Auto-Updater Skill

Keep your Clawdbot and skills up to date automatically with daily update checks.

What It Does

This skill sets up a daily cron job that:

1. Updates Clawdbot itself (via clawdbot doctor or package manager)
2. Updates all installed skills (via clawdhub update --all)
3. Messages you with a summary of what was updated

Setup

Quick Start

Ask Clawdbot to set up the auto-updater:

text

Set up daily auto-updates for yourself and all your skills.

Or manually add the cron job:

bash

clawdbot cron add \
  --name "Daily Auto-Update" \
  --cron "0 4 * * *" \
  --tz "America/Los_Angeles" \
  --session isolated \
  --wake now \
  --deliver \
  --message "Run daily auto-updates: check for Clawdbot updates and update all skills. Report what was updated."

Configuration Options

Option	Default	Description
Time	4:00 AM	When to run updates (use --cron to change)
Timezone	System default	Set with --tz
Delivery	Main session	Where to send the update summary

How Updates Work

Clawdbot Updates

For npm/pnpm/bun installs:

bash

npm update -g clawdbot@latest

For source installs (git checkout):

bash

clawdbot update

Always run clawdbot doctor after updating to apply migrations.

Skill Updates

bash

clawdhub update --all

This checks all installed skills against the registry and updates any with new versions available.

Troubleshooting

Updates Not Running
