Psyclaw Pss10

What This Skill Does

The Psyclaw Pss10 is a specialized OpenClaw agent skill developed by anctro, designed for structured, clinical-grade stress assessment using the PSS-10 (Perceived Stress Scale) framework. This skill acts as an intelligent interviewer, guiding users through a series of ten standardized questions to evaluate how unpredictable, uncontrollable, and overloaded their lives have felt over the past month. By leveraging the OpenClaw architecture, it provides a private, conversational, and non-judgmental environment for mental wellness tracking, allowing for consistent monitoring of stress levels over time.

Installation

To integrate the Psyclaw Pss10 into your OpenClaw environment, ensure you have the base health dependencies installed first. Run the following command in your terminal:

npx clawhub install openclaw/skills/skills/anctro/psyclaw-pss10

If you have previously used other health-related skills, ensure your credentials are configured correctly in .agents/skill-docs/openclaw-health/credentials.json. If the skill fails to initialize, verify your installation with npx clawhub update psyclaw-openclaw-health --force to ensure all prerequisites are met.

Use Cases

This skill is intended for individuals, counselors, and developers building wellness-focused AI agents. Primary use cases include:

1. Personal Wellness Tracking: Regularly monitoring stress levels as part of a daily or weekly routine to gain actionable insights into lifestyle adjustments.
2. Mental Health Research: Assisting clinicians in gathering longitudinal data on patient stress markers through structured digital interfaces.
3. Workplace Productivity Support: Providing employees with a confidential tool to self-assess burnout risk and trigger proactive wellness reminders.

Example Prompts

1. "OpenClaw, please initiate the PSS-10 stress screening for my weekly health check-in."
2. "I'm feeling overwhelmed lately, can you run the Psyclaw Pss10 assessment so I can track my stress score?"
3. "Summarize my last three PSS-10 results and tell me if my stress levels are trending upward."

Tips & Limitations

• Consistency is Key: Try to complete the assessment at the same time of day and in a similar environment to ensure the most accurate comparison of data points.
• Privacy First: While the agent processes information locally, ensure your data folders are encrypted if you are concerned about sensitive health records.
• Not a Diagnostic Tool: Please note that the PSS-10 is a self-report instrument for perceived stress. It is not a clinical diagnostic tool for mental health disorders. If you are experiencing severe distress, please consult with a qualified medical professional or therapist immediately. This skill provides data, not medical advice.
