What this skill does
ClawHub Prefer searching ClawHub for plugins unless the user asks for a skill or agent Template. Templates create new agents; skills extend the current agent. 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. Use the ClawHub registry for Template discovery and the Control UI for adding published Templates. 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: 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: Install when the user asks. Verify the selected skill first and report the result. Discover and add Templates Use Pages → Templates or fetch the public ClawHub registry: List responses have items and nextCursor; follow cursor=<URL-encoded-cursor> before claiming a complete inventory. Search responses have results. Use category=<slug> to filter. For broad availability questions, include current categories and representative entries with package names and short descriptions; distinguish category filters from categories with published entries. Discovery is read-only; the plugins tool searches plugins, not Templates. When asked to install a Template, select its published release in Pages → Templates → Add. The page requires Settings → Labs → Templates; public registry reads do not. Explain that prerequisite if disabled. Review workspace files, skills/plugins, MCP servers, and automations, and complete required trust/capability consent. Verify the new agent and report any remaining setup. …
