ClawHub
ClawHub is the OpenClaw skills registry. It is the shared catalog where skills are published, discovered, versioned, and moderated.
What ClawHub is
- A public registry for OpenClaw skills.
- A versioned store of skill bundles and metadata.
- A discovery surface for search, tags, and usage signals.
How it works
- A user publishes a skill bundle (files + metadata).
- ClawHub stores the bundle, parses metadata, and assigns a version.
- The registry indexes the skill for search and discovery.
- Users browse, download, and install skills in OpenClaw.
What you can do
- Publish new skills and new versions of existing skills.
- Discover skills by name, tags, or search.
- Download skill bundles and inspect their files.
- Report skills that are abusive or unsafe.
- If you are a moderator, hide, unhide, delete, or ban.
Skill system overview
A skill is a versioned bundle of files that teaches OpenClaw how to perform a specific task. Each publish creates a new version, and the registry keeps a history of versions so users can audit changes.
A typical skill includes:
- A
SKILL.mdfile with the primary description and usage. - Optional configs, scripts, or supporting files used by the skill.
- Metadata such as tags, summary, and install requirements.
ClawHub uses metadata to power discovery and safely expose skill capabilities. The registry also tracks usage signals (such as stars and downloads) to improve ranking and visibility.
Security and moderation
ClawHub is open by default. Anyone can upload skills, but a GitHub account must be at least one week old to publish. This helps slow down abuse without blocking legitimate contributors.
Reporting and moderation:
- Any signed in user can report a skill.
- Report reasons are required and recorded.
- Each user can have up to 20 active reports at a time.
- Skills with more than 3 unique reports are auto hidden by default.
- Moderators can view hidden skills, unhide them, delete them, or ban users.
- Abusing the report feature can result in account bans.
