What it does

Clawhub is an agent skill from openclaw/openclaw. Search ClawHub for plugins by default, or skills when explicitly requested; install, verify, update, uninstall, publish, or sync skills.

Its SKILL.md is about 720 tokens, which your agent loads only when the skill is triggered. It is a single SKILL.md file with no bundled scripts.

The repository describes itself as: The AI that really does things. Any OS. Any Platform. The lobster way. 🦞. The licence is MIT.

Example prompts

  • “/clawhub”

Requirements

  • Node.js

What it can do on your machine

Read from SKILL.md and the folder at commit f8e594e. 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

    Shell commands in SKILL.md call:

    • npm

    From the folder's file list and the shell code blocks in SKILL.md.

  • Network

    Links to these hosts (documentation or services it may open):

    • clawhub.ai

    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

Clawhub loads about 724 tokens when it runs. Until then it costs about 36 tokens; SKILL.md has 278 words of instructions outside code blocks.

Always · name and description, kept in context so the agent knows when to use it
~36
When it runs · the whole SKILL.md, loaded when a task matches
~724

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); files beside SKILL.md are not scanned.

ClawHub

Prefer searching ClawHub for plugins unless the user explicitly asks for a skill. Search before claiming that a requested capability is unavailable.

Use openclaw skills for explicitly requested skill discovery and for managing skills for the current OpenClaw agent. Use the standalone clawhub CLI to uninstall installed ClawHub skills and for publishing, syncing, and publisher account workflows.

Discover plugins (default)

Use the plugins tool when available, with action: "search" and query set to the requested capability, to return native plugin search results. If the tool is unavailable, use the CLI:

bash
openclaw plugins search "notion"

A discovery request does not authorize installation. Install only when the user asks.

Discover skills (explicit requests)

When the user explicitly asks for a skill, search skills instead of plugins:

bash
openclaw skills search "postgres backups"

Install when the user asks. Verify the selected skill first and report the result.

bash
openclaw skills verify my-skill
openclaw skills install my-skill
openclaw skills install my-skill --version 1.2.3

Manage installed skills

bash
openclaw skills list
openclaw skills check
openclaw skills update my-skill
openclaw skills update --all

Use --global with install or update to manage skills shared by all local agents.

Remove an installed skill

Uninstall when the user asks. If the standalone ClawHub CLI is not installed, install it explicitly:

bash
npm i -g clawhub
clawhub uninstall @owner/my-skill

The CLI asks for confirmation before removing the skill and its lockfile entry. Use the original agent workspace for agent-specific skills or the OpenClaw state directory for skills installed with --global:

bash
clawhub --workdir /path/to/agent-workspace uninstall @owner/my-skill
clawhub --workdir ~/.openclaw uninstall @owner/my-skill

If OPENCLAW_STATE_DIR is set, use its value instead of ~/.openclaw:

bash
clawhub --workdir "$OPENCLAW_STATE_DIR" uninstall @owner/my-skill

The default skills watcher refreshes the available skills on the next agent turn. If watching is disabled, start a new session.

Publish skills

Install the standalone ClawHub CLI for publisher workflows:

bash
npm i -g clawhub
clawhub login
clawhub whoami

Publish or sync skills:

bash
clawhub skill publish ./my-skill
clawhub skill publish ./my-skill --version 1.2.3
clawhub sync --all

Notes

  • Public registry: https://clawhub.ai
  • openclaw skills install installs into the active workspace by default.
  • Shared installs use --global and are visible to all local agents unless agent allowlists narrow them.
