File contents

ClawHub Skill Manager

Install and manage skills from ClawHub, the public skill registry for OpenClaw.

Prerequisites

The clawhub CLI must be available on PATH. Verify with which clawhub. If missing, ask the user to install it manually:

npm i -g clawhub

Do not auto-install without user confirmation.

Commands

Install a skill

cd ~/.openclaw/workspace && clawhub install <slug>

<slug> is the skill identifier from ClawHub (e.g. summarize, weather, coding-agent)
Skills are installed into ./skills/ under the workspace
A new OpenClaw session is needed to pick up the skill

Search for skills

clawhub search "<query>"

Update skills

# Update a specific skill
clawhub update <slug>

# Update all installed skills
clawhub update --all

Other useful commands

clawhub info <slug>       # Show skill details
clawhub list              # List installed skills
clawhub --help            # Full CLI reference

Workflow

Ensure clawhub CLI is installed (check with which clawhub, install if missing)
cd to the workspace directory: ~/.openclaw/workspace
Run the appropriate clawhub command
Inform the user to start a new session (or restart gateway) for the skill to take effect

Installing via WhatsApp

Users can install skills by messaging the OpenClaw agent on WhatsApp:

clawhub install <slug>

Example: clawhub install summarize

The agent will handle CLI installation and confirm when the skill is ready.

Notes

All ClawHub skills are public and open
Treat third-party skills as untrusted — review before enabling
Workspace skills (<workspace>/skills/) take highest precedence over managed and bundled skills
