EXTENSION_NAME="${1}"
REPO="https://github.com/sbusso/claudeclaw-${EXTENSION_NAME}.git"
EXT_DIR="extensions/claudeclaw-${EXTENSION_NAME}"
[ -d "$EXT_DIR" ] && echo "Extension claudeclaw-${EXTENSION_NAME} is already installed." && exit 0
If already installed, ask if the user wants to update instead (git pull + rebuild).
mkdir -p extensions
git clone "$REPO" "$EXT_DIR"
cat "$EXT_DIR/manifest.json"
If manifest.json has a dependencies field, install them at the root:
cd "$(git rev-parse --show-toplevel)" && npm install <each dependency with version>
cd "$EXT_DIR" && npx tsc
If manifest.json has hooks.postInstall:
chmod +x "$EXT_DIR/hooks/install.sh"
bash "$EXT_DIR/hooks/install.sh" "$(git rev-parse --show-toplevel)"
This copies skills, agents, and agent skills into the ClaudeClaw root.

Add /compact command for manual context compaction. Solves context rot in long sessions by forwarding the SDK's built-in /compact slash command. Main-group or trusted sender only.
Add image vision to ClaudeClaw agents. Resizes and processes WhatsApp image attachments, then sends them to Claude as multimodal content blocks.
Add Ollama MCP server so the container agent can call local models for cheaper/faster tasks like summarization, translation, or general queries.
Add PDF reading to ClaudeClaw agents. Extracts text from PDFs via pdftotext CLI. Handles WhatsApp attachments, URLs, and local files.
Add Agent Swarm (Teams) support to Telegram. Each subagent gets its own bot identity in the group. Requires Telegram channel to be set up first (use /add-telegram). Triggers on "agent swarm", "agent teams telegram", "telegram swarm", "bot pool".
Switch from Docker to Apple Container for macOS-native container isolation. Use when the user wants Apple Container instead of Docker, or is setting up on macOS and prefers the native runtime. Triggers on "apple container", "convert to apple container", "switch to apple container", or "use apple container".
