clawhub: Discover and Publish OpenClaw Skills and Plugins

Overview

ClawHub provides a shared registry for OpenClaw skills and packages. It addresses the need to discover, version, and distribute agent capabilities through one catalog, with a web interface for browsing and a CLI-friendly API for publishing and installation.

The project covers text-based skills as well as native code and bundle plugins. It is most relevant to people building or using OpenClaw; it is not presented as a general-purpose registry for unrelated agent platforms.

Key Features

• Browse skills and render their SKILL.md content.
• Publish skill versions with changelogs and tags, including latest.
• Search using embeddings and a vector index rather than only keyword matching.
• Install, update, pin, and uninstall skills through the CLI.
• Publish and discover code plugins and bundle plugins through package APIs and CLI flows.
• Support skill ownership workflows, including renaming and merging listings.
• Provide stars, comments, and moderation tools for registry curation.
• Track install counts through optional-to-disable telemetry when logged in.

Use Cases

• OpenClaw users can discover skills and install or update them from the command line.
• Skill authors can publish releases with changelogs and keep listings organized as projects evolve.
• Plugin developers can distribute native code or bundle plugins through the package catalog.
• Registry operators can review and curate listings using moderation features.

Getting Started

For local development, install dependencies with bun install, then follow the environment setup and backend instructions in the README. The hosted registry is available at clawhub.ai; CLI setup and usage are covered in the repository's CLI documentation.

Alternatives

• awesome-copilot: It catalogs and installs community resources for GitHub Copilot, rather than serving as a registry for OpenClaw skills and packages.
• Awesome Agent Skills: It is a directory spanning multiple agent skill ecosystems, not a registry with OpenClaw-specific publishing and install workflows.

Considerations

ClawHub is designed specifically for the OpenClaw ecosystem, so its registry and package workflows may not apply to other agent platforms. Local development requires Bun and configuration for a Convex backend; embedding-based search also requires an OpenAI API key. The README describes whole-agent Claw packages as experimental. Install telemetry is tracked when logged in, but can be disabled with CLAWHUB_DISABLE_TELEMETRY=1.
