What ClawHub does
ClawHub is a command-line interface (CLI) tool designed for managing skills within the OpenClaw ecosystem. It allows users to search for, install, verify, update, and uninstall skills that enhance the capabilities of their OpenClaw agents. By using the openclaw skills command, developers can efficiently discover new skills that may not be readily available, ensuring that they can leverage the full potential of their agents without unnecessary delays.
The tool provides a streamlined workflow for managing installed skills. Users can easily list their current skills, check their status, and perform updates to keep them current. The ability to manage both local and global installations means that developers can tailor their environments to suit specific projects or share skills across multiple agents. This flexibility is particularly useful in collaborative settings where consistency is key.
ClawHub also includes features for uninstalling skills, ensuring that users can maintain a clean and efficient workspace. The CLI prompts for user approval before any uninstall action, adding a layer of safety to the process. Additionally, the publishing and syncing capabilities allow developers to contribute their own skills back to the community, fostering a collaborative environment for skill development and sharing.
Overall, ClawHub is an essential tool for developers and designers working with OpenClaw agents, providing them with the necessary functionality to enhance their agents' capabilities effectively. It simplifies the management of skills, making it easier to adapt to changing project requirements and ensuring that users can always find the right tools for their tasks.

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
