OpenClaw Skill Growth

Make OpenClaw Skills observable, diagnosable, and safely improvable over time. Use this when the user wants to maintain many SKILL.md files, inspect repeated...

Security Scan

This is a lightweight, instruction-only wrapper that points users to a GitHub project for skill-maintenance; its declared purpose, requirements, and instructions are coherent and proportionate.

Purpose & Capability

The name/description (skill maintenance, observation, propose/apply flows) align with the instructions and included docs. The package is explicitly a ClawHub wrapper that points to a GitHub repo; it does not request unrelated credentials or binaries.

Instruction Scope

SKILL.md instructs the user/agent to clone the GitHub repo and run npm scripts (scan, analyze, propose, report, apply). Those commands legitimately operate on local skill directories and run logs and can modify SKILL.md files when you execute an "apply" flow—this is expected for the stated purpose but means you should review proposals and use demo:dry-run before making changes.

Install Mechanism

No install spec in the wrapper itself (instruction-only). The README/INSTALL.md points to a GitHub repo and npm install/build/test steps for the real project — a standard approach. Note: installing the full project will run npm install and pull packages from the registry, which is typical but worth auditing if you require a fully locked supply chain.

Credentials

This wrapper declares no required environment variables, credentials, or config paths. The underlying project may require filesystem access (to skill dirs and run logs) and possibly repository/git credentials if you exercise apply flows against remote repositories, but nothing in this wrapper unexpectedly asks for secrets.

Persistence & Privilege

always is false and the skill does not request elevated or persistent platform privileges. The agent may invoke the skill autonomously (default), which is normal; this combined with the ability to run apply flows means the user should control when the plugin is run and prefer dry-run first.

Assessment

This wrapper is coherent and intended only to help you discover and run the full OpenClaw Skill Growth project. Before using it: (1) inspect the upstream GitHub repo and release to confirm authenticity, (2) run demo:dry-run and review generated proposals/patches before running any apply command, (3) if you run npm install for the full project, consider doing so in an isolated environment or CI runner and review dependencies, and (4) be cautious if you provide repository credentials or run apply against real skill directories because apply can modify SKILL.md files and bump versions.

A ClawHub entry skill for the OpenClaw Skill Growth plugin.

It helps users discover and operate a GitHub project that turns static SKILL.md files into observable, diagnosable, safely improvable capabilities.

Important: this package is an entry skill and usage wrapper, not the full plugin source code.

Best for

Use this skill when a user wants to:

• maintain a growing library of OpenClaw skills
• see which skills are repeatedly failing or underperforming
• generate reviewable improvement proposals from real run history
• preview patches before changing skill files
• apply updates with backups, version bumping, and change history
• dry-run a skill update process before writing anything
• evaluate whether a skill change actually improved outcomes

Not for

Do not use this skill when the user only wants to:

• read or summarize a normal web page
• install an unrelated plugin
• optimize a workflow that has nothing to do with OpenClaw skills
• upload an entire TypeScript repository into ClawHub as if it were a single skill

Core idea

The underlying project provides a maintenance loop for OpenClaw Skills:

Observe → Diagnose → Propose → Apply → Evaluate

What the GitHub project includes

• skill registry from SKILL.md
• structured run observation
• diagnosis of recurring failures and weak outcomes
• improvement proposal generation
• patch preview generation
• guarded apply flows with backups
• version bumping and applied change history
• dry-run support
• evaluation record generation
• demo fixtures and CI

Install the real project

git clone https://github.com/Shuai-DaiDai/openclaw-skill-growth.git
cd openclaw-skill-growth
npm install
npm run build
npm run test

Common commands

npm run scan
npm run analyze
npm run propose
npm run report
npm run apply
npm run demo:dry-run

Recommended usage path

1. Point the plugin at a skill directory.
2. Feed it run logs.
3. Run report or analyze.
4. Review diagnoses and proposals.
5. Use demo:dry-run first.
6. Apply only after review.
7. Compare outcomes and keep iterating.

Why this is useful

Most skill systems stay static even while tools, environments, models, and task patterns keep changing.

This project is for users who want skill maintenance to become a real operational loop instead of a manual prompt-editing chore.

ClawHub note

This package is a wrapper skill around the GitHub project.

Use it to discover, install, and operate the plugin. It is intentionally lighter than the full repository. package for discovery and installation guidance
