What This Skill Does

The xiaolongxia-assistant acts as your dedicated OpenClaw plugin development copilot. It streamlines the entire lifecycle of OpenClaw extensions, whether you are building lightweight prompt-based skills or complex feature-rich plugins. By leveraging this assistant, you can generate ready-to-run project scaffolds, automate installation and configuration, and receive expert guidance on troubleshooting common runtime errors. The assistant follows strict OpenClaw architectural patterns, ensuring that every plugin you develop is modular, maintainable, and prepared for deployment within the OpenClaw ecosystem.

Installation

To integrate the xiaolongxia-assistant into your development environment, run the following command in your terminal: clawhub install openclaw/skills/skills/boleyn/xiaolongxia-assistant Once installed, you can trigger the assistant by invoking its namespace in your chat or terminal session to start scaffold generation for your next development project.

Use Cases

1. Rapid Prototyping: Quickly generate boilerplate code for new plugins, including mandatory metadata files like openclaw.plugin.json.
2. Architecture Decision Support: Determine whether a specific feature request is better suited for a standalone Skill or a modular NPM-based Plugin based on your performance and dependency requirements.
3. Error Debugging: Input runtime error logs directly to receive step-by-step remediation advice tailored to the OpenClaw environment.
4. CI/CD Preparation: Use the assistant to generate standard installation and rollback scripts to ensure reliable version management across local and staging environments.

Example Prompts

1. "xiaolongxia-assistant, generate a scaffold for a new plugin that interacts with the filesystem; make sure it includes the manifest and a standard test suite."
2. "I need to automate a set of terminal commands based on user input, should I build this as a Skill or a Plugin? Please explain your reasoning and provide the base structure."
3. "My plugin is throwing a 'dependency mismatch' error during the install phase. Please diagnose the issue based on this stack trace: [Paste Trace]"

Tips & Limitations

• Semantic Versioning: Always adhere to semver standards for your plugin manifests to prevent breaking changes in your workflow.
• Contextual Clarity: Provide specific details about the external dependencies or APIs your plugin requires to allow the assistant to generate precise package.json configurations.
• Scope: This assistant focuses on code scaffolding and architecture guidance. It does not provide automated code deployment to production servers; you must manually trigger deployment commands after verification.
