Official Verified developer tools Safety 3/5

skill-search

Search, discover, and dynamically load skills from the ClawHub registry at skills.droyd.ai. Use when an agent needs a capability it doesn't have, wants to find tools for a specific task, or needs to browse trending/popular skills. Triggers include requests to find skills, search for tools, discover capabilities, load a skill dynamically, check what skills exist for a domain, or run a skill without installing it. Also use when the user asks about available OpenClaw/ClawHub skills, wants to explore skill categories, or needs to fetch and execute skill content on the fly.

Why use this skill?

Efficiently search, discover, and dynamically load AI agent skills from the ClawHub registry. Expand your capabilities with instant access to thousands of tools.

What This Skill Does

The skill-search skill is the primary gateway for OpenClaw agents to interact with the ClawHub registry, a massive, community-driven repository of executable capabilities. This skill enables an agent to perform discovery, inspection, and on-the-fly loading of external tools without the need for manual, permanent installation. By leveraging skill-search, an agent becomes functionally dynamic, capable of adapting to novel user requests by fetching specialized scripts, dependencies, and metadata from https://skills.droyd.ai.

Installation

To enable this skill permanently in your environment, execute the following command in your terminal: clawhub install openclaw/skills/skills/dustinjamest/skill-search

Use Cases

Use skill-search when you need to expand your operational scope. It is essential when:

The user requests a task (like 'analyze this trading chart' or 'deploy this smart contract') that you do not have built-in support for.
You need to perform research into the available tools for a specific domain, such as identifying the best crypto or browser automation libraries.
You want to preview a skill's functionality or dependencies before committing to a permanent installation, using the --extract flag to sandbox the content in /tmp/openclaw-skills/.
You are browsing for trending or highly rated tools to optimize your workflow in fields like coding, devops, or media generation.

Example Prompts

"Search the ClawHub registry for any available skills that can help with automating browser interactions for data scraping."
"I need to analyze some recent market trends. Find me the top-rated trending skills in the 'finance' and 'trading' categories."
"Fetch the details for 'author/data-cleaner', extract the files to my temp directory, and then summarize the instructions found in its SKILL.md file."

Tips & Limitations

Dynamic Execution: Always inspect the SKILL.md file after extracting content to understand the specific execution requirements and API key dependencies.
Scope: The skill uses a /tmp/ directory for extracted files. If your agent session expires, these files may be cleared; for recurring tasks, use the clawhub install command for permanent integration.
Filters: Use specific category filters (like devops, coding, or security) to significantly reduce search noise and retrieve more relevant tools.
Security: Since dynamic loading involves pulling remote code, ensure you are running these scripts in a controlled or containerized environment when exploring untested or third-party skills.
