Skill Auto Attach

What This Skill Does

The Skill Auto Attach, developed by elodyzen, is a powerful automation utility for OpenClaw users who rely on Telegram for project updates. Instead of dumping raw, unformatted code snippets into your Telegram chat, this skill intelligently monitors your active OpenClaw workspace for new or modified files. When it detects changes in .html, .md, or .txt files, it automatically creates a copy of the file in the /tmp directory and sends it as a document attachment through the OpenClaw message tool. This ensures that your documentation remains clean, formatted, and easily accessible on your mobile or desktop Telegram client without cluttering the chat history with long blocks of text.

Installation

To integrate this skill into your workflow, follow these steps:

1. Open your terminal and ensure you have the latest version of OpenClaw (v2026.2 or higher).
2. Run the installation command: clawhub install openclaw/skills/skills/elodyzen/skill-auto-attach.
3. Verify the files are correctly placed in ~/.openclaw/skills/skill-auto-attach.
4. Enable the skill by executing: openclaw skills enable skill-auto-attach.
5. Once enabled, the skill operates in the background automatically, requiring no further manual configuration.

Use Cases

This skill is perfect for developers working in remote environments who need to sync technical documentation or quick notes to their mobile devices. It is particularly useful for:

• Tracking project status updates documented in Markdown files.
• Sharing technical specifications generated by AI agents directly to a team Telegram channel.
• Keeping a log of system configurations that are updated in real-time.

Example Prompts

• "OpenClaw, monitor my workspace and send updates to my Telegram channel if I edit my README.md file."
• "Can you ensure that any documentation changes are attached as files instead of text snippets?"
• "Verify if skill-auto-attach is active and ready to forward my project summaries to Telegram."

Tips & Limitations

• The skill currently defaults to sending files via Telegram. If your workflow involves other messaging platforms, you will need to customize the internal source configuration.
• On devices with limited disk space, be mindful that frequent updates may accumulate temporary files in the /tmp directory. Periodically clear your temporary folder to maintain optimal performance.
• Ensure your OpenClaw agent has the message tool enabled, otherwise, the skill will be unable to transmit the files to your linked Telegram account.
