chats-share

What This Skill Does

The chats-share skill for OpenClaw is a powerful utility designed to transform internal AI conversation logs into clean, structured, and publicly accessible web pages. It serves as a bridge between private AI interaction and collaborative documentation. By leveraging a structured YAML format, the skill ensures that chat sessions are portable, redactable, and ready for publication. It manages the end-to-end lifecycle of an export, including file staging, Git branch management for version control, metadata enrichment, and sensitive data scrubbing.

Installation

To integrate this skill into your environment, use the OpenClaw command-line interface. Run the following command in your terminal:

clawhub install openclaw/skills/skills/imyelo/chats-share

Ensure that your OpenClaw environment is properly configured with a project directory and that your agent profiles are set up according to the references provided in your documentation. Upon installation, the skill will guide you through a setup check to determine if you are working within an existing repository or initializing a new workspace.

Use Cases

• Knowledge Sharing: Turn a complex technical debugging session into a searchable FAQ document for your team.
• Portfolio Building: Showcase how you effectively use AI agents by publishing successful prompt-engineering threads.
• Documentation: Maintain a record of specific AI-assisted workflows to ensure consistency across future projects.
• Transparency: Provide context for project decisions by sharing the evolution of a conversation as a public resource.

Example Prompts

1. "OpenClaw, I want to share our discussion about the React component refactor. Please use the chats-share skill to turn this session into a public page."
2. "Can you help me export my last chat with the code analyzer? I need it in YAML format to add to my project documentation repository."
3. "Export the session where we debugged the API integration error. Make sure to redact my private keys and then commit it to a new Git branch."

Tips & Limitations

• Always Review Redaction: While the skill provides automated redaction of standard sensitive patterns, always perform a final visual scan of the generated YAML before pushing to a public repository to ensure no PII or secrets remain.
• Branch Strategy: The skill enforces a mandatory Git branch checkout (chat/{date}-{topic}). Do not bypass this, as it prevents cluttering your main branch with raw chat logs.
• Metadata Accuracy: Spend the extra time to define the description and participants fields; high-quality metadata significantly improves the discoverability of your shared sessions.
