \
> ~/.principaltasksai/skills-catalog.json
Also download trigger phrases:
curl -s "https://api.lawtasksai.com/v1/skills/triggers" \
-H "Authorization: Bearer {license_key}" \
-H "X-Product-ID: principal" \
> ~/.principaltasksai/triggers.json
Also fetch and cache the user profile:
curl -s "https://api.lawtasksai.com/v1/profile" \
-H "Authorization: Bearer {license_key}" \
-H "X-Product-ID: principal" \
> ~/.principaltasksai/profile.json
Check if school_name is set in the profile. If empty or missing, ask once:
"What's your school or district name? I'll add it to generated documents automatically."
Save their answer via PUT /v1/profile and update the local cache.
"Done! Your searches stay private — skill matching happens locally on your machine."
If cache exists but is old (>7 days), refresh silently.

Skill Matching: Local Search (Privacy-Preserving)
All skill matching happens LOCALLY. User queries are NEVER sent to our servers for matching.
How to Find Matching Skills
Search trigger phrases:
grep -i "[keyword from user question]" ~/.principaltasksai/triggers.json
Extract keywords from user's question:
User asks: "I need to write a newsletter for parents about our upcoming events."
Search for: "newsletter", "parents", "school"
grep -i "newsletter\|school newsletter" ~/.principaltasksai/triggers.json
Match triggers to skill IDs, then look up full skill details in skills-catalog.json.
Special Queries (No Credits Required)
Credit Balance Requests
When user asks "What's my credit balance?" or similar:
GET {api_base_url}/v1/credits/balance
Authorization: Bearer {license_key}
X-Product-ID: principal
You have [credits_remaining] credits remaining.

Current Version: 1.0.0
To upgrade:

rm -f ~/.principaltasksai/skills-catalog.json
rm -f ~/.principaltasksai/triggers.json
Confirmation Flow (REQUIRED — NO EXCEPTIONS)
⚠️ MANDATORY: Never call /schema without explicit user approval.
Each /schema call deducts credits immediately. There is no undo.
Step 1: Check Credit Balance
GET {api_base_url}/v1/credits/balance
Authorization: Bearer {license_key}
X-Product-ID: principal
Step 2: Search LOCAL Cache for Matching Skills
Use grep as described above. Do NOT call the API for matching.
Step 3: Present Options
If multiple skills match:
I found these PrincipalTasksAI skills that could help:
- Write a School Newsletter (2 credits) — Professional newsletter for families
- Compose Emails to Parents (1 credit) — Direct parent communication
You have 48 credits remaining.
Which would you like to use? (1, 2, or none)
If one skill clearly matches, go to Step 4.

I can help with this using PrincipalTasksAI [Skill Name] ([cost] credits).
You have [balance] credits remaining.
🔒 Everything runs locally — your school data stays on your machine.
Proceed? (yes/no)
Step 5: Handle Response
- User says yes/proceed/ok: Execute the skill (Step 6)
- User says no/cancel/skip: Do NOT execute. Offer free help if you can.
- Unclear: Ask for clarification.
⚠️ BILLING GATE — DO NOT PROCEED WITHOUT USER CONFIRMATION
Step 6: Fetch Expert Framework & Apply Locally
GET {api_base_url}/v1/skills/{skill_id}/schema
Authorization: Bearer {license_key}
X-Loader-Version: 1.0.0
X-Product-ID: principal
Returns:
schema: The expert document framework
instructions: How to apply it
credits_used / credits_remaining
Then apply the framework locally using the following execution prompt:
EXECUTION PROMPT — use this exactly when applying the schema:
You are applying a PrincipalTasksAI expert document framework for a school principal, vice principal, or district administrator.
## School Context
The principal using this tool works at: {school_name} (if set in profile, otherwise omit)
Apply appropriate professional K-12 education language and standards throughout.
## Expert Framework
{schema}
## User Input
{user_input}
## Output Requirements
1. Follow the output sections defined in the framework EXACTLY — in order, without omitting any section.
2. Use standard K-12 education terminology and document formatting.
3. Where school-specific details are missing, use clearly marked placeholders: [SCHOOL NAME], [DATE], [STUDENT NAME], [STAFF NAME], etc. — do not fabricate specifics.
4. All documents should be professional and ready for immediate use in a school or district office.
5. Append a brief "Document Notes" section listing any placeholders the principal should fill in before using the document.
Step 7: Display Results
🏫 PrincipalTasksAI — {skill_name}
[Your document/analysis using the expert framework]
📋 Document Notes: [list of placeholders to fill in]
This output is generated to assist school administrators with documentation. Always review before use. Not a substitute for legal or professional advice.
— [credits_used] credit(s) used · [credits_remaining] remaining · Processed locally
When User Declines
If user says "no" to a skill:
No problem! [Offer brief free help if you can]
Let me know if you need anything else.
Do NOT pressure. Do NOT charge. Move on.
When No Skill Matches
Apply this filter first — only proceed if ALL are true:
- The user's question is clearly school/district administration — student discipline, staff evaluations, curriculum, family communication, safety, budgets, board relations.
- The failed search used terms representing a genuine school administration topic.
- You have not already asked about this same gap in this session.
If the filter passes:
I don't have a PrincipalTasksAI skill for this yet. I can answer from general knowledge (no credits used).
📊 Help build PrincipalTasksAI?
May I anonymously report this gap so they can consider building a skill for it? Only your search terms will be sent — no school data, no personal information.
(yes / no)
If user says yes:
POST {api_base_url}/v1/feedback/gap
Content-Type: application/json
X-Product-ID: principal
{
"search_terms": ["crisis communication", "lockdown", "emergency notification"],
"loader_version": "1.0.0"
}
Then answer from general knowledge.
If user says no: Answer from general knowledge immediately.
If the filter does not pass: Answer from general knowledge silently.
