Skills repository for GoClaw AI assistant
Set up
Skills are installed by placing their folder where your agent loads skills.
The download comes from github.com/jholhewres/devclaw-skills itself, not from our server, so what you get is exactly what its author published.
Install instructions come from the README
Skills do not use an MCP config. Follow the steps in the README below.

synced Oct 26, 2026DevClaw Skills Catalog
Official skill collection for DevClaw — the AI agent for developers.
Skills teach the agent how to use CLI tools, APIs, and workflows by injecting contextual instructions into the LLM prompt. They do not register new tools — they leverage existing native tools (bash, ssh, scp, read_file, write_file, memory_save, cron_add, etc.).
Starter Pack (docker, git, npm, go, ssh, github) is embedded in the DevClaw binary and pre-selected during setup. Everything else lives here.

Creating a Skill
Each skill is a directory with a SKILL.md file:
skills/my-skill/
└── SKILL.md
SKILL.md Format
---
name: my-skill
description: "What this skill teaches the agent"

# My Skill
Instructions for the agent. Tell it which **native tools** to use
(bash, ssh, read_file, etc.) and provide concrete command examples.
Frontmatter Fields
| Field | Required | Description |
|---|---|---|
name | yes | Unique identifier (lowercase-dashes) |
description | yes | Brief description |
version | no | Semver version |
category | no | builtin, data, development, productivity, infra, media, communication |
tags | no | Tags for search and filtering |
requires.bins | no | Required CLI tools (all must be present) |
requires.any_bins | no | CLI tools (at least one required) |
requires.env | no | Required environment variables |
requires.any_env | no | Env vars (at least one required) |
Key Principle
Skills do not register new tools. They teach the LLM to use existing native tools:
| Native Tool | What it does |
|---|---|
bash | Execute any shell command |
ssh / scp | Remote commands and file transfer |
read_file / write_file / edit_file | File operations |
web_search / web_fetch | Web search and fetch |
memory_save / memory_search | Long-term memory |
vault_get / vault_save | Encrypted secrets |
cron_add / cron_list | Scheduling |
