What This Skill Does

The gov_apply skill is a precision governance tool designed for OpenClaw AI agents to manage BOOT upgrade processes. It acts as an automated interface for executing approved infrastructure or system upgrades that are defined within the BOOT menu ecosystem. By utilizing the prompts/governance/APPLY_UPGRADE_FROM_BOOT.md workflow, the skill ensures that complex upgrade sequences are executed with high fidelity and strict adherence to defined governance standards. The skill requires a two-digit item identifier to initiate the apply runner, ensuring that users do not accidentally execute the wrong upgrade package.

Installation

To integrate gov_apply into your OpenClaw environment, ensure your agent has access to the central repository. Run the following command in your terminal or command-line interface: clawhub install openclaw/skills/skills/adamchanadam/gov-apply Once installed, the skill registers the /gov_apply slash command. If a name collision occurs with an existing system utility, you may invoke the skill using /skill gov_apply <NN> as a fallback.

Use Cases

This skill is intended for system administrators and DevOps engineers managing distributed OpenClaw nodes. Common use cases include: 1) Deploying verified patches to internal modules when signaled by the BOOT upgrade menu. 2) Coordinating systematic version updates across a workspace root to maintain compatibility with the latest OpenClaw releases. 3) Automating the audit and migration phase that follows an upgrade application to ensure configuration drift is kept to a minimum.

Example Prompts

  1. "/gov_apply 05 - Please apply the fifth approved BOOT upgrade item."
  2. "/gov_apply 12 - Run the migration flow for upgrade item 12."
  3. "/skill gov_apply 01 - Trigger the governance apply runner for item 01."

Tips & Limitations

Always verify that you are working within the correct <workspace-root> context before executing the command. This skill is strictly sensitive to the provided item number; failure to provide exactly two digits will result in an error. If the BOOT menu context is not currently active, the skill will halt and request the menu. For sensitive deployments, always cross-reference your specific version against official releases at https://github.com/openclaw/openclaw/releases to confirm compatibility before initiating the upgrade.
