What This Skill Does

The clawddocs skill transforms your OpenClaw agent into a specialized documentation engineer for the Clawdbot ecosystem. It provides an intelligent interface to navigate, query, and troubleshoot the entire Clawdbot architecture. By integrating directly with local file systems via scripts, it enables rapid retrieval of configuration snippets, version change history, and semantic full-text search capabilities using qmd. Whether you are architecting a new automation workflow, setting up a messaging provider, or diagnosing gateway errors, this skill acts as your primary knowledge base, reducing context switching and accelerating development speed.

Installation

To install this skill, run the following command in your terminal: clawhub install openclaw/skills/skills/nicholasspisak/clawddocs Once installed, ensure your environment has access to the /scripts/ directory to enable document fetching, index building, and version tracking features.

Use Cases

• Onboarding: Developers new to the Clawdbot platform can use the decision tree logic to find quick-start guides and installation procedures for Docker or Linux servers.
• Configuration Management: Retrieve exact configuration snippets for complex providers like WhatsApp or Discord, ensuring syntax and parameters are up-to-date.
• Troubleshooting: Diagnose system performance or gateway connectivity issues by accessing internal debugging documentation.
• Automation Design: Learn how to implement advanced features like Gmail pub/sub, cron-based tasks, and webhooks with step-by-step guidance.
• Version Control Tracking: Utilize the snapshot and diff features to understand how your project's configuration state has evolved over time.

Example Prompts

1. "How do I configure the Discord provider for a bot with multiple channels?"
2. "I'm seeing a connection timeout in the gateway logs, can you find the troubleshooting steps for this?"
3. "Show me the recent changes to the configuration schema since the start of last month using the track-changes script."

Tips & Limitations

• Performance: Always run ./scripts/build-index.sh build after adding new documentation to ensure semantic searches are accurate.
• Caching: If documentation seems stale, use ./scripts/cache.sh refresh to force a sitemap update.
• Scope: This skill is strictly scoped to Clawdbot documentation. It cannot execute arbitrary code outside of the defined script directory, ensuring a secure documentation-retrieval environment.
