FAQPage Schema
How do I create and configure an AI agent skill for OpenClaw?▼

To create an OpenClaw-compatible AI agent skill, you author a `SKILL.md` file containing YAML frontmatter and Markdown instructions, then define gating requirements and environment variables for automatic setup. This process ensures seamless integration and discoverability within the platform.

How do I set up environment variables and auto-installers for custom AI skills?▼

You set up environment variables and auto-installers for custom AI skills by defining gating requirements and API keys directly within the skill configuration. This allows the orchestration platform to automatically install necessary command-line tools and configure dependencies upon loading.

How do I publish custom skills to the ClawHub registry?▼

Publishing custom skills to the ClawHub registry involves configuring the skill metadata for visibility and loading, then deploying the completed `SKILL.md` file through the platform's publishing mechanism. This makes the skill discoverable and available for conditional loading.

Does OpenClaw support conditional loading of skills based on system prerequisites?▼

Yes, OpenClaw supports conditional loading of skills based on system prerequisites. By defining gating requirements in the skill configuration, the orchestration platform ensures the skill only loads when specific command-line tools and environment dependencies are met.

What is the best way to manage user-invocable commands in an AI agent skill?▼

The best way to manage user-invocable commands in an AI agent skill is to define them within the `SKILL.md` file during the skill authoring process. This configuration allows the orchestration platform to properly dispatch tools and execute commands based on user input.
