Please help me install this Agent Skill. Skill: execution Source: https://github.com/jholhewres/devclaw/tree/main/pkg/devclaw/copilot/builtin/skills/execution Command: npx skills add https://github.com/jholhewres/devclaw --skill execution-jholhewres
Enables direct execution and orchestration of shell commands across local and remote machines, removing the friction of switching contexts and manually handling file transfers and environment setup.
Ask the execution skill to run a local git status, SCP the latest build to the production host, and SSH into the server to restart the service.

Run shell commands on a remote server via SSH by connecting through ~/.ssh/config host aliases or direct host addresses. This requires configured SSH keys and appropriate user permissions for the requested operations. Session persistence allows setting environment variables and chaining commands reliably.
Yes, you can use SCP to transfer files for deployment workflows. The execution skill supports uploading and downloading artifacts to and from remote hosts to facilitate build, deploy, or debugging tasks without switching contexts.
Orchestrate local builds and remote restarts by running a local build, using SCP to transfer the build artifact to the production host, and executing an SSH command to restart the service within a single session without leaving the agent context.
Yes, executing remote shell commands and transferring files requires system shell access, configured SSH keys, and a ~/.ssh/config setup for remote hosts to ensure secure authentication and connectivity for remote operations.
Yes, you can set environment variables for a local bash execution session. The skill supports session persistence, allowing you to chain commands reliably and use sandboxed exec for limited runs.
Sandboxed exec is intended for limited runs of shell commands. While it provides a restricted execution environment, complex remote orchestration still requires proper SSH configuration and direct host connections for deployment and maintenance tasks.
