What it does

Clawteam Dev is an agent skill from HKUDS/ClawTeam. Use this skill when working inside the ClawTeam repository itself: local development, debugging, reviewing, testing, validating multi-agent flows, or checking whether a code change actually works end-to-end. Use the repository bootstrap scripts to standardize the local clawteam command and to wire project-local .agents and .claude skills back to this repository. This skill is repository-development oriented, not a general end-user usage guide.

Its SKILL.md is about 1.1k tokens, which your agent loads only when the skill is triggered. The skill folder holds 3 other files, including scripts (for example `scripts/bootstrap_clawteam_dev.sh` and `scripts/link_local_clawteam_skills.sh`).

It sits in Testing & QA, covering Multi-agent orchestration. The repository describes itself as: "ClawTeam: Agent Swarm Intelligence" (One Command → Full Automation). The licence is MIT.

Requirements

Python 3
A Bash shell

What it can do on your machine

Read from SKILL.md and the folder at commit 0119833. It shows what the files ask for, not the result of running them.

Tool permissions
Pre-approves nothing: there is no allowed-tools line, so your agent's usual permission prompts apply.
From allowed-tools in the SKILL.md frontmatter.
Runs code
Ships 2 files in scripts/ (Shell), which the agent can run.
Shell commands in SKILL.md call:
- pytest
- bash
- ruff
From the folder's file list and the shell code blocks in SKILL.md.
Network
No URLs in SKILL.md.
From URLs in SKILL.md, links to its own repository left out.
Credentials
Names no API keys, tokens, secrets or passwords.
From names ending in _API_KEY, _TOKEN, _SECRET, _KEY or _PASSWORD in SKILL.md.

Context cost

Clawteam Dev loads about 1.1k tokens when it runs. Until then it costs about 117 tokens; SKILL.md has 388 words of instructions outside code blocks.

Always · name and description, kept in context so the agent knows when to use it: ~117
When it runs · the whole SKILL.md, loaded when a task matches: ~1.1k

Estimates: characters ÷ 4, the usual rule of thumb; real counts depend on the model's tokenizer. Scripts and assets cost tokens only if the agent reads them.

Safety

Auto-check passed

The automated check found no risky patterns in SKILL.md.

Automated static check — not a guarantee. Review scripts before installing. It scans the text of SKILL.md for risky patterns (piping downloads into a shell, reading credential files, hidden Unicode, destructive commands); the scripts in this folder are not scanned.

version: 0.2.0

ClawTeam Local Development

This skill is for developing and validating ClawTeam inside the ClawTeam repository. Use it when the task is about changing ClawTeam itself, testing local behavior, or verifying multi-agent workflows against the current checkout.

Development Bootstrap

Standardize the local development environment with the bootstrap script:

bash

bash scripts/bootstrap_clawteam_dev.sh

This script lives in scripts/bootstrap_clawteam_dev.sh inside this skill folder.

This script does all of the following:

Creates a fixed uv environment at ~/.clawteam-venv
Installs the current repository into that environment with dev dependencies
Writes ~/.local/bin/clawteam to point at the fixed environment
Adds a clawteam() shell function block to ~/.bashrc

After it finishes:

bash

source ~/.bashrc
clawteam --version

Use this bootstrap whenever you want the same clawteam command across different Python environments on the machine.

Project Skill Wiring

To wire another local project so its ./.agents and ./.claude directories use this repository's local ClawTeam skills directly:

bash

bash scripts/link_local_clawteam_skills.sh /path/to/project

This script lives in scripts/link_local_clawteam_skills.sh inside this skill folder.

This creates these symlinks inside the target project:

./.agents/skills/clawteam
./.claude/skills/clawteam

Run the same script again any time you want to refresh or recreate those links.

Typical Uses

Run targeted local validation after code changes
Reproduce a spawn / board / task / inbox / harness bug
Smoke-test the real CLI in tmux or subprocess mode
Review ClawTeam workflows end-to-end from the current repository checkout

Fast Validation

Prefer the smallest validation that proves the change.

bash

ruff check clawteam/ tests/
pytest tests/<target_file>.py -q

Use broader runs only when the change crosses modules:

bash

pytest tests/test_cli_commands.py -q
pytest tests/test_spawn_backends.py -q
pytest tests/test_harness.py tests/test_event_bus.py -q

Show full SKILL.md (163 more words)Show less

Prerequisites

clawteam command available
tmux available
A supported CLI agent such as claude or codex if you are spawning real workers
Current directory is the ClawTeam git repo when testing worktree isolation or local source changes

Local Smoke Test

Use this when you need a real multi-agent workflow check instead of unit tests.

bash

clawteam team spawn-team dev-smoke -d "Local ClawTeam smoke test" -n leader
clawteam task create dev-smoke "Smoke test worker" -o worker1 -p high
clawteam spawn --team dev-smoke --agent-name worker1 --task "Report your status to leader and mark the task completed when done."
clawteam board show dev-smoke
clawteam task wait dev-smoke --timeout 300 --poll-interval 5

If you are validating harness behavior specifically:

bash

clawteam harness conduct dev-harness \
  --goal "Create a small implementation plan and execute it with one worker" \
  --cli codex \
  --agents 1

Cleanup

Use the real ClawTeam commands instead of ad-hoc directory assumptions whenever possible:

bash

clawteam team cleanup dev-smoke
clawteam team cleanup dev-harness

If a crashed tmux session or worktree is left behind, clean it up explicitly after inspecting it.

Development Rules

Prefer clawteam commands over editing state files directly.
Prefer targeted tests over broad end-to-end runs unless the change crosses spawn/runtime/workflow boundaries.
Use board, task wait, and team status to observe behavior before assuming a bug is in the spawn layer.
When testing agent coordination, keep the team small first: one leader and one or two workers.
Only escalate to harness or full swarm tests when the lower-level task/spawn/inbox path already works.

Can I use Clawteam Dev in Cursor, Gemini CLI or GitHub Copilot?

Cursor, Gemini CLI, GitHub Copilot and OpenCode also load SKILL.md folders. With the skills CLI, run `npx skills add HKUDS/ClawTeam --skill clawteam-dev -a cursor` (or -a gemini-cli, github-copilot or opencode for the others). To copy it by hand, put the folder in .cursor/skills/clawteam-dev, .gemini/skills/clawteam-dev, .github/skills/clawteam-dev and .opencode/skills/clawteam-dev in your project.

What does Clawteam Dev need to run?

Going by SKILL.md and its folder, Clawteam Dev needs a shell for the scripts in its folder and the command-line tools its instructions call (pytest, bash and ruff). Our summary lists: Python 3; A Bash shell.
