Install and configure the OpenViking long-term memory plugin for OpenClaw via natural conversation. Once installed, the plugin automatically captures important facts from chats and recalls relevant context before each reply (auto-capture + auto-recall, cross-session). Covers prerequisites check, plugin install through OpenClaw's plugin manager first, with ov-install only as a backup path, wizard-based configuration, slot activation, gateway restart, verification, plus multi-tenant root-key support, multi-instance, and uninstall. Trigger when the user says any of: "install OpenViking", "set up memory", "configure memory plugin", "add long-term memory", "connect to OpenViking server", "RAG", "semantic memory", "帮我装 OpenViking", "配置记忆插件", "安装记忆功能", "接入 OpenViking", "我有一台 OpenViking 服务器". The user does NOT need to know any CLI commands — the agent runs everything and only asks for a few values. This skill assumes the OpenViking server is already running. If the server is not ready, the skill tells the user to con
Use OpenViking from OpenClaw through @openviking/openclaw-plugin: long-term memory, session archives, resource and Agent Skill import, semantic recall, recall trace debugging, and externalized tool-result recovery. Prefer this skill when the user wants to use, query, debug, or operate OpenViking context from an OpenClaw agent. For first-time plugin installation, use the install-openviking-memory skill instead.
Load when an agent needs to add, manage, browse, search, modify, or remove resources in OpenViking. Trigger on explicit user requests about resource management or context search, when the user mentions `ov add-resource`, `ov task watch`, `ov export`, `ov import`, `ov backup`, `ov restore`, `ov ls`, `ov tree`, `ov read`, `ov write`, `ov mkdir`, `ov rm`, `ov mv`, `ov find`, `ov search`, `ov grep`, `ov glob`, or when an agent needs to inspect, search, or organize the `viking://resources/` namespace.
Load when the user asks to add, import, compile, or ingest a research paper/PDF into OpenViking, especially when they mention ov-add-paper, ARA, claims, evidence, figures, tables, or paper-to-OV knowledge resources.
Load when an agent needs to manage, install, update, remove, or validate OpenViking skills via the `ov skills` CLI. Trigger on explicit user requests about skill management, when the user mentions `ov skills`, `install skill`, `update skill`, `delete skill`, `validate skill`, or when an agent needs to discover what skills are available on the OpenViking server.
Use when the user explicitly types `ov dream` or `ov recall <query>` and the request should be routed to the OpenViking sync/recall CLI instead of handled as normal chat.

Fast CLI to summarize URLs, local files, and YouTube links.
Use this skill immediately when the user asks any of:
yt-dlp needed)summarize "https://example.com" --model google/gemini-3-flash-preview
summarize "/path/to/file.pdf" --model google/gemini-3-flash-preview
summarize "https://youtu.be/dQw4w9WgXcQ" --youtube auto
Best-effort transcript (URLs only):
summarize "https://youtu.be/dQw4w9WgXcQ" --youtube auto --extract-only
If the user asked for a transcript but it’s huge, return a tight summary first, then ask which section/time range to expand.
