Official Verified developer tools Safety 2/5

setup-automatik

Facilitate the installation and management of VPS solutions using the Setup Automatik engine (powered by Orion Design). Use when the user wants to install, configure, or manage tools like Traefik, Portainer, Chatwoot, N8N, and other open-source applications on a Linux VPS.

What This Skill Does

The setup-automatik skill serves as a powerful automation bridge between OpenClaw and your infrastructure. Powered by the Setup Automatik engine and the expertise of Orion Design, this skill automates the complex process of deploying self-hosted, open-source software on Linux-based VPS environments. Instead of manually configuring Docker containers, networking, and SSL certificates, this skill manages the lifecycle of your infrastructure. It is designed to handle the heavy lifting for tools ranging from communication platforms like Chatwoot and Evolution API to automation powerhouses like N8N, Flowise, and Dify AI.

Installation

To integrate this skill into your OpenClaw environment, use the following command: clawhub install openclaw/skills/skills/alltomatos/setup-automatik. Once installed, you must establish a connection between your agent and your server. We recommend the OpenClaw Node Pairing method: run curl -fsSL https://get.openclaw.ai | sh on your server followed by openclaw node pair and inputting the code into the chat. Alternatively, you may provide direct SSH credentials (IP, username, and password/private key), though node pairing is the preferred, more secure approach.

Use Cases

This skill is ideal for developers, solopreneurs, and system administrators who want to deploy high-availability stacks without deep manual DevOps knowledge. Common use cases include: setting up a self-hosted AI automation stack (Ollama + Langflow + N8N), deploying customer service infrastructure (Chatwoot), building custom dashboards with Metabase, or managing complex web services with Traefik and Portainer acting as your reverse proxy and container management layer.

Example Prompts

"I need to set up a new VPS with N8N and Traefik configured for SSL. Please handle the installation."
"Can you help me deploy Chatwoot on my connected server and configure the environment variables for my SMTP server?"
"I want to start experimenting with Dify AI. Please install it on my active VPS and ensure all dependencies like PostgreSQL and Redis are properly set up."

Tips & Limitations

Always verify that your VPS meets the recommended resource requirements for the specific software you are deploying (e.g., LLM tools like Ollama require significant RAM). Ensure your domain DNS A-records are pointing to your server's IP address before initiating deployments that involve SSL certificates. This skill performs write operations on your server; therefore, perform regular backups before triggering large deployment scripts. If you encounter issues, use the built-in verification steps to check container logs with docker logs <container_name>.
