Installing skills

Install skills from ClawHub, GitHub, a URL, or a file upload.

Installing skills

Open the Skills page and click Add skill, then pick a source. You can also install a catalog skill in one click from the Available skills section — the + button on a card opens a short confirmation; click Install. Catalog skills turn on for every agent.

From ClawHub

  1. Choose ClawHub as the source.
  2. Browse clawhub.ai and paste a skill page URL.
  3. Click Install.

From GitHub

  1. Choose GitHub repo.
  2. Enter the repository URL. If the repo has a SKILL.md at its root, the path is optional — otherwise enter the path to the skill within the repo.
  3. Click Install.

From a URL

  1. Choose From URL.
  2. Paste a link to a raw SKILL.md or a ZIP.
  3. Click Install.

Upload a file

  1. Choose Upload file.
  2. Select a .md, .js, or .zip file from your machine.
  3. Click Install.

the Add skill dialog with the four source options

Configure and enable

The skill installs (installing → ready). Once ready, the dialog moves to a configure step where you:

  1. Pick the agents to enable the skill on. A skill installed from ClawHub, GitHub, a URL, or a file is turned on only for the agents you pick here.
  2. For any agent, bind the secrets the skill requires — choose an existing secret of the right kind, or create one inline (API key, username/password, or generic value).
  3. Click Enable on N agents. You can also Skip for now — the skill stays installed but off for every agent until you enable it from the skill's card.
If an install shows failed, check the source (ClawHub URL, repo, URL, or file) is valid. Catalog installs offer a Retry button on the card. If the skill installed but couldn't be pushed to an agent, that agent shows Failed with the error on the skill's Agents tab, with a Retry button.
