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...

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:

npm run teams:dev
npm run teams:release

2. Install plugin from local repo path:

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

3. Verify runtime:

bash scripts/verify_install.sh

4. Publish skill to ClawHub:

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

5. Publish plugin to npm:

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

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

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

3. npm spec:

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:

clawhub login

If npm whoami fails, run:

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.
