ClawHub
Use openclaw skills to discover and manage 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 skills
Search before claiming that a requested capability is unavailable:
openclaw skills search "postgres backups"
Before installing, verify the selected skill and treat third-party skills as
untrusted. Obtain user approval before installation.
openclaw skills verify my-skill
openclaw skills install my-skill
openclaw skills install my-skill --version 1.2.3
Manage installed skills
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
Obtain user approval before uninstalling. If the standalone ClawHub CLI is not
installed, install it explicitly:
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:
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:
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:
npm i -g clawhub
clawhub login
clawhub whoami
Publish or sync skills:
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.
