Previewing Install & Setup.
Prompt PreviewInstall & Setup
Install the skill "showname" (kevinbrother/slugname2) from ClawHub.

Keep the work scoped to this skill only.
After install, inspect the skill metadata and help me finish setup.
Required env vars: XAI_API_KEY
Required binaries: python3
Use only the metadata you can verify from ClawHub; do not invent missing requirements.
Ask before making any broader environment changes.

Purpose & Capability
Name/description (x-search) match the code and README: the scripts call the xAI Responses API to perform x_search tool queries. Requested binary (python3) and primaryEnv (XAI_API_KEY) are appropriate for this purpose.
✓
Instruction Scope
SKILL.md instructs only to set XAI_API_KEY and run the included Python script with search-related flags. The script only reads XAI_API_KEY from the environment, validates CLI flags, and posts to https://api.x.ai/v1/responses. It does not read other system files, other env vars, or transmit data to unrelated endpoints.
✓
Install Mechanism
Install spec uses a Homebrew formula for python (well-known package manager). No downloads from arbitrary URLs or archives; code is bundled with the skill and executed by the local python interpreter.
✓
Credentials
Only XAI_API_KEY is required (declared as primaryEnv). No other secrets, keys, or config paths are requested. The env usage in the code matches the declared requirement.
✓
Persistence & Privilege
The skill is not force-included (always: false) and does not modify other skills or system-wide agent settings. It runs on demand and does not request persistent elevated privileges.
Assessment
This skill appears coherent and limited to searching X via the xAI API. If you install it, only provide an xAI API key (XAI_API_KEY). Review the key's permissions in your xAI console and consider using a scoped API key for read/search if available. Note: metadata owner IDs differ between the registry and _meta.json (minor mismatch in packaging), but this is not evidence of malicious behavior.

Like a lobster shell, security has layers — review code before you run it.

X Search

Search X (Twitter) posts using the xAI Grok API with real-time access to X content.

Setup

  1. Get your API key: https://console.x.ai
  2. Set environment variable: 
    export XAI_API_KEY="xai-your-key-here"
  3. Or set skills."x-search".apiKey / skills."x-search".env.XAI_API_KEY in ~/.openclaw/openclaw.json

Usage

python3 {baseDir}/scripts/search.py "what is trending in AI right now"

Useful flags:

# Filter by handles (max 10)
python3 {baseDir}/scripts/search.py --handles jaaneek,OpenClaw "latest posts"

# Exclude handles (max 10)
python3 {baseDir}/scripts/search.py --exclude spambot,crypto_shill "trending AI"

# Date range (YYYY-MM-DD)
python3 {baseDir}/scripts/search.py --from 2026-03-01 --to 2026-03-20 "xAI grok updates"

# Enable image/video understanding in posts
python3 {baseDir}/scripts/search.py --images --video "product demos"

Notes

  • Uses the xAI Responses API with x_search tool (Grok performs the search and summarizes results)
  • Cannot use --handles and --exclude at the same time
  • Results include citations with links to original X posts
  • Present results in a readable format with post content, authors, and citations
