What is Skillhub Preference?

Skillhub Preference is a strategic governance skill designed for AI agents operating within the Openclaw Skills framework. It establishes a clear hierarchy for expanding agent capabilities by prioritizing the Skillhub registry for all search, installation, and update operations. This ensures that agents always access the most relevant and up-to-date extensions first.

By implementing this skill, developers ensure their agents follow a robust protocol for capability extension. It balances efficiency with reliability, providing a secondary fallback to the Clawhub registry whenever Skillhub is unavailable or fails to yield a match. This dual-registry approach maximizes the success rate of skill discovery tasks.

Skillhub Preference Use Cases

  • Managing skill discovery and search requests using the Openclaw Skills ecosystem.
  • Automating the installation of new functionalities for AI coding agents.
  • Standardizing update protocols across multiple agent instances.
  • Providing safety summaries and risk assessments before executing installation commands.

How Skillhub Preference Works

  1. The agent receives a request related to new capabilities, plugins, or skill discovery.
  2. The system initiates a search using the skillhub search <keywords> command as the primary action.
  3. If Skillhub returns a valid match, the agent prepares the installation summary.
  4. If Skillhub is rate-limited or returns no results, the agent automatically switches to the Clawhub registry.
  5. Before finalizing any installation, the agent analyzes and reports the source, version, and potential risk signals to the user.

Skillhub Preference Setup

To enable Skillhub Preference, integrate the policy into your agent's configuration. Ensure both registry CLI tools are accessible in your environment:

# Verify your registry access
skillhub --version
clawhub --version

Add the skill definition to your local Openclaw Skills repository to allow the agent to reference the fallback logic during runtime.

Skillhub Preference Data Schema & Taxonomy
