OpenClaw EverMemory Installer

Use this skill when installing, upgrading, verifying, or publishing the EverMemory OpenClaw plugin and its companion skill, including local path install, npm install, ClawHub publish, and release-gate verification.

Overview

This skill standardizes the end-to-end operator workflow for EverMemory:

• install plugin into OpenClaw (openclaw plugins install)
• bind and verify runtime (plugins.slots.memory=evermemory)
• publish/install the companion skill through ClawHub (clawhub publish/install)
• prepare and publish plugin package (npm publish)

Use this skill whenever the user asks to:

• install EverMemory in a new OpenClaw instance
• upgrade EverMemory safely with validation
• publish EverMemory skill to the OpenClaw skill site (ClawHub)
• publish EverMemory plugin package for openclaw plugins install <npm-spec>

Quick Workflow

1. Run release gates first:

bash

npm run teams:dev
npm run teams:release

2. Install plugin from local repo path:

bash

bash scripts/install_plugin.sh --source local --link --bind-slot --restart-gateway

3. Verify runtime:

bash

bash scripts/verify_install.sh

4. Publish skill to ClawHub:

bash

bash scripts/publish_skill.sh --version 0.1.0 --changelog "Initial public release"

5. Publish plugin to npm:

bash

bash scripts/publish_plugin.sh --dry-run
# remove --dry-run when ready and logged in

Installation Modes

Use one of these plugin install paths:

1. Local workspace path (recommended for development):

bash

bash scripts/install_plugin.sh --source local --link

2. Package archive (.tgz/.zip):

bash

bash scripts/install_plugin.sh --source archive --value /tmp/evermemory-release/evermemory-0.0.1.tgz

3. npm spec:

bash

bash scripts/install_plugin.sh --source spec --value your-scope/evermemory@0.0.1

Publish Requirements

Before publishing skill or plugin:

• clawhub whoami must succeed
• npm whoami must succeed
• npm run teams:release must pass
• recall benchmark must remain >=0.90 (target >=0.95)

If clawhub whoami fails, run:

bash

clawhub login

If npm whoami fails, run:

bash

npm login

Script Reference

• scripts/install_plugin.sh
  • Installs EverMemory plugin via local/spec/archive
  • Optional slot bind + gateway restart
• scripts/verify_install.sh
  • Validates gateway/plugins/slot binding
• scripts/publish_skill.sh
  • Publishes the skill folder to ClawHub
• scripts/publish_plugin.sh
  • Runs release pack + npm publish (supports --dry-run)

Safety Rules

1. Never publish when teams:release fails.
2. Never force-enable plugin without checking openclaw gateway status.
3. Never claim publish succeeded without capturing command output and artifact path.
4. Prefer --dry-run first for npm publish.
