Local System Info Skill

Monitor local system resources including CPU, memory, disk usage, and running processes.

Tool API

system_info

Retrieve system metrics.
  • Parameters:
  • action (string, required): One of summary, cpu, memory, disk, processes.
  • limit (integer, optional): Number of processes to list (default: 20). Only used with action=processes.
Usage:

bash
# Get full system summary
uv run --with psutil skills/local-system-info/sysinfo.py summary

# CPU metrics only
uv run --with psutil skills/local-system-info/sysinfo.py cpu

# Memory metrics only
uv run --with psutil skills/local-system-info/sysinfo.py memory

# Disk usage
uv run --with psutil skills/local-system-info/sysinfo.py disk

# List top processes by CPU usage
uv run --with psutil skills/local-system-info/sysinfo.py processes --limit 10

Output Format

  "cpu": {
    "cpu_percent": 15.2,
    "cpu_count": 8,
    "load_avg": [0.5, 0.3, 0.2]
  },
  "memory": {

    "percent": 50.0
  }
}

processes

    "username": "user",
    "cpu_percent": 5.2,
    "memory_percent": 2.1
  },
  ...
]

Metrics Explained

  • cpu_percent: Current CPU utilization (0-100%)
  • cpu_count: Number of logical CPU cores
  • load_avg: System load average (1, 5, 15 min) normalized by CPU count
  • memory.total/available: RAM in bytes
  • memory.percent: RAM usage percentage
  • disk.percent: Root filesystem usage percentage
  • processes: Top N processes sorted by CPU usage

Requirements

  • psutil: Cross-platform system monitoring library
  • Python 3.6+: For f-string support and typing

Platform Support

Works on Linux, macOS, Windows, and WSL. Some metrics may vary by platform:

  • load_avg: Not available on Windows
  • Process information depth varies by OS

Installation

Terminal bash

openclaw install local-system-info
