What is Skill Lookup?
The Skill Lookup skill enables AI agents to dynamically expand their capabilities by accessing a vast library of Openclaw Skills. By leveraging Model Context Protocol (MCP) tools, it allows users to search the prompts.chat registry, browse technical documentation, and seamlessly install new workflows directly into their local agent environment.
This skill is essential for developers looking to automate the lifecycle of skill discovery and deployment. It ensures that your AI agents remain versatile and up-to-date with the latest community-driven Openclaw Skills, allowing for a highly customized and powerful agentic experience.
Skill Lookup Use Cases
- Searching for specific automation workflows or coding helpers within the Openclaw Skills ecosystem.
- Browsing skill catalogs by category or tag to find new ways to extend agent functionality.
- Automating the installation of complex AI agent components into the local .claude/skills/ directory.
- Discovering Openclaw Skills authored by the community to avoid reinventing existing solutions.
How Skill Lookup Works
- The agent initiates a search using the search_skills tool based on user keywords, categories, or tags.
- It presents a filtered list of Openclaw Skills, including titles, descriptions, authors, and file manifests.
- Upon user selection, the get_skill tool retrieves the full skill package, including metadata and helper scripts.
- The skill automatically creates the necessary directory structure at .claude/skills/{slug}/ and saves the files locally.
- It verifies the installation by checking the SKILL.md file and provides a summary of the new capabilities and activation triggers.
Skill Lookup Setup
To utilize Skill Lookup for managing your Openclaw Skills, ensure your environment is configured for MCP tools.
# Skills are installed to your local project directory
mkdir -p .claude/skills/
Once the MCP server is active, you can simply ask your agent to find skills related to your task, such as 'find a skill for code review'.
Skill Lookup Data Schema & Taxonomy
The skill organizes data within a structured hierarchy to ensure compatibility across Openclaw Skills environments:
| Component | Path | Description |
|---|---|---|
| Skill Root | .claude/skills/{slug}/ | The primary container for the individual skill. |
| Manifest | SKILL.md | Contains the name, description, and workflow instructions. |
| Scripts | {slug}/*.js, *.py | Optional helper scripts or executable logic. |
| Config | config.json | Specific configuration parameters for the skill. |
Skill Lookup Advanced Features
- Category and tag-based filtering for precise discovery of Openclaw Skills.
- Automated directory management and file verification during the installation lifecycle.
- Support for multi-file skill packages including reference documentation and configuration files.
