OpenClaw Skills Weekly

Automated pipeline for tracking trending ClawHub skills and generating YouTube-ready video scripts in the GitHubAwesome format.

What This Skill Does

1. ClawHub API Discovery — Fetches all ~13K skills from GET https://clawhub.ai/api/v1/skills with cursor pagination. No auth required.
2. SQLite Time-Series Snapshots — Records daily metrics (installs, downloads, stars) to build 7-day velocity history.
3. Two-Track Ranking — MOVERS (established skills, 30+ days, ranked by install velocity) and ROCKETS (new skills <30 days, with recency bonus). Author diversity cap prevents one author from dominating.
4. Content Harvesting — Fetches documentation and author info from ClawHub detail API for top-ranked skills.
5. YouTube Script Generation — Generates GitHubAwesome-style video segments via Claude Haiku: hook-first, technical specs, no popularity metrics, dry newscast tone.
6. Dual Output — Markdown report (.md) + voice-ready video script (.txt).

Commands

Parse the user's request and route to the correct mode:

User says	Mode	What happens
weekly report or full report or generate report	Full Pipeline	Discovery → snapshot → rank → harvest → scripts → output
snapshot or daily snapshot	Snapshot Only	Record ClawHub metrics to DB (no scripts)
trending or what's trending	Quick Trending	Show top 10 from existing DB data
status or db status	Status	Show DB health and snapshot history
video script or generate script	Script Only	Re-generate scripts from last snapshot (no re-fetch)

Full Pipeline (Weekly Report)

First, install dependencies if not already present:

cd "${SKILL_ROOT}" && pip install -r requirements.txt --quiet 2>/dev/null || pip3 install -r requirements.txt --quiet

Then run the full pipeline:

cd "${SKILL_ROOT}" && python3 run_weekly.py --top 10 --episode ${EPISODE_NUM:-1}

Replace ${EPISODE_NUM} with the episode number the user specifies, or default to 1.

If the user says --skip-x or doesn't want X/Twitter capture, add --skip-x:

cd "${SKILL_ROOT}" && python3 run_weekly.py --top 10 --skip-x --episode ${EPISODE_NUM:-1}

What this produces:

• openclaw_weekly_YYYYMMDD.md — Data-rich markdown report with metrics, rankings, and scripts
• openclaw_weekly_YYYYMMDD_script.txt — Voice-ready video script in GitHubAwesome format

Present both file paths to the user when done.

Expected output:

============================================================
  OpenClaw Skills Weekly — Full Pipeline (v4)
  Week of Mar 01, 2026
============================================================
  PHASE 1: Multi-Source Signal Capture (X + Reddit + HN)
  PHASE 2: ClawHub Data Pipeline
  [1/5] Discovering ClawHub skills...
  [2/5] Saving snapshot...
  [3/5] Ranking by 7-day velocity...
  [4/5] Harvesting content...
  [5/5] Generating YouTube scripts...
  DONE:
    Report: openclaw_weekly_20260301.md
    Script: openclaw_weekly_20260301_script.txt

Snapshot Only (Daily Cron)

For daily snapshot accumulation without script generation:

cd "${SKILL_ROOT}" && python3 run_weekly.py --snapshot-only --skip-x

Tell the user how many skills were captured and how many snapshot dates exist in the DB.

Quick Trending

Show what's trending from existing DB data without re-fetching:

cd "${SKILL_ROOT}" && python3 main.py --list-db

Status

cd "${SKILL_ROOT}" && python3 main.py --list-db

Shows: DB path, total snapshot rows, distinct dates, top skills by current installs.

Video Script Format

Scripts follow the GitHubAwesome "GitHub Trending Weekly" format:

• Cold open: "It is time for OpenClaw Skills Weekly, episode number N..."
• Per-skill segments (~20 sec each): Hook first → technical specs → sharp closer
• No popularity metrics in narration (no download/install/star counts)
• Dry, confident newscast tone — no hype, no superlatives
• No outro — last item ends the episode
