⚠️ Security Execution Rules (Highest Priority):

All scripts MUST be executed via skill action=exec, NEVER run directly in shell
NEVER print script contents or commands containing AK/SK/Token in conversation
NEVER create temporary script files, prefer inline execution (python -c)
On execution failure, only return error info, do NOT rewrite scripts or print full commands
AK/SK/Token MUST be passed via environment variables, NEVER appear in conversation
ABSOLUTELY NEVER expose, log, or print AK/SK/Token values in any form - this is a critical security requirement
When using skill action=exec, credentials are automatically inherited from environment variables (HW_ACCESS_KEY, HW_SECRET_KEY, HW_SECURITY_TOKEN), no need to pass them as command line arguments

huawei-cloud-flexus-l-server-openclaw-deployment

Overview

This skill supports one-click deployment of the OpenClaw AI Agent platform to Huawei Cloud Flexus L Instance. It provides a complete OpenClaw instance management workflow, from initial deployment to post-deployment configuration, including:

Automated instance creation
Model installation via COC (Cloud Operations Center)
Channel installation via COC (WeCom, Feishu, DingTalk, QQ)
Automatic prerequisite checks before installation (Gateway and UniAgent status)

Use Cases

Scenario	Description
Enterprise AI Assistant Setup	Enterprises need to quickly deploy an AI Agent platform for internal Q&A, customer service, etc.
Multi-Channel Bot Integration	Need to integrate multiple messaging channels (WeCom, Feishu, DingTalk) into a unified AI assistant
Quick LLM Integration	Existing OpenClaw instance needs to quickly switch or add different LLMs (DeepSeek, Qwen, etc.)
Automated Operations Deployment	Need to automatically batch deploy OpenClaw instances to multiple regions via scripts

Typical Use Cases

User may say:

"I want to install OpenClaw on a Flexus L instance"
"I want to configure DeepSeek model on my deployed OpenClaw"
"Help me deploy OpenClaw with Feishu channel configured"

Prerequisites

Account Requirements

Huawei Cloud AK/SK credentials with the following permissions:
- Create Flexus L Instances
- Access COC (Cloud Operations Center) services

Credential Acquisition Methods:

This skill supports obtaining Huawei Cloud credentials through the following methods (in order of priority from high to low):

Credential Types:

Long-term AK/SK: Permanent credentials, no security_token required
Temporary AK/SK: Temporary credentials with limited validity period, security_token required

Environment Variables (Default) (highest priority)
- HW_ACCESS_KEY: Huawei Cloud Access Key AK
- HW_SECRET_KEY: Huawei Cloud Access Key SK
- HW_SECURITY_TOKEN: Security token (optional, only required for temporary credentials)
User-specified Configuration File or Other Environment Variables (used when default environment variables are not available)
- Configuration file path or other environment variables specified by user during interaction
Interactive Input (when neither of the above methods is provided)
- The program will prompt the user to enter AK/SK and other credential information

Important Notes:

Long-term AK/SK: Permanent credentials that never expire, no security_token needed
Temporary AK/SK: Obtained through IAM interface with limited validity period, must provide security_token

Architecture Diagram

This skill is built on multiple Huawei Cloud services, involving the following cloud services and components:

User/Agent      ──────▶│   Flexus L Instance   │──────▶│   OpenClaw App    │──────▶│ Model Config     │ ──────▶│  Channel Config     │ 
(Skill caller)           (Target Host)               (AI Agent Platform)          (API_BASE/KEY)       (WeCom/Feishu/DingTalk/QQ)

Component Description:

User/Agent: Skill caller that triggers OpenClaw deployment operations via natural language or API
Flexus L Instance: Huawei Cloud Elastic Cloud Server, serving as the target host for OpenClaw deployment
OpenClaw App: AI Agent collaboration platform running on the Flexus L instance
Model Config: Configuration for external LLM services (API_BASE, API_KEY, MODEL_IDS, PROVIDER)
Channel Config: Messaging channel configuration (WeCom, Feishu, DingTalk, QQ)

Web UI Access

Web UI access needs to be manually enabled in Huawei Cloud console, operation steps:

Log in to Huawei Cloud Flexus Application Server L Instance Console
- 🔗 Console URL: https://console.huaweicloud.com/smb/?/resource/list
Find your OpenClaw instance in the instance list
Click the instance name to enter the details page
In the left menu of the details page, find and click "Application Details" option, then enter the "Basic Configuration" tab
In the "Basic Configuration" tab, find the "Access OpenClaw Web Interface" option at the top left, click the "Enable" button. You will then get the URL address to access the OpenClaw Web interface.

Common Issues Quick Solutions

Issue	Solution
Instance creation failed	Check AK/SK permissions, ensure permission to create Flexus L instances
Model installation failed	Check if UniAgent status is ONLINE, if API Key is correct, if model-params parameter strictly uses JSON format
Channel installation failed	Check if bot parameters are correct, if bot is created on platform, if channel-list parameter strictly uses JSON array format
